Home page is thin on content
19.4%
of the 3,044 free scans considered in the last 30 days raised this finding. That is 591 scans across 588 distinct sites. 95% interval 16.4% to 22.8%.
What it means
A page with little text gives an answer engine little to quote or summarize with confidence.
How to fix it
Link your important pages from the home page or main nav. A page reachable only by search is a page most crawlers will find late or not at all.
How to check it yourself
Load the home page and check whether your important pages are linked from it or the main navigation. Pages reachable only by search are not linked.
What fixed looks like
The home page and main navigation link directly to your important pages.
How we measured this
Go Voltic scans a site and records which findings it raises. The share above is over every free four-page scan in the last 30 days that loaded at least one page, which is 3,044 scans. Deep scans of paid reports and of the research sweep read a site at a different depth and are a separate population, never in this denominator. It is not a survey and it is not an estimate: it is a count of what our own scanner found. Sites are counted once each in the distinct-sites figure, so a site scanned twice does not weigh double there.
The interval is a 95% Wilson interval. A share printed without its sample size reads as certainty and is indistinguishable from a guess, so both are always shown. Figures on this page were computed on 2026-09-08.
The same share sits beside every other finding on the benchmarks page, which also carries the whole table as CSV and JSON and says how to cite it.
Check your own site
The free scan reads four pages and reports every finding it raises, including this one. It takes about ten seconds and asks for nothing but the address.
