Our Observations & Analysis

- The website's loading speed was significantly slow due to internal code and image-related issues, making user retention and engagement a concern.
- The absence of HTTP pages, Schema, Canonical, redirection issues, and OG tags negatively affected the website's visibility and rankings.
- The absence of a structured website hierarchy made user navigation complex, potentially leading to bounce rates and poor user experience.
- The majority of the site's backlinks were "nofollow," which potentially stunted its organic growth.
