Step 1 · Organic
Everything here was observed on the site. Fixing it removes a known obstacle; no one can promise a specific ranking in return.
Observed · AdnaveBot's reading of 12 pages on 2026-11-13 · each finding is what we saw on those pages; “what to do”, the score and the order are our judgment
When someone shares the page, the preview will look bare or use the wrong image.
What to do: Add Open Graph tags: og:title, og:description and an og:image of 1200 × 630 pixels.
Paste inside the <head> of the page. Replace the image address with a picture of 1200 by 630 pixels.

When pages share a title, search engines cannot tell which one to show, and searchers cannot tell them apart.
What to do: Rewrite each title so it describes that page specifically.
These scripts must download and run before anything is shown.
What to do: Add defer or async to scripts in the page head, or move them to the end.
How to fix this: Core Web Vitals: how to make a slow website fastA single H1 tells search engines what each page is about.
What to do: Give each page exactly one H1 that states its topic.
Images without alt text are invisible to search engines and to screen-reader users.
What to do: Add a short alt description to each meaningful image. Use an empty alt for purely decorative ones.
How to fix this: Image SEO: alt text, file size and layout shiftThat is heavy for the page code alone, before any images load.
What to do: Remove unused code and inline data, and load non-essential parts later.
How to fix this: Core Web Vitals: how to make a slow website fastA description copied across pages tells searchers nothing about the one in front of them, and search engines usually replace it.
What to do: Write a description for each page that says what that page offers.
The site links to an old address that then redirects. Each one adds a wasted step for visitors and crawlers.
What to do: Update the links to point at the final address.
A field with no label is announced to screen-reader users as just “edit text”, and placeholder text disappears as soon as someone types. Clear labels also raise form completion.
What to do: Give each field a <label for="its-id">, or an aria-label if the design has no room for visible text.

“A website makes it real”
Subheadings help readers and search engines scan the page.
The page gives search engines real content to work with.
No links on the page use wording like “click here”.
Without the doctype line, browsers fall back to an old rendering mode and layouts can break.
Without it, accented letters and symbols can show as garbled text, in the browser and in search results.
Search engines treat this kind of redirect as a weak signal and visitors see a flash of the old page. It also breaks the back button.
Headings are the page's outline. When levels are skipped (a heading 2 followed by a heading 4), screen readers and search engines get a broken outline.
An icon-only link or button with no text is invisible to screen readers and tells search engines nothing about where it leads.
hreflang tags tell search engines which language version to show each searcher. A set that leaves out the page itself, or the fallback, is often ignored as a whole.
Visitors and search engines get a secure connection.
Nothing on the page blocks it from being indexed.
The page declares a mobile viewport.

Step 2 · Ads
Ads only pay off when the site can measure what they bring in. We look for tracking tags in the page code; tags that load later, through a consent banner or tag manager, will not show up here.
Without analytics you cannot see where visitors come from or what they do.
