Group E2 pointsrubric r1
We follow homepage links whose path or text mentions about, company or contact, falling back to /about and /contact, and check that each returns a 2xx response.
Why it matters
Before an agent recommends a business or sends a user to it, it looks for evidence that a real organization is behind the site. Without an About page or contact details it has no way to confirm who you are. Each page is worth 1 point.
How to fix it
- Create
/aboutwith the company name, what it does and where it is based. - Create
/contactwith an email address, and a phone number or postal address if you have one. - Link both from the homepage header or footer as plain
<a href>links. - Make sure both return
200, not a redirect to the homepage.
How to verify
Run curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" https://example.com/about and the same for /contact.
