Recommendations for this website

  • There are a number of pages that do not use the description meta tag. Whilst not as important as they once were for Search Engine Optimization the description Meta tag is commonly by search engines to provide a preview snippet about what the page is about. We recommend that you do utilise the description meta tag for each page within your website.
  • It appears that the server hosting the website is not utilizing GZIP compression when serving pages. Enabling compression on your server will save both time and bandwidth - we recommend enabling compression on your server.
  • There are a number of pages where images are being displayed without the associated width and height attributes. Where an image height and width are not specified the browser is unaware of the image size and cannot reserve the appropriate space for it. The end result is as the page loads the actual layout will change whilst the images load. We recommend that you specify the height and width attributes for each image.
  • There are a number of pages that do not appear to support print styling. This means that when a user prints a page there is a high chance that the page will print incorrectly and be un-readable. We recommend that your website implements a print stylesheet to format the web page so when printed the page is automatically printed in a user-friendly format.
  • There are a number of pages that do not appear have the optimum number of words on the page. Whilst there is no real way of telling what the best number of words to have on a page general consensus is that anything less then 250 words may be considered 'Thin Content'. We recommend a keyword count between 250 and 2500 words per page.
  • There are a number of pages that do not use the keywords meta tag. Whilst not as important as they once for Search Engine Optimization the keywords Meta tag has been referenced as still being relevant by Google (Where a website is a news based website) and Yahoo. We recommend that you do utilise the keywords meta tag for each page within your website.
  • There are a number of pages that have possible spelling mistakes on them. Spelling mistakes within a website make it look unprofessional and less likely to appear as an authority site. Our recommendation is to fix any spelling mistakes that you may have on your website as soon as possible.
