Performance
Checks response time, compression, cache headers, and homepage payload size so obvious speed constraints are easier to spot.
Free website audit
Run a deterministic first-pass audit for performance, security, SEO basics, infrastructure, and WordPress signals. The goal is not to overwhelm you with data. The goal is to make the next right step clearer.
What the audit checks
The audit looks at signals a visitor, search engine, browser, CDN, or consultant can observe from the outside. It is not a replacement for a full technical review, but it is a useful way to identify likely priorities.
Checks response time, compression, cache headers, and homepage payload size so obvious speed constraints are easier to spot.
Reviews HTTPS and common security headers including HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, Referrer Policy, and content-type protection.
Looks for title, meta description, canonical URL, H1 structure, robots.txt, and sitemap.xml.
Identifies visible CDN, Cloudflare, redirect, cache, server, and HTTP/3 signals from public responses.
Detects common WordPress fingerprints and checks whether XML-RPC appears publicly reachable.
Applies a deterministic scoring matrix and turns findings into practical recommendations tied to real next steps.
How it works
Every grade comes from a rule, every rule has evidence, and every recommendation is tied to something the audit actually found.
Step
The audit only checks public website responses. It does not log into the site, crawl private areas, or use paid third-party APIs.
Step
Each result shows the evidence found, why it matters, and the practical recommendation behind the score.
Step
Use the report link in email, Slack, or Teams, then bring in Best Website when you want help fixing the right issues first.
After the report
The free audit is a starting point. Best Website can help with hosting, performance optimization, WordPress support, technical SEO, Cloudflare setup, and deeper technical reviews.
