54/ 100Needs work

On November 4, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 8 pages and 54 assets of www.bvcvet.ca, starting from https://www.bvcvet.ca/. It scored 54 out of 100, a result that needs work. 9 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by broken links (21), non-200 responses (21), meta descriptions (5); 16 checks passed. Most of the points went to broken links (−20), non-200 responses (−10), meta descriptions (−5.7). 8 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 4 checks were not run because the crawl fetched nothing for them. The list below shows each check's result, the fix plan, when present, explains what to do first, and the security review at the end of the page covers headers, transport, libraries and exposed files.

Fix plan

Written by gpt-4o-mini from the scan findings

Your site has several critical issues, particularly broken links and non-200 responses. Addressing these will greatly improve your SEO health score. Additionally, update title tags, meta descriptions, and provide alt text for images. Finally, implement a sitemap for better indexing.

  1. 1

    Fix Broken Links

    Why: There are 111 internal links leading to broken URLs, harming user experience and SEO.

    How: Identify the broken links and either restore the pages or remove the links. Review the anchor text and context for relevance.

    Evidence: https://www.bvcvet.ca/about-us/ answers Failed: connection timed out (UND_ERR_CONNECT_TIMEOUT), and 7 pages link to it with anchor text such as "About Us".

    7 pages affected

    Depends on: If the destination was deleted on purpose, remove the links rather than redirecting to an unrelated page.

    Checks: broken-links

  2. 2

    Resolve Non-200 Responses

    Why: 33 URLs returned non-200 responses, negatively impacting crawl performance.

    How: Check and fix errors by either restoring pages to return a 200 status or updating links accordingly.

    Checks: status-codes

  3. 3

    Shorten Title Tags

    Why: 2 title tags exceed optimal length, which may hurt visibility in search results.

    How: Revise title tags to be concise, ideally under 60 characters, while retaining relevance.

    Checks: titles

  4. 4

    Revise Meta Descriptions

    Why: 5 meta descriptions are too long, which can reduce click-through rates.

    How: Update meta descriptions to be engaging and under 160 characters.

    Checks: meta-descriptions

  5. 5

    Add Alt Text to Images

    Why: 5 images lack alt text, which affects accessibility and SEO.

    How: Provide descriptive alt text for each image to enhance indexing and usability.

    Checks: images-alt

  6. 6

    Implement Sitemap

    Why: No sitemap is available, affecting search engine crawling and indexing.

    How: Create a sitemap at /sitemap.xml and ensure it's linked in robots.txt.

    Checks: sitemap-coverage

Security review

Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawl

The website lacks several important security headers, which can expose it to potential attacks such as clickjacking and script injection. Additionally, it is using an outdated version of jQuery with known vulnerabilities. Implementing appropriate security headers and upgrading libraries is crucial to enhance the site's security posture.

  • 0 high
  • 3 medium
  • 2 low
  • 1 info
  1. 1

    Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium

    Why it matters: Without a CSP, the site is vulnerable to XSS attacks as it allows scripts from any source.

    Fix: Add the header `Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';` to all HTML pages.

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  2. 2

    Missing X-Frame-OptionsMedium

    Why it matters: Absence of this header allows the site to be framed, exposing it to clickjacking attacks.

    Fix: Implement the header `X-Frame-Options: DENY` on all HTML pages.

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  3. 3

    Outdated jQuery LibraryMedium

    Why it matters: Using jQuery 1.12.4 presents multiple known vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

    Fix: Upgrade jQuery to at least version 3.5.0.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  4. 4

    Missing X-Content-Type-OptionsLow

    Why it matters: Without this header, browsers may interpret files as the wrong type, which can lead to security risks.

    Fix: Add the header `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` to all HTML pages.

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  5. 5

    Missing Referrer-PolicyLow

    Why it matters: Not having a referrer-policy could expose sensitive URL information when navigating away from the site.

    Fix: Set the header `Referrer-Policy: no-referrer` on all HTML pages.

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  6. 6

    Missing Permissions PolicyInfo

    Why it matters: The lack of a permissions policy may allow unnecessary access to sensitive features (e.g., camera, geolocation).

    Fix: Add the header `Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=()`, or restrict as needed, to all HTML pages.

    Evidence: Permissions policy

What the checks found

  • FoundContent Security PolicyMedium

    None of the 7 HTML pages send a Content-Security-Policy header or meta tag, so the browser has no restriction on where scripts, styles and frames may load from.

  • FoundMIME sniffing protectionLow

    No HTML page sends x-content-type-options. Without X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff a browser may run a file as a script because of its contents rather than its declared type.

    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/cookie-policy/ → no x-content-type-options
  • FoundReferrer policyLow

    No HTML page sends referrer-policy. Without a Referrer-Policy the full page address, including any query string, is sent to every site a visitor clicks through to.

    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/ → no referrer-policy
    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/veterinary-services/referrals/ → no referrer-policy

    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/cookie-policy/ → no referrer-policy
  • FoundPermissions policyInfo

    No HTML page sends permissions-policy. A Permissions-Policy header turns off browser features the site does not use (camera, microphone, geolocation), limiting what an injected script could do.

    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/ → no permissions-policy
    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/veterinary-services/referrals/ → no permissions-policy

    • https://www.bvcvet.ca/cookie-policy/ → no permissions-policy
  • FoundVulnerable JavaScript librariesMedium

    1 library with published vulnerabilities: jQuery 1.12.4. Whether they are exploitable depends on how the site uses them, but each has a fixed release.

    • jQuery 1.12.4 in https://www.bvcvet.ca/wp-content/plugins/dmm-consent-guard/assets/lib/jquery-1.…: CVE-2015-9251 (XSS via cross-domain AJAX), CVE-2019-11358 (prototype pollution), CVE-2020-11022, CVE-2020-11023 (XSS via HTML passed to DOM methods); fixed in 3.5.0
  • NoteThird-party scripts

    Scripts run from 3 other domains without Subresource Integrity, so a compromise of any of them changes what runs on this site. (Tag managers and analytics rarely support SRI; a Content-Security-Policy that names these hosts is the usual control.)

    • www.googletagmanager.com (7 script tags)
    • c2t.zwt.co (7 script tags)
    • www.google.com (1 script tag)
7 checks passed, 2 not applicable
  • OKHTTPS

    All 7 crawled pages were served over HTTPS.

  • OKHTTP Strict Transport Security

    strict-transport-security is set on all 7 HTML pages.

  • OKSoftware version disclosure

    The Server header names a product without a version, and there is no X-Powered-By header.

  • OKMixed content

    No HTTPS page loads a script, stylesheet, font or image over plain HTTP.

  • OKForms over HTTPS

    1 form found, all on HTTPS pages posting to HTTPS addresses.

  • OKKeys and secrets in page code

    No API keys, tokens or private keys were found in the sampled HTML and scripts.

  • OKExposed files and listings

    None of the crawled URLs is a configuration file, backup, dump, repository folder or directory listing.

  • Not applicableCookie flags

    The crawl set no cookies, so there are no cookie flags to check.

  • Not applicableSensitive paths in robots.txt

    No robots.txt was fetched.
