On September 12, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 502 pages and 999 assets of www.edmontonscene.com, starting from https://www.edmontonscene.com/. It scored 68 out of 100, a result that needs work. 13 of 27 checks found something to fix, led by meta descriptions (489), sitemap coverage (489), heavy assets (56); 6 checks passed. Most of the points went to meta descriptions (−8), heavy assets (−6), sitemap coverage (−6). 8 checks found something the score does not count, listed as noted. 10 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.

Security review
Written by gpt-4o-mini from 16 checks over the crawlThe site www.edmontonscene.com lacks several important security headers that protect against various attacks. Implementing these measures will enhance the security of the site and safeguard user data.
- 0 high
- 3 medium
- 2 low
- 0 info
- 1
Missing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)Medium
Why it matters: Without HSTS, users can be intercepted on their initial request if they do not use HTTPS.
Fix: Add the header: 'Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload'.
Evidence: HTTP Strict Transport Security
- 2
Missing Content Security Policy (CSP)Medium
Why it matters: Absence of a CSP allows any script, style, or frame to load, increasing risk of XSS attacks.
Fix: Add the header: 'Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self';'.
Evidence: Content Security Policy
- 3
Missing X-Frame-Options HeaderMedium
Why it matters: Without this, the site can be embedded in frames, risking clickjacking attacks.
Fix: Add the header: 'X-Frame-Options: DENY' or 'SAMEORIGIN'.
Evidence: Clickjacking protection
- 4
Missing X-Content-Type-Options HeaderLow
Why it matters: Without this, browsers may execute responses as a different type than declared, risking attacks.
Fix: Add the header: 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff'.
Evidence: MIME sniffing protection
- 5
Mixed Content IssuesLow
Why it matters: Some resources load via HTTP on HTTPS pages, which can lead to man-in-the-middle attacks.
Fix: Update resource URLs to use HTTPS instead of HTTP.
Evidence: Mixed content
