Our suggested order: biggest obstacles first, quickest first among equals. The effect of each fix is not measured. 1 takes minutes.
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
These addresses are linked from your own pages but return an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines waste their visit.
What to do: Fix the link, restore the page, or redirect the old address to the closest live page.
That 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.
A made-up address did not return a 404. Search engines can end up indexing endless empty pages.
What to do: Make the site answer unknown addresses with a 404 status and a helpful “page not found” page.
How to fix this: How to find and fix broken links on your websiteWithout a width and height, the page shifts as each image arrives. That is the layout shift Core Web Vitals penalise.
What to do: Add width and height attributes to every image tag.
How to fix this: Image SEO: alt text, file size and layout shiftSearch engines and screen readers use a link's words to understand the page it leads to. “Learn more” tells them nothing.
What to do: Reword each link to name its destination, for example “See our pricing” instead of “Learn more”.
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.
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.
What to do: Use heading levels in order: one H1, then H2 for sections, H3 inside those. Style size with CSS, not by choosing a different level.
An optional plain-text summary of the site for AI assistants. It is cheap to add, but there is no evidence yet that it changes how often a site is cited.
What to do: Optionally add /llms.txt with a short description of the site and links to its most important pages.
Optional. Save as llms.txt at the top level of the site. Edit the first lines to describe what you do.

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.
Google Ads cannot learn which clicks turn into customers without it. A Tag Manager container is present, so it may be loaded from there, which this check cannot see.
What to do: Create a conversion action in Google Ads and add the tag, or import conversions from Analytics.
