Results Summary

Grade: C+

Total errors: 4
Total warnings: 2
Total passes: 16

Note: This score is affected by a number of factors, including the URI's search engine performance. It is perfectly possible for a URI to fail this test and still perform well for a keyphrase. Interpreting the results is key!

For in-development or new websites you are likely to get better results by skipping search engine tests.

Content

An analysis of the (X)HTML of the URI
Element	Content	Word Count	Keyword Density	Note
Title	Search engine optimization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia	7	42.9% (3 occurrences)	The title should make sense out of context and ideally be less than 64 characters long
Meta Description		0	0	A meta description should be used to encourage users to click through. It has no effect on the actual ranking of a website
Main Heading	Search engine optimization	3	100% (3 occurrences)	The main heading (H1) should outline the content of the document
First Paragraph	Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a web site or a web page in search engines via the "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Other forms of search engine marketing (SEM) target paid listings. In general, the earlier (or higher on the page), and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.	100	17% (17 occurrences)	While not always significant, the first paragraph can indicate the overall theme of a document
Body		0	0	The body of a document should contain relevant words fairly frequently, within natural language and synonyms.

Yahoo	34,700,000	75,200,000	1	Yahoo provides little traffic, but is still worthy of consideration
Bing	36,500,000	0	4	Microsoft have struggled to make any impact on the search engine market. All link searches are still disabled by MS

Document


Test	Result	Note
URI	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimiz ation	This is the final URI tested
Response Time	0.97s	The time it took to download the document
Filesize	146.97KB	Smaller is best. Quick pages = happy visitors
Status Code	200	Returning a 200 (OK) status code is crucial
Document Type	XHTML 1.0 Transitional	For a document to be truly interoperable, the type of document must be declared
Content Type	text/html; charset=UTF-8	The wrong content type declaration can prevent search engines from indexing a page
HTML Validation	Invalid (2 errors)	Invalid (X)HTML markup can result in a document being misinterpreted by search engines (and browsers!)

Test	Result	Note
Parent Site	en.wikipedia.org	This (sub)domain 'owns' the content of the URI, and is the subject of the network tests below
IP	208.80.152.2	IP addresses can identify site owners and connect seemingly unrelated sites
Location		Where a site is located affects its perceived audience, especially if it uses a non-regional domain name (e.g. .com)
Reverse Dns	rr.pmtpa.wikimedia.org	Reverse DNS usually identifies the ISP or company behind a website
Spam Blocklists	Not listed	Sites that send email spam are more likely to be spam themselves
Server Software	Apache	Server software may be more (Apache) or less (IIS) configurable to improve performance

Troubleshooting


Test	Result	Note
404 headers	OK	Incorrect 404 headers can result in search engines repeatedly spidering invalid content
Canonical URIs	n/a	Canonical URIs that are not properly redirected can result in duplicate content that harms performance
Dynamic URIs	n/a	Some dynamic URIs can hamper search engines ability to spider a site
Session IDs	n/a	Session IDs can cause spiders to get stuck in spidering loop, and also result in harmful duplicate content
