Page titles8.0
100% of pages have defined titles
40% of page titles are weak
- All pages were found to specify page titles, but 2.0% pages have relatively weak titles which could be improved. Page titles appear in search results and at the top of the browser's window when visiting the site. Appropriate page titles are particularly important for search engine optimisation.
- Make sure that all pages have a descriptive title. Do not include the address of the page in the title, try not to use excessive punctuation and avoid common words like 'page'.
Page titles
| Page title | Notes |
| Rotten Tomatoes: Movies | TV Shows | Movie Trailers | Reviews | Rotten Tomatoes | This title appears to be overly complex. Consider a more meaningful title |
| Rotten Tomatoes: Reset Client | Rotten Tomatoes | OK |
| Rotten Tomatoes: Terms and Policies | Rotten Tomatoes | OK |
| Rotten Tomatoes: Help Desk | Rotten Tomatoes | OK |
| Rotten Tomatoes: Movies | TV Shows | Movie Trailers | Reviews | Rotten Tomatoes | This title appears to be overly complex. Consider a more meaningful title |
Headings8.0
- All pages were found to use defined headings. This is excellent as it allows visitors and search engines to summarise the content of webpages quickly. Correctly defined headings aid accessibility and are particularly important for search engine optimisation.
- Some pages did not define headings correctly. The H1 tag should be used for the most top-level heading, with H2 being used for sub-headings and H3 for further sub-headings and so-on. Not conforming to this convention may confuse visitors.
- Ensure that headings are defined in a semantically correct way, i.e. always start with a H1 tag. This is used to summarise the page content. Further tags (H2, H3, H4 etc) are meant to summarise and partition sections within the content.
Page headings detail
URL format8.8
1 URLs are less than ideal
- One URL is particularly hard to type or remember.
- Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs. URLs using unusual characters (such as semi-colons or underscores), long numerals or complex phrasing are very difficult for real people to use or exchange. They also tend to be less favoured by search engines. Wherever possible ensure web addresses are 'human readable' - i.e. they should be easy to read, remember and type. In particular, avoid the use of obscure characters (including the underscore, which is not widely understood by non-technical users, or particularly memorable) and long numerals, e.g. example.com/23857984325.
