Multiple Analytics Solutions
- 80.0% of this website is using some form of analytics software but 1 pages have no analytics. It is still possible to gather a great deal of information for the other 1 of pages from webserver logs, however complete visitor analysis requires client-side Javascript or an image not found here.
- Consider adding your analytics solution to the pages which aren't currently monitored.
- Note that this test can only detect recognised analytics solutions. If an analytics solution is new, obscure or used in a non-standard way (e.g. it has been customised) it may not be detected.

Headings8.3
- All pages were found to use defined headings. This is excellent as it allows visitors and search engines to summarise the content of webpages quickly. Correctly defined headings aid accessibility and are particularly important for search engine optimisation.
- Many headings (13.0%) were found to be empty, or incorrectly defined. Empty or invalid headings are of no value to search engines and make a website less accessible.
- Make sure all headings have content which is relevant to the page of content.
- Some pages did not define headings correctly. The H1 tag should be used for the most top-level heading, with H2 being used for sub-headings and H3 for further sub-headings and so-on. Not conforming to this convention may confuse visitors.
- Ensure that headings are defined in a semantically correct way, i.e. always start with a H1 tag. This is used to summarise the page content. Further tags (H2, H3, H4 etc) are meant to summarise and partition sections within the content.

Server behaviour8.7
404 page
Compression
- This website handles missing pages correctly by sending a 404 HTTP status code.
- This website was served with GZIP encoding. This is very good because it reduces the loading time of a web page.
- 3 of the pages of this website return page content with or without a trailing slash on their URLs. Search engines might see these as separate pages with duplicate content which they could penalise for.
- Use a 301 redirect or a canonical meta tag to force search engines to see the correct version.
- Adding or removing a trailing slash to one of the URLs of this site returns an error page (404). This is OK as no content is being duplicated, but visitors might try browsing to the pages of this website with or without a trailing slash. Ideally, the alternate URL should redirect to the correct page.
- Add a 301 redirect from the other version to the canonical URL.
Unhandled alternate URLs
Tested page Alternate libguides.hacc.edu/library/home libguides.hacc.edu/library/.../
- Add a 301 redirect from the other version to the canonical URL.
- This test is not applicable as this website appears to be on a subdomain.
Images9.5
14% of images have a clearly defined size
5 images are being resized by the browser
- Most images (86.0%) 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.
- One image is not in a web-friendly format.
- Make sure all images on this website are JPEG, PNG, SVG or GIF format.
- 5 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.
Internal links9.8
- 2 links have no text describing their destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.
- Add meaningful anchor text that describes the link's destination. If the link contains an image, ensure you have provided alt text.
