What to fix

Most important first.

Phone number findable

AI Readiness Quick

We found no phone number on your homepage - an AI assistant asked for your number would come up empty.

Why it matters: People and AI assistants look for a number to call; if it is not on the page, the call goes to someone else.

How to fix it: Put your phone number on the homepage as text, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

Always-secure instruction (HSTS)

Domain & Security Technical

Your site does not tell browsers to always use the secure connection.

Why it matters: Without this instruction, a browser may still try the insecure address first, which leaves room for the connection to be tampered with.

How to fix it: Ask your developer or host to add the Strict-Transport-Security header once HTTPS works on every page.

Security headers

Domain & Security Technical

Your site sends 2 of the 5 security headers we look for; missing: hsts, csp, referrer_policy.

Why it matters: These headers tell browsers how to protect visitors - for example, stopping your pages being framed inside someone else's site.

How to fix it: Ask your developer or host to add the missing headers in the server or hosting settings.

Email protection policy (DMARC)

Domain & Security Moderate

Your domain does not publish a DMARC record, which lets anyone send email that claims to come from your domain.

Why it matters: A DMARC policy tells receiving mail servers what to do with mail that fails your checks, which protects your customers and your inbox placement.

How to fix it: Add a DMARC record in your DNS, starting with a monitoring policy, then tighten it once your legitimate mail passes.

AI guide file (llms.txt)

AI Readiness Quick

Your site does not publish an llms.txt file.

Why it matters: An llms.txt file is a short, plain summary of your business and key pages that AI assistants can read quickly and quote accurately.

How to fix it: Create a text file at /llms.txt with a one-paragraph description of your business and links to your most important pages.

Sitemap available

AI Readiness Quick

We found no sitemap for your site.

Why it matters: A sitemap lists every page you want found, so search engines and AI assistants do not miss the ones buried deep in your site.

How to fix it: Most website builders create a sitemap automatically; turn it on and list it in your robots.txt.

Structured data

AI Readiness Moderate

Your homepage carries no structured data.

Why it matters: Structured data describes your business in a form machines read directly, which is how search engines and AI assistants pick up your hours, address and services.

How to fix it: Add schema.org markup to your homepage; many website builders and SEO plugins do this for you.

Business described as a business

AI Readiness Moderate

Your structured data does not describe you as a business or organisation.

Why it matters: Marking up your business itself - name, address, phone, hours - is what lets AI assistants answer questions about you with confidence.

How to fix it: Add LocalBusiness (or Organization) markup with your name, address, phone number and opening hours.

Homepage description

AI Readiness Quick

Your homepage has no meta description.

Why it matters: Without one, search engines and AI assistants guess at a summary from whatever text they find first.

How to fix it: Write a one- or two-sentence description of your business and add it as the page's meta description.

One main heading

AI Readiness Quick

Your homepage has no main heading, or more than one.

Why it matters: One clear main heading tells readers and machines what the page is about at a glance.

How to fix it: Make sure exactly one heading on the page is marked as the main (H1) heading.

Address findable

AI Readiness Quick

We found no street address on your homepage.

Why it matters: A visible address tells customers and AI assistants where you are, and matches you to your Google listing.

How to fix it: Add your street address to the homepage, in the same form as on your Google listing.

Contact form findable

AI Readiness Quick

We found no contact form on your homepage.

Why it matters: A form lets a customer reach you at any hour without picking up the phone.

How to fix it: Add a simple contact form, or a clear link to one, on your homepage.

Language declared

AI Readiness Technical

Your homepage does not declare its language.

Why it matters: Declaring the language helps screen readers pronounce your content and helps search engines show it to the right people.

How to fix it: Add a lang attribute to the page's html tag, for example en-NZ.

Link preview when shared

AI Readiness Quick

Your homepage is missing the tags that make a full preview when it is shared.

Why it matters: When someone shares your link, these tags decide the picture, title and description people see in the post.

How to fix it: Add Open Graph tags (title, description and image); most website builders have a social sharing setting for this.
