Fix these first

Your site is built with Squarespace. The steps below say where each setting is, and our Squarespace SEO guide walks through the rest.

  1. H1 headingcritical

    10 H1 headings – one clear H1 is best practice.

    Fix: Use one H1 that states the page topic with its main keyword.

    On Squarespace: Select the main heading text and choose Heading 1 from the text style menu; use Heading 2 for the rest.

  2. Mobile viewportcritical

    viewport: initial-scale=1

    Fix: Use <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> and allow zoom.

    Fix: Add defer to scripts, inline critical CSS and load the rest asynchronously.

    Fix: Show a 'last updated' date and add dateModified to your structured data.

    See the details

  5. Required propertiesmedium

    Fix: Remove unused tracking and widget scripts; every third party adds connection time.

    See the details

  8. Imagesmedium

    37 image(s).

    Fix: Give every image width and height, lazy-load images below the fold (but not the main image) and serve WebP/AVIF.

  • !

    Meta descriptionhigh

  • !

    Question-led contentmedium

    2 heading(s) phrased as questions, e.g. “Do you have an interesting story,”.

    Identified as: LocalBusiness.
