84/ 100Good

On November 8, 2026 the Site Spider crawled 1932 pages and 1336 assets of www.immigration-nation.ca, starting from https://www.immigration-nation.ca/. It scored 84 out of 100, a good result. 10 of 33 checks found something to fix, led by heavy assets (228), title tags (732), meta descriptions (673); 10 checks passed. Most of the points went to heavy assets (−6), title tags (−3.8), meta descriptions (−2.8). 13 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.

  4. 4

    Optimize Heavy Assets

    Why: 228 assets over 500 KB can slow down page load times, affecting user experience.

Security review

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

The site exposes high-risk vulnerabilities due to insufficient HTTPS enforcement and inadequate security headers. It's critical to enforce HTTPS, implement a Referrer-Policy, and address outdated libraries. Immediate remediation is necessary to protect user data and enhance security.

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

    Insecure HTTP ResponsesHigh

    Why it matters: 1335 pages can be accessed over plain HTTP, exposing content to interception.

    Fix: Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS using a 301 redirect.

    Evidence: HTTPS

  2. 2

    Missing SameSite Cookie FlagMedium

    Why it matters: Cookies exposed without the SameSite flag may allow cross-site request forgery.

    Fix: Update the cookie setting to include SameSite attribute: SameSite=Lax for the 'wordpress_test_cookie'.

    Evidence: Cookie flags

  3. 3

    Outdated Vulnerable JavaScript LibraryMedium

    Why it matters: jQuery 1.7.2 includes known vulnerabilities that could be exploited.

    Fix: Upgrade jQuery to at least version 3.5.0 to fix vulnerabilities.

    Evidence: Vulnerable JavaScript libraries

  4. 4

    Missing Referrer-PolicyLow

    Why it matters: No Referrer-Policy exposes full addresses when linking away from the site.

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

    Evidence: Referrer policy

  5. 5

    Software Version DisclosureLow

    Why it matters: Revealing server version details allows attackers to identify vulnerabilities.

    Fix: Remove the 'X-Powered-By' and server version headers from the responses.

    Evidence: Software version disclosure

  6. 6

    Missing Permissions-PolicyInfo

    Why it matters: Lack of this header leaves browser features available that may not be needed.

    Fix: Implement a Permissions-Policy header to restrict unused features like camera and geolocation: Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=()

    Evidence: Permissions policy
