Description
Website Check-up gives a small business owner a straight answer to “what should I fix on my website first?”
Go to Tools, then Website Check-up, and press one button. BusinessMarketing.Pro reads your home page and the pages it links to, the way a search engine does, and within a few minutes shows you the top three fixes right in your dashboard, each explained in plain English. It also suggests a podcast on the AIHosts.fm network that suits your business, and emails the results to you so you can pass them to whoever looks after your site.
- Free, with no account to create and nothing to configure.
- Changes nothing on your site. It only reads your public pages.
- Nothing is sent anywhere until you tick the consent box and press the button.
- No banners, no notices, no tracking of your visitors.
Typical findings include a missing or overlong page title, a home page with no main heading, a page accidentally hidden from search engines, thin pages and missing search descriptions.
External services
This plugin uses BusinessMarketing.Pro’s free website check-up service, run by Archieboy Holdings, LLC, to check your site. It cannot work without it.
- What is sent, and when: only when an administrator ticks the consent box and presses “Run my free check-up”, the plugin sends your site’s home address (from your WordPress settings), the email address entered on the page, and the plugin’s version to https://www.businessmarketing.pro/api/wordpress/check-up. BusinessMarketing.Pro also sees the IP address of the server your site runs on. While the check-up runs, the plugin asks the same address every few seconds whether it has finished; those requests carry only the check-up’s number and key.
- What the service does with it: reads the public pages of your site, finds the top fixes, chooses a podcast that suits the business, and emails the results to the address you entered. The email also introduces PrivateChief Business, our marketing service. It creates no account in your name, and we will not write to you again about the check-up.
- Nothing about your site’s users, visitors, posts or settings is sent.

FAQ
-
Does it change anything on my site?
-
No. It only reads your public pages, as a search engine would. The plugin saves just the last result, so you can come back to it, and removes it when you delete the plugin.
-
Can I check a site on my own computer or a staging address?
-
No. The check-up reads your site from the internet, so the site must have a public web address.
-
How often can I run it?
-
A few times a day for each site, which is plenty: fixes take longer than that to make.
-
Is it really free?
-
Yes. There is nothing to buy in the plugin. The results page and the email mention PrivateChief Business, our paid marketing service, once, for owners who would like their marketing looked after for them.
