What we check

Six plain-English areas, scored and prioritised for you.

Security & Exposure

Common misconfigurations anyone on the internet can see.

  • Does the site use HTTPS and redirect insecure visits?
  • Are protective security headers in place?
  • Is your server software version visible?

Privacy & Browser Controls

Public browser privacy settings returned by your website.

  • Does the site limit page-address sharing?
  • Are device permissions restricted?
  • Are browser privacy headers in place?

SEO & Discoverability

The public signals search engines use to understand your homepage.

  • Do pages have titles and descriptions?
  • Is there a sitemap and robots file?
  • Is structured data being used and readable?

Performance & Quality

Lightweight page signals we can measure without loading assets.

  • Does the homepage avoid unnecessary redirect chains?
  • Is the HTML document unusually heavy?
  • Is a mobile viewport declared?

Trust & Sharing

The public details people see when your link is shared.

  • Does the site provide a complete social preview?
  • Are link title, description and image present?
  • Does the page look complete when shared?

Email & Domain Security

Public email and domain signals that help protect your business identity.

  • Is the domain protected by SPF and DMARC?
  • Are email transport protections such as MTA-STS and TLS reporting published?
  • Is the domain, certificate and public security contact information in good order?

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about our free online site checker.

What is a website health check?

A website health check is a quick, non-invasive review of the public parts of your site - the same pages a visitor or search engine can see. Our free website health checker looks at security headers, privacy controls, SEO basics, quality signals, and trust indicators, then turns the results into a simple score with a prioritised list of things to fix.

Is this website checker really free?

Yes. The free website checker gives you an overall score, your top priorities, and the things your site is already doing well - no login and no email required. We're a website checker UK businesses can use as often as they like; an optional one-off Domain Unlock adds a developer-ready fix pack if you want the full detail.

What does the site health checker actually look at?

The site health checker reviews six areas: security (HTTPS, certificates, security headers), privacy (cookies and browser protections), SEO (titles, descriptions, discovery files like robots.txt and sitemaps), quality signals, trust indicators, and email and domain security (SPF, DMARC, and related records). Each website page checker run takes about 30-45 seconds.

Do I need a privacy policy for my website?

Almost certainly, yes. If your site uses cookies, analytics, contact forms, or any third-party services, UK GDPR expects you to tell visitors what data you collect and why. A site health check will flag missing or hard-to-find privacy pages, and our report explains in plain English what to add and where.
