What we’ll check
The four things Google and your visitors actually judge you on.
Performance
Load speed and Core Web Vitals on mobile — the ranking signal Google uses and the reason visitors bounce.
Accessibility
How usable your site is for everyone — screen readers, keyboard navigation, colour contrast (WCAG).
Technical SEO
Whether search engines can find, crawl and understand your pages — titles, metadata, structure.
Best practices
Modern-web quality checks — up-to-date libraries, correct image sizing, and no broken basics.
Health check questions
Is the health check really free?
Yes — the free check runs Google Lighthouse and shows your Performance, Accessibility, SEO and Best-Practices scores plus Core Web Vitals in seconds, with no signup. A full PDF report with every finding, a deeper technical-SEO and AI-readiness section, and a prioritised action plan is an optional one-off (£49).
What are Core Web Vitals?
Google's measures of real-world experience: how quickly the main content loads, how fast the page responds to input, and how much it visually shifts while loading. They're a direct Google ranking signal — and they're exactly what your visitors feel.
What's in the paid report that the free check doesn't show?
Every Lighthouse finding explained in plain English with the exact fix, plus a technical-SEO and AI-readiness section the free check doesn't run — page title and meta, canonical, sitemap and robots.txt, structured data, social-share tags, and whether search engines and AI assistants can find and describe you. Emailed within minutes, no account needed.
How is this different from the security scan?
The security scan checks whether your site is safe — HTTPS, SSL/TLS, security headers, and email spoofing protection. The health check is about whether it works hard for you — speed, accessibility, and how findable it is. They're complementary, and you can run both free.
Do I need to give you access to my site?
No. The check only looks at what's publicly visible for your domain — the same page a browser or Google sees. Nothing is installed and no login is needed.
