Example Business Ltd is a made-up business: this card shows how a result reads.
How it works

Measure. Improve. Excel.

01

We look

Your home page and the pages it links to, on a computer and a phone. Server speed is measured three times; every page is read the way a visitor sees it.

02

We score

Six areas, each with fixed rules and published weights. A check we can’t measure is listed and left out, never counted as a pass.

03

You improve

A report with the three fixes that matter most and a roadmap. After the work we check again with the same rules and show the before and after.

Questions

Good to know

Is it a security audit?

No. Security basics are checked from outside only; we never try to log in or break in.

Do you need my passwords?

No. We read only what any visitor can see, one page at a time.

Can I pay for a better grade?

You pay for the assessment, never for the grade. The same rules apply to every website, and a certificate is only issued at grade B or better, or for a real improvement.
