Full report for a homepage
https://example.com typed into the box
(Illustrative) Seven areas side by side, a score based on the areas checked, and a to-do list with the most important change at the top.
Speed figures come from one request made from the server, so use them as a guide.
Area that could not be checked
https://example.com typed in, where one area cannot be reached
(Illustrative) That area marked as not checked and left out of the score, with the other six areas still shown.
A missing area does not hide the rest of the report, so the to-do list stays useful.
Informazioni su Website Health Report
A website health report brings the checks a site owner usually runs one at a time into a single page. Enter a domain and the report looks at whether the site loads and redirects sensibly from http to https and from www to the bare domain, how healthy the SSL certificate is, which security headers the server sends, the DNS records, the email records that protect your domain from forgery, when the domain registration runs out and what the home page tells search engines. It suits owners who want a quick view of the basics without opening several separate tools.
Each area gets a pass, warning or fail, and everything is combined into an overall score out of 100. The most useful part is the to-do list at the end, which puts the changes most worth making first and says what to do about each. If one check cannot be completed, for example because a registry is slow, that area is marked as not checked and the rest of the report still appears, so you never get an empty page. You can run it as often as you like, which makes it easy to confirm that a fix has worked.

What does the website health report check?
It checks six technical areas and the home page. These are reachability and redirects, the SSL certificate, security headers, DNS records, SPF, DKIM and DMARC email records, the domain registration and expiry date, and the basic page tags such as title and description. Each area is shown separately with the evidence found.
How is the score worked out?
Each area gets a score based on how many of its checks pass, with more important checks counting for more. The areas are then combined using fixed weights, so certificates and reachability count for more than page tags. Areas that could not be checked are left out, so a slow lookup does not drag the score down.
Why does a section say it could not be checked?
Some checks depend on outside services, such as the registry that holds the domain record. If one is slow, busy or does not publish its data, the report says so instead of guessing. The other sections are still complete. Running the report again a little later often fills the gap.
Can I check a page other than the home page?
The report is about the site as a whole, so it always looks at the home page of the domain you enter, even if you paste a longer address. For a single page, use the accessibility checker or the meta tag checker, which are built for one address at a time.
Is a high score a guarantee that the site is safe?
No. The score reflects the settings this report can see from outside, such as headers, certificates and DNS. It cannot see your code, passwords, plugins or server patches. Treat a good score as a sign the basics are in place, and keep updating and testing the site as usual.
Why do some security headers show as missing on big sites?
Large sites sometimes set headers only on certain pages, or through a different layer than the home page. The report reads the headers the home page returns when we request it, which is what a first-time visitor receives. If your setup differs by page, check the pages that matter to you as well.
