Images
We found 24 images on this web page.
13 image alt attributes were missing. Please add alt text to all images to help search engines better understand the content of your images.
Text/HTML Ratio
Ratio : 10%
This page's ratio of text to HTML code is below 20 percent, this means that your website probably needs more text content in order to do well in search engines. Note: This may also result from a false reading due to your server blocking external scripts from accessing the home page.
Iframe
Awesome, there are no Iframes found on this page.
SEO Links
URL Rewrite
Bad. We found links with query strings (?). Avoid using query strings to improve search engine indexing. Use URL rewriting (for example, rewrite rules in an .htaccess file) to replace dynamic URLs with clean ones. Our free URL rewriting tool generates the rules.
Underscores in the URLs
We have detected underscores in your URLs. It would be better to use hyphens to optimize your SEO.
In-page links
We found a total of 210 links including 18 link(s) to files

Usability
Url
Domain : weather.gov
Length : 11
Favicon
Very bad. We have not found a shortcut icon. Favicons help attract regular visitors to your website and build trust.
Language
You have not specified the language. Add a lang attribute to the <html> tag (for example lang='en') to declare the intended language of your website. Our free meta tag generator can add it.
Document
Doctype
XHTML 1.0 Transitional
Encoding
The page does not declare a charset. Add <meta charset='utf-8'> at the top of the page's <head> to declare the document's charset (our free meta tag generator includes it).
Email Privacy
Great no email address was found in plain text!
Deprecated HTML
Great! We haven't found deprecated HTML tags in your HTML.

|

|
Not good, your website has too many CSS files (more than 4). |
|
This website has an excessive amount of Javascript files (more than 6). |
|

XML Sitemap
Missing
Your website does not have an XML sitemap - this can be a problem for search engines.
An XML sitemap informs search engines about URLs available for crawling on your site. It includes information about your site's latest updates, frequency of changes and relative importance of each URL. This allows search engines to crawl the site more efficiently.
Robots.txt
http://weather.gov/robots.txt
Great, your website has a robots.txt file.
Analytics
Great, your website uses an analytics script.

AI Search Readiness
These checks were added after this site was analyzed, so they aren't part of its score yet. They will be from the next update.
AI Crawlers
This site has no robots.txt file, so AI crawlers are allowed by default.

CCBot | Common Crawl | AI training |
Blocking AI training crawlers is a common choice and doesn't affect the score. Only the AI search crawlers count.
Structured Data
No schema.org structured data found. Adding it (for example Organization, WebSite or Product in JSON-LD) helps search engines and AI tools understand the page and can enable rich results.
Canonical Tag
No canonical tag found. Add <link rel="canonical"> so search engines know which URL is the main version and don't split ranking between duplicates.
llms.txt
No llms.txt file. It's an emerging convention: a short Markdown summary of the site for AI tools. Optional, so it doesn't affect the score.
Security
HTTPS
The site loads over HTTPS, so connections are encrypted. Browsers and search engines expect this.
HSTS
The site sends a Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers always use HTTPS for it.
Security Headers
3 of 5 common security headers found. At least 2 are needed to pass.
