Website and SEO

The real-browser site check, the security checkup, the single-page SEO, accessibility and mobile scores, the whole-site crawl, the search-intent report, fix suggestions, and PDF reports.

Updated · 9 articles

The Website module on a domain holds two kinds of checks: what the site serves to a browser (headers, cookies, exposed paths, technology, blocklists) and what the page says about itself (titles, headings, links, images, accessibility, mobile readiness). The SEO & accessibility module extends the second kind across the whole site. On the web the same checks live on a domain's SEO & search tab (and SEO in the rail for every domain), with the security headers under Security, Overview.

Articles

  • The site check - your pages loaded in a real browser as a phone on 4G: speed, mobile, SEO, security, accessibility and errors, each finding with its cause and fix.
  • Security checkup - the nine headers, cookies, sensitive paths, technology, attack surface and blocklists, with a score out of 100.
  • Single-page SEO, accessibility and mobile scores - what the homepage scan measures, how the three scores are weighted, and manual URL scans.
  • Whole-site crawl - sitemap plus links, 25 pages on Starter; on Pro and Enterprise up to 300 pages in the web's site audit and 5,000 in the app's deep crawl, with per-page detail.
  • IndexNow - tell Bing, Yandex and other engines a page changed, and keep a record of what each one answered.
  • Search intent report - which pages compete for one search, and what to do about it.
  • Fix suggestions and the work queue - per-issue guidance, the AI fix plan, and the developer brief.
  • AI-written content and location pages - what Google says about AI-written pages and city pages, and how DomainGuard's checks and AI features follow it.
  • Reports, PDF and white-label branding - the technical report, emailing it, automatic scans, and Enterprise branding.

Common questions

Do the SEO checks include page speed? The homepage SEO scan does not: it reads the HTML and has no speed score. Speed is measured by the site check, which loads the page in a real browser as a phone on 4G and scores it with Lighthouse's metrics and weights. score_page_performance over MCP reports weight, requests and render-blocking resources as facts, not as a score.
