Top priorities for website improvement

- Remove or reduce the number of query parameters in URLs. Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs. (read more)

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.
Internal links7.9
- 2 links use text that is too long. Links should describe what they link to briefly. Linking a long block of text usually indicates an attempt to trick search engines into ranking those keywords highly (a strategy which does not work). Long linked blocks of text are also harder for people to scan.
- Consider shortening long anchor text.
Overly long link text

- Consider shortening long anchor text.
- 60 links have no text describing their destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.
- Add meaningful anchor text that describes the link's destination. If the link contains an image, ensure you have provided alt text.
Empty link text
- Add meaningful anchor text that describes the link's destination. If the link contains an image, ensure you have provided alt text.

- Having mobile optimised HTML is good, but the best way of adapting a website for different screen sizes is to use CSS media queries.
