Безопасность
Сайт безопасен
Использование HTTPS и SSL-сертификат
?
HTTPS — обязательный стандарт. Google и Яндекс отдают предпочтение защищённым сайтам. Отсутствие SSL или просроченный сертификат ведут к предупреждениям в браузере и снижению позиций.
На сайте работает защищенный протокол ssl и сайт открывается по https.
Ssl-сертификат действителен до 25.10.2026 10:54:05.
Включён HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) — защита от подмены на http.
HTTP автоматически перенаправляется на HTTPS.
Поздравляем! Сайт не содержится в реестре РКН.
Кодировка
utf-8
Кодировка символов страницы
?
Стандарт — UTF-8. Неправильная кодировка вызывает нечитаемые символы и мешает поисковику корректно распознать текст страницы.
Указана кодировка на странице utf-8.
Язык
en-GB
Атрибут lang в HTML-теге
?
Атрибут lang (<html lang="ru">) сообщает поисковикам и браузерам, на каком языке написана страница. Помогает при ранжировании в региональном поиске.
Язык документа указан явно: en-GB.
Скорость загрузки
~1,01сек
Время отклика сервера (TTFB)
?
Time To First Byte — время до получения первого байта от сервера. Норма до 200 мс. Медленный отклик ухудшает пользовательский опыт и ранжирование: Яндекс и Google учитывают скорость страниц.
Скорость загрузки сайта 1,01сек превышает 1 секунду. Желательно улучшить работу сайта!
Объем документа
87Кб
Размер HTML-кода страницы
?
Слишком большой HTML замедляет парсинг браузером и сканирование поисковым роботом. Рекомендуется не более 200 Кб.
Объем html-документа 87Кб оптимален.
Структура html-документа корректна.
Ресурсы
Ресурсы: 17
Внешние ресурсы страницы (CSS, JS, изображения)
?
Количество и тип подключённых ресурсов влияют на скорость загрузки. Большое число запросов увеличивает время рендеринга страницы.
Кол-во файлов ресурсов 17 много для одной страницы. Приемлемо до 10. Проведите оптимизацию файлов ресурсов!

CMS
PrestaShop
Система управления сайтом (движок)
?
CMS — это движок, на котором работает сайт (WordPress, 1C-Bitrix, Tilda и др.). Знание CMS помогает понять возможности SEO-оптимизации и подобрать подходящие инструменты. «Не определена» — вероятно, самописный сайт или нестандартная сборка.
Сайт работает на CMS PrestaShop.
Веб-сервер
nginx
Программное обеспечение сервера
?
Веб-сервер — это ПО, которое отдаёт страницы посетителям (nginx, Apache, IIS, LiteSpeed и др.). Определяется по серверным заголовкам ответа (Server, X-Powered-By и т.п.). «Не определён» — сервер намеренно скрывает эти заголовки, это нормальная практика безопасности.
Сайт работает на веб-сервере nginx.
Мета-теги Готовность: 33%
Title
Academy of Social Sciences – The National Academy of Academics, Learned Societies and Practitioners in the Social Sciences
Заголовок страницы в браузере и поисковой выдаче
?
Title — главный SEO-заголовок страницы. Влияет на CTR в поиске и ранжирование. Оптимальная длина: 50–70 символов. Ключевые слова — ближе к началу.
Устраните дубли в title: academy(2), social(2), sciences(2)
Необходимо уменьшить число символов в title (текущее значение: 128, оптимально: от 40 до 45)
Description
Описание страницы в поисковой выдаче (сниппет)
?
Meta Description — текст под заголовком в выдаче. Напрямую на позиции не влияет, но влияет на CTR. Оптимальная длина: 120–160 символов.
Установите мета-тег description!
Keywords
Список ключевых слов страницы (устаревший тег)
?
Meta Keywords не учитывается Яндексом и Google для ранжирования с 2009–2012 годов. Заполнение не обязательно, но не вредит. Конкурент может использовать содержимое для анализа.
Установите мета-тег keywords!
Канонический Url
https://acss.org.uk/
Указывает поисковику основную версию страницы
?
Canonical (rel=canonical) предотвращает проблему дублей страниц. Должен точно совпадать с URL проверяемой страницы. Неправильный canonical может передать ссылочный вес на другую страницу.
Канонический Url прописан корректно.
Robots
Есть ошибки
Директивы для поисковых роботов на уровне страницы
?
Meta Robots управляет индексацией конкретной страницы: index/noindex — индексировать ли, follow/nofollow — следовать ли по ссылкам. Noindex полностью исключает страницу из поиска.
Meta-тег robots указан, но в нем содержится неизвестное значение...
Адаптивность
width=device-width, initial-scale=1
Настройка масштабирования на мобильных устройствах
?
Тег viewport (<meta name="viewport">) сообщает браузеру, как масштабировать страницу на мобильных. Стандарт: width=device-width, initial-scale=1. Отсутствие — признак отсутствия мобильной версии.
Meta-тег viewport со значением-константой width=device-width задаёт ширину страницы в соответствии с размером экрана.
Meta-тег viewport со значением initial-scale=1.0 определяет масштаб 1:1, т.е. «не масштабировать».
Разметка OpenGraph
Кол-во: 4
Мета-теги для красивых превью в соцсетях
?
OpenGraph (og:title, og:description, og:image) управляет тем, как страница выглядит при репосте в социальных сетях и мессенджерах. Отсутствие OG-тегов — невзрачный превью при шеринге.
Разметка OpenGraph задана. Страница оптимизирована под социальные сети.

Контент
Ошибок нет
Объём и качество текстового содержимого
?
Анализирует объём полезного текста на странице. Слишком мало — страница может считаться малополезной. Слишком много — ухудшается читаемость и восприятие.
Слова из title 12 встречаются в тексте достаточно.
Абзацев с текстом 29 достаточно.
Среднее число слов в абзаце 22 достаточно.
Кол-во знаков контента 7140 на странице оптимально.
Кол-во слов 1097 на странице оптимально.
Заголовки
Ошибок нет
Иерархия заголовков H1–H6
?
H1 должен быть один и содержать ключевой запрос. H2–H6 описывают подразделы. Пропуск уровней (H1 → H3) и несколько H1 — типичные ошибки, снижающие понятность страницы для поисковика.
На странице присутствуют заголовки <h1> 7. Это прекрасно.
На странице присутствуют заголовки <h2> 9. Это хорошо.
На странице присутствуют заголовки <h3> 11.
Тошнота
6,63
Насколько одно слово доминирует в тексте
?
Классическая тошнота = √(частота самого повторяющегося слова). Норма до 7–8: текст воспринимается естественно. Выше — поисковик может счесть страницу переспамленной.
Тошнота превышает норму 3. Измените текст страницы!
Академич. тошнота
25,80%
Насколько текст перенасыщен ключевыми словами
?
Академическая тошнота = (частота слова / общее количество слов) × 100%. Показывает долю конкретного слова в тексте. Норма 5–15%.

<p>Our work to ‘promote social science in the UK for public benefit’ is guided by our strategy. We inform and advocate to enhance and safeguard social science; we showcase its importance and use; we facilitate knowledge exchange to policy on issues of national importance; we foster multi-disciplinary approaches and innovation.</p>
<p>
</summary>
<p>We inspire diverse future generations of students; and we recognise excellence, convene and connect individuals and organisations. In short, we are a strong independent voice for social science and we champion its many applications in creating a better society.</p>

<p>Our human world is changing rapidly. Many of the great challenges we face are caused by humans and their solutions rest with humans. The list is long, from population demographics, climate change and sustainability, to COVID-19, levelling-up, social inclusion, and much more.</p>
<p>
</summary>
<p>It is vital that we understand the dynamics, interactions, and what works in managing societal challenges. It is equally as vital that we have informed citizens. Social science with its analysis and understanding of society, economy, people and place is fundamental to both and to a sustainable, stable and more equitable future.</p>
