Server behaviour4.1
404 page
Compression
- This website handles missing pages correctly by sending a 404 HTTP status code.
- This website was not served using GZIP encoding. GZIP compression is widely supported and reduces the load time of a web page.
- Enable GZIP compression on your web server or in your application.
- This website returns page content with or without a trailing slash on the URLs, but each page has a canonical tag to denote the correct version. This is usually ideal, as search engines will know which version to index, but there are links on this website which point to the non canonical version.
- Make sure all internal links to this page go to the canonical version.
Incorrectly linked pages
- Make sure all internal links to this page go to the canonical version.
- There is duplicate content on http://www.fcterc.gov.ng and http://fcterc.gov.ng. This is bad, as technically they are classed as two different websites. Search engines may lower a website's rank if they find the same content on two different URLs.
- Choose one domain that you would like to use and then set a permanent (HTTP 301) redirect to forward users who visit the other.
URL format7.6
2 URLs are less than ideal
- 2 URLs are particularly hard to type or remember.
- Consider URL rewriting as an effective and transparent means of creating appropriate URLs. URLs using unusual characters (such as semi-colons or underscores), long numerals or complex phrasing are very difficult for real people to use or exchange. They also tend to be less favoured by search engines. Wherever possible ensure web addresses are 'human readable' - i.e. they should be easy to read, remember and type. In particular, avoid the use of obscure characters (including the underscore, which is not widely understood by non-technical users, or particularly memorable) and long numerals, e.g. example.com/23857984325.
Images7.9
79% of images have a clearly defined size
39 images are being resized by the browser
- Some images (21.0%) don't have defined sizes using width and height attributes in the HTML. These attributes are optional, but strongly recommended as they help the browser arrange the page more quickly.
- Add width and height attributes to all image tags. The width and height you specify should be the same as the source image. If you want to resize an image in the browser, use CSS.
Non Explicitly Sized Images
- Add width and height attributes to all image tags. The width and height you specify should be the same as the source image. If you want to resize an image in the browser, use CSS.
- 39 images are being stretched in the browser.
- The width and height you specify in an image tag should be the same as the source image. If you want to resize an image in the browser, use the CSS width and height properties.
Stretched Images
- The width and height you specify in an image tag should be the same as the source image. If you want to resize an image in the browser, use the CSS width and height properties.
- 1 image on this website could not be downloaded. Broken images may cause the website to display incorrectly for visitors.
- Check any images which could not be downloaded and fix them if necessary.
