Notes

Plain checks on what was found. Worth fixing if you look after this site.

Notes

● FineThe title is 18 characters, short enough to show in full in search results.
▲ CheckThe description is only 43 characters. There is room to say more.
▲ CheckThe favicon is dark on a see-through background, so it nearly disappears on dark browser tabs.
