URL format5.2
4 URLs are less than ideal
- 4 URLs are 'dirty'. 'Dirty' URLs include one or more parameters after a question mark (e.g. www.example.com/?pagename=news), instead of a clean URL (e.g. www.example.com/news). Dirty URLs should generally be avoided wherever possible - they are almost impossible for human beings to remember, may expose the technology of the website to hackers and can confuse search engines among other problems. Their use is sometimes necessary for specific applications, and acceptable in small amounts.
- Remove or reduce the number of query parameters in URLs. Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs.
Server behaviour7.6
404 page
Compression
- This website handles missing pages correctly by sending a 404 HTTP status code.
- This website was served with GZIP encoding. This is very good because it reduces the loading time of a web page.
- There was no website found on http://www.sevenshades.ca. This is bad, as visitors might presume they can visit this website by visiting that address.
- Put a permanent (HTTP 301) redirect to http://sevenshades.ca on http://www.sevenshades.ca.
Mobile8.6
- All of this website appears to be optimised for viewing on a mobile phone (using CSS media queries) but it is not optimised for tablet viewing. It is important to make sure your content is optimised for a wide range of devices as a growing percentage of web browsing is done on phones and tablets.
- Check how the website looks using a tablet and consider adding tablet-only styling using media queries. Some websites employ other techniques for mobile and tablet visitors which we cannot currently detect.
