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
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.
Скорость загрузки
~0,57сек
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 0,57сек оптимальна.
Объем документа
64Кб
Размер HTML-кода страницы
?
Слишком большой HTML замедляет парсинг браузером и сканирование поисковым роботом. Рекомендуется не более 200 Кб.
Объем html-документа 64Кб оптимален.
Структура html-документа корректна.
Ресурсы
Ресурсы: 1
Внешние ресурсы страницы (CSS, JS, изображения)
?
Количество и тип подключённых ресурсов влияют на скорость загрузки. Большое число запросов увеличивает время рендеринга страницы.

CMS
Не определена
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.
CMS не определена. Вероятно, сайт самописный либо движок надёжно скрыт. Это не ошибка.
Веб-сервер
GitHub.com
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.
В заголовке Server указано: GitHub.com.
Мета-теги Готовность: 32%
Title
Bookshelf — Yennie Jun
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.
Необходимо увеличить число символов в title (текущее значение мало: 22, минимум: 25, оптимально: от 40 до 45)
Дублей словоформ в title не найдено.
Description
Yennie Jun's personal website
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.
Необходимо увеличить число символов в description (текущее значение мало: 29, минимум: 80, оптимально: от 120 до 130)
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
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.
Рекомендуем прописать канонический Url.
Robots
Ошибок нет
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 не указан. Страница свободна для индексации.
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
Не найдено
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 не задана. Страница не оптимизирована под социальные сети. Мета-теги с разметкой Og помогают социальным роботам лучше структурировать Ваш сайт.

Структура
Ошибок нет
Семантические HTML-элементы страницы
?
Проверяет наличие основных структурных элементов: nav, header, footer, main. Корректная семантическая структура помогает поисковику понять архитектуру страницы.
Структура документа корректна (теги <html> и <body> присутствуют в одном экземпляре).
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 4 встречаются в тексте достаточно.
Абзацев с текстом 60 достаточно.
Среднее число слов в абзаце 52 достаточно.
Кол-во знаков контента 23318 на странице оптимально.
Кол-во слов 4092 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> 1. Это прекрасно.
На странице присутствуют заголовки <h3> 58.
Тошнота
6,48
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 5. Измените текст страницы!
Академич. тошнота
16,32%
Насколько текст перенасыщен ключевыми словами
?
Академическая тошнота = (частота слова / общее количество слов) × 100%. Показывает долю конкретного слова в тексте. Норма 5–15%.
Академическая тошнота превышает норму 5-15%. Измените текст страницы!

Индексация Готовность: 50%
Индексирование
Ошибок нет
Разрешено ли индексирование страницы
?
Проверяет, не закрыта ли страница от индексации через robots.txt, meta robots или X-Robots-Tag. Страница, закрытая от индексации, не появится в поисковой выдаче.
Анкоров на странице 67 оптимально. Поисковые роботы обязательно проиндексируют сайт.
Robots.txt
Не найден
Файл управления сканированием сайта роботами
?
Robots.txt указывает поисковым роботам, какие страницы сканировать, а какие — нет. Ошибки в файле могут случайно закрыть важные разделы от индексации.
Файл robots.txt не найден (ошибка 404). Крайне рекомендуем добавить файл robots.txt, это правило хорошего тона для поисковых роботов.
Sitemap
Кол-во: 0
XML-карта сайта для поисковиков
?
Sitemap.xml помогает поисковику быстрее находить и индексировать страницы. Особенно важен для крупных сайтов и новых страниц, на которые ещё нет входящих ссылок.
Robots.txt не содержит ссылку на карту сайта. Рекомендуется добавить карту сайта и указать ссылку на нее в robots.txt.
Внутренние ссылки
Кол-во: 61
Ссылки на другие страницы своего сайта
?
Внутренние ссылки распределяют ссылочный вес между страницами и помогают поисковику обходить сайт. Пустые анкоры и ссылки на запрещённые robots.txt страницы — типичные ошибки.
Внутренних ссылок на странице 61 оптимально.
На странице присутствуют изображения 1.

While the Three Body Problem was actually a lot better, this book kind of made me want to vomit. In terms of storyline, it was okay … the details of the futuristic society felt a bit tacky and shoddy and not well thought out. Especially the societal values of the underground society felt really handwavy. The science part of the spaceships and the space wars were cool, as were the book’s way of addressing the Fermi paradox.</p> <div class="book-tags" data-astro-cid-m7z4spgw="">Fiction · Sci-Fi</div> </div>

Prof. Underwood has a very pleasant literary style. As a reader who is well versed in both historical ideas and computer science concepts, this book was quite a pleasure to read. The technical details of his methods were explained in a way that was easy to understand but also not too simplified.</p> <div class="book-tags" data-astro-cid-m7z4spgw="">Nonfiction · Technology</div> </div>

Since I read this right after Little Fires Everywhere, I immediately sensed that this book was earlier and that Ng's style was not as matured. There were a couple plot points that did not make as much sense and some weird stylistic things (maybe complexity felt a bit strained?) However in general I enjoyed the story a lot. So many feelings. So many secrets.</p> <div class="book-tags" data-astro-cid-m7z4spgw="">Fiction</div> </div>

This is related to Mia's life as an itinerant artist, but also in general to the theme of 'little fires.' Following your passion.

I did not realize the opioid epidemic was such a big problem in the United States. I learned a lot about the Xalisco Boys, Big Pharma (especially Purdue and Oxycontin), the morphine molecule, and the scary addictive qualities of heroin. I liked that Quinones followed several different storylines, although that felt a little lost as I got near the end. I liked that he ended on a note of hope — that opiods, as an agent of change, has the potential to bring about positive changes in America, such as bringing about new communities.</p> <div class="book-tags" data-astro-cid-m7z4spgw="">Nonfiction · History</div> </div>

However, it was really worth my time and I learned a lot about Lincoln's personality, leadership, and character. Goodwin's comparative storytelling was very clever (widening the lens to tell not just Lincoln's story, but also the story of his closest family members, friends, and political rivals) and I think a more instructive, valuable, and well-rounded story than if she had only focused on Lincoln and his achievements.</p> <div class="book-tags" data-astro-cid-m7z4spgw="">Nonfiction · Biography · History</div> </div>
