Server behaviour7.0
404 page
Compression
- This website handles missing pages correctly by sending a 404 HTTP status code.
- This website returns GZIP encoded content even if the client does not support compression. GZIP compression is good because it is widely supported and reduces the load time of a web page. However, some devices and web crawlers might not support GZIP compression so your website should obey the accept-encoding HTTP header.
- Ensure GZIP compressed content is only returned when the client sends the accept-encoding: gzip header.
- 2 of the pages of this website follow the best practice of using a permanent (HTTP 301) redirect between URLs with/without trailing slashes. These pages are ideal.
- This website follows the best practice of using a permanent (HTTP 301) redirect from http://reeapartments.com to http://www.reeapartments.com. This is ideal.
URL format7.6
2 URLs are less than ideal
- 2 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.
