Security and technical hygiene

HTTPS and Lighthouse best-practices checks.

What it tells you

Part of site health. These checks read whether pages are served securely and built with sound, current markup.

Checks

Character-encoding meta tag present

No character-encoding meta tag. Most servers declare the encoding in the HTTP header, which is what actually takes effect.

Read the documentation ›

Consistent character encoding

The page declares two different character encodings in its meta tags. The browser picks one, so the other's text can render as mojibake.

Read the documentation ›

DOCTYPE present

No DOCTYPE declaration, which puts browsers into quirks mode. Rendering may differ from what the page intends, though parsing still works.

Read the documentation ›

HTTPS enabled

Served over plain HTTP. Browsers mark it insecure and it is ranked below the HTTPS equivalent.

Read the documentation ›

A secure page loads or links insecure HTTP resources. Browsers block this content, so parts of the page genuinely fail to load.

Read the documentation ›

No deprecated HTML tags

The page uses HTML tags that are no longer part of the standard. Browsers still render them, so this is maintenance debt.

Read the documentation ›
