Yes404 page

YesCompression

  • 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.
  • 3 of the pages of this website return page content with or without a trailing slash on their URLs, but they use a canonical tag to denote the correct version. This is ideal, as search engines will know which version to index.
  • Adding or removing a trailing slash to one of the URLs of this site returns an error page (404). This is OK as no content is being duplicated, but visitors might try browsing to the pages of this website with or without a trailing slash. Ideally, the alternate URL should redirect to the correct page.
  • This website follows the best practice of using a permanent (HTTP 301) redirect from http://carlsons.ca to http://www.carlsons.ca. This is ideal.

Internal links9.9
