Contact usAre the tools really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no mailing list. Your answers are recorded anonymously so we can improve the tools; nothing identifies you unless you choose to send your results.
How accurate are the results?
They are a first read, built from your own answers or, for the website check, from Google’s own PageSpeed test. The full diagnostic replaces them with a count from your actual numbers and systems, with the workings shown.
What happens to the information I enter?
The self-check, scorecard and calculator run in your browser. The website check sends the address you enter to Google’s PageSpeed test, and Ask our guides sends your question to our server to find the answer in our published guides. We keep an anonymous record of the answers and results, with no name, email or IP address, to see how the tools are used. Nothing that identifies you reaches us unless you choose to send it.
Want more than a quick read?
The diagnostic does properly what these tools only estimate: six areas scored from your own numbers, every fix ranked and costed.
