75/ 100Good

On October 23, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 841 pages and 480 assets of www.dentalchoice.ca, starting from https://www.dentalchoice.ca/. It scored 75 out of 100, a good result. 13 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by heavy assets (40), meta descriptions (213), redirects (438); 8 checks passed. Most of the points went to heavy assets (−6), meta descriptions (−4.5), redirects (−4). 12 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 some key SEO issues, particularly with broken links, redirects, and meta descriptions. Prioritizing these fixes will improve user experience and search engine visibility.

  1. 1

    Fix Broken Links

    Why: 11 internal links point to broken URLs, leading to 404 errors.

    How: Update the internal links to point to the correct pages or remove them altogether.

    Checks: broken-links

  2. 2

    Resolve Redirects

    Why: 424 URLs are redirecting, adding unnecessary hops and slowing site speed.

    How: Identify the chained redirects and consolidate to direct links where possible.

    Checks: redirects

  3. 3

    Improve Meta Descriptions

    Why: 213 pages have meta description issues, affecting click-through rates.

    How: Craft unique, compelling meta descriptions for these pages.

    Evidence: 94 pages have no meta description at all.

    94 pages affected

    Checks: meta-descriptions

  4. 4

    Fix Title Tag Issues

    Why: 37 pages have title issues that could hinder search engine rankings.

    How: Revise the titles to ensure they are unique, descriptive, and within recommended length.

    Checks: titles

  5. 5

    Optimize Heavy Assets

    Why: 40 heavy assets can slow down loading time, impacting user experience.

    How: Compress images above 500 KB and consider lazy loading for better performance.

    Evidence: 4.2 MB of image, loaded by 6 pages, so every visitor to any of them downloads it.

    6 pages affected

    Depends on: If it is a download rather than part of the page, weight matters less; move it out of the page instead.

    Checks: heavy-assets

  6. 6

    Address Orphan Pages

    Why: 177 orphan pages lack internal links, leading to poor discoverability.

    How: Add relevant internal links to these pages from other websites within your domain.

    Checks: orphan-pages

Security review

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

The site has several critical security issues, including missing headers for transport security and content restrictions. This may expose visitors to security risks from man-in-the-middle attacks and unauthorized script execution. Immediate attention is required to implement recommended security headers and library updates.

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

    Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium

    Why it matters: Without HSTS, visitors can be intercepted on first requests if they type the address without HTTPS.

    Fix: Add the header 'Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains'.

    Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security

  2. 2

    Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium

    Why it matters: Lack of a CSP means no restrictions on script or resource loading, increasing XSS risks.

    Fix: Add the header 'Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';'.

    Evidence: Content Security Policy

  3. 3

    Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium

    Why it matters: Absence of this header allows clickjacking attacks by embedding your site in an iframe.

    Fix: Add the header 'X-Frame-Options: DENY'.

    Evidence: Clickjacking protection

  4. 4

    Outdated jQuery Library with VulnerabilitiesMedium

    Why it matters: Using jQuery 2.9.30 exposes you to multiple known vulnerabilities.

    Fix: Upgrade jQuery to at least version 3.5.0.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  5. 5

    Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow

    Why it matters: Without this header, browsers may incorrectly interpret file types, posing security risks.

    Fix: Add the header 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff'.

    Evidence: MIME sniffing protection

  6. 6

    Missing Referrer Policy HeaderLow

    Why it matters: No referrer policy can lead to sharing sensitive URL information with other sites.

    Fix: Add the header 'Referrer-Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade'.

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  7. 7

    Server Version DisclosureLow

    Why it matters: Exposing server details can assist attackers in planning exploits.

    Fix: Disable or conceal server details in the headers.

    Evidence: Software version disclosure

  8. 8

    Missing Permissions Policy HeaderInfo

    Why it matters: Lack of this header means potential access to unnecessary browser features.

    Fix: Add the header 'Permissions-Policy: pop-ups=(), geolocation=()'.

    Evidence: Permissions policy
