Fix these first
- Title tagcritical
“News, ideas and inspiration for professional charity fundraisers - UK Fundraising”
Fix: Write a unique title of roughly 50–60 characters with the main search phrase first.
On WordPress: Edit the page and scroll to the Yoast SEO or Rank Math box (install one of these free plugins if you have neither), then fill in the SEO title.
- H1 headingcritical
No H1 heading.
Fix: Use one H1 that states the page topic with its main keyword.
On WordPress: Most themes show the page title as the H1. In the editor, make sure no other block uses Heading 1 – use Heading 2 for sections.
- Render-blocking resourceshigh
0 blocking script(s) and 17 stylesheet(s) in <head>.
Fix: Add defer to scripts, inline critical CSS and load the rest asynchronously.
- Heading structuremedium
23 headings for 253 words – a lot for the amount of text.
Fix: Use H2s for main sections and H3s inside them, without skipping levels.
- Question-led contentmedium
No headings phrased as questions.
Fix: Add headings that match real questions ("How much does…?") followed by a direct one- or two-sentence answer – an easy format for search and AI answers to quote.
- Scripts & third partiesmedium
51 script tag(s); files loaded from 3 other domain(s): fonts.googleapis.com, wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud, i.ytimg.com.
Fix: Remove unused tracking and widget scripts; every third party adds connection time.
- Imagesmedium
24 image(s).
Fix: Give every image width and height, lazy-load images below the fold (but not the main image) and serve WebP/AVIF.
On WordPress: Install a free image optimiser plugin (such as EWWW Image Optimizer or Smush) to shrink images and serve WebP.
- HSTSmedium
No Strict-Transport-Security header.
Fix: Add Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains.
