Your contact form
Whether the form is wired to send somewhere, or shows a "thanks, we'll be in touch" message with nothing behind it.
What gets checked
The problems you can't spot by looking
None of these show up on your own homepage, and that's the trouble with them. They fail quietly, so the first sign is usually the phone not ringing.
Your email setup
Whether mail to your domain has anywhere to go, and whether SPF and DMARC are published, which is what makes it harder for someone to send email pretending to be you.
Blacklists
Whether your domain or mail server shows up on the public lists we check. A listing is something to look into, not a verdict.
Security basics
HTTPS, redirects, and the security headers a browser looks at before it decides whether to warn your visitors.
What search engines see
robots.txt, your sitemap, page titles, headings and structured data, which is how Google and AI answer engines work out what you do.
Honest unknowns
If a check can't be completed, the report says so. It's marked unknown, never quietly counted as a pass or a failure.
What you get
Plain findings, each with the evidence behind it
Every result tells you what we saw, why it matters, and what to do about it, in that order.
Where we couldn't complete a check, it's listed as unknown. That matters more than it sounds, because a report that turns "we couldn't check this" into "you don't have it" sends you off to fix something that was never broken.

How it works
Nothing for you to set up
It reads what's public, the same way any visitor or search engine would. No keys, no plugins, no admin access.
01
You enter your domain
Plus the address you want the report sent to. That's all we ask for.
02
We read your public pages and DNS
It doesn't submit your forms, log in anywhere, or change anything on your site.
03
The report lands in your inbox
What we found, what we couldn't check, and what to fix first.
Honest limits
What this report can't tell you
An outside check finds real problems. It can't see everything behind your website, and it won't pretend to.
Can't prove
Whether anyone reads what arrives
We can see a form is wired to send. We can't see whether a person actually reads what lands, and we don't send test messages to find out.
Can't see
Anything behind a login
The check is read-only and public. It doesn't touch your hosting, your inbox, or anything that needs a password.
Who's behind this
Real people, in Raleigh
Site Reality Report is run by Business Web Group and Enancial, a web development and digital strategy practice in Raleigh, North Carolina. We built it because the problems it checks for are the ones we kept finding on business websites, usually after months of missed enquiries.
Questions go to a person: info@enancial.com
Is it really free?
Yes. The free report covers everything listed above, focused on your homepage. The email also mentions a $27 full-site report, which crawls up to 30 pages, tests speed on phones and desktop, and ranks the fixes in order. You can ignore that, and the free report is still yours.
Do you need access to my website or hosting?
No. It reads only what's already public. Nothing is installed and nothing is submitted to your forms.
Will you add me to a mailing list?
No. You get one email with your report.
How long does it take?
Requesting it takes under a minute. The report comes by email once the check has run.
