Guide

Why website security checks matter for US small businesses

Customers notice padlocks and browser warnings. This free checker highlights HTTPS and header gaps that hurt trust — especially for service businesses collecting form leads.

These free WebSolNet tools are built for US small business owners — HVAC, auto repair, home services, coaches, and product sellers — who want clear answers without an agency retainer. Run a URL, read the notes, then decide whether to fix it yourself or get a quote.

Practical tips

  • Force HTTPS sitewide after SSL is installed — mixed content still breaks trust.
  • Pair this check with WordPress updates, strong passwords, and backups.
  • Re-run after a host move or redesign launch.

Quick FAQ

Does this replace a full security audit?

No. It is a fast public check. WordPress maintenance still needs updates, backups, and hardened logins.

What should I fix first?

HTTPS/SSL problems first, then obvious missing headers, then cookie flags if you set sessions.
