Full sweep

Give us one address and we’ll run every check that fits it. The table fills in as results come back, and each line opens the full explanation.

Give it about a minute. Checks run three at a time, and we don’t keep the address.

What a sweep is good for

Sites and mail setups rarely break in one spectacular way. More often it’s a pile of small things nobody has looked at in a while: a certificate someone renews by hand, a redirect that takes three hops, a DMARC record that has been “just monitoring” for two years. A sweep lines them all up on one page, so you know how big the job is before you pick up a tool.

Read the table as a to-do list. “Fix” means something is broken for real visitors or real recipients right now, so start there. “Improve” is costing you a bit of speed, reach or trust. “Fine” and “Note” can be left alone.

Page sweep or domain sweep

A page sweep loads one address the way a browser would and goes through what comes back: the connection, the response headers, the HTML, the files it pulls in. Your home page isn’t always the one that matters most, so feel free to point it at a product page or a form.

A domain sweep doesn’t load any page. It reads the public records about the name itself: DNS, mail servers, authentication records, certificate logs, registration data. That’s the one to run when mail is going missing, or when you’re trying to work out who controls what.

Why some lines take longer

Each line is its own check with its own time limit. A few rely on outside services (Chrome’s field data for speed, for instance), so those start first and don’t keep you waiting at the end. A line that says “No answer” usually means the site under test was slow to reply. Open that check and run it by itself.
