0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

SEO-proffs.se is a Swedish website serving as an index and informational resource for Swedish SEO professionals. It aims to assist consumers and businesses in selecting SEO service providers by listing various consultants and companies. The site is a sister site to SEO-forum.se and is operated by TodaysWeb. The business model is primarily informational and directory-based, targeting Swedish users interested in SEO services. Technically, the site uses basic web technologies including jQuery and multiple third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics, StatCounter, and Redistats. The site is mobile responsive with moderate performance but lacks advanced CMS or modern frameworks. Security posture is basic with HTTPS enabled but missing important security headers and no visible privacy or cookie policies, which impacts compliance and trust. WHOIS data for the domain is unavailable, likely due to the domain being a subdomain or query issues, which reduces trustworthiness slightly. Overall, the site is functional and provides relevant content but would benefit from improved security and privacy practices.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The website occupies a niche position as a Swedish SEO professional directory and resource hub. Its competitive advantage lies in its association with SEO-forum.se, a large SEO community. The business model is informational, relying on listings and referrals rather than direct service sales. Target customers are Swedish businesses and individuals seeking SEO expertise. The site shows signs of longevity (copyright 2008-2025) but lacks modern business transparency such as contact details or privacy policies. Partnerships with related SEO sites and ownership by TodaysWeb indicate a small but focused ecosystem. Growth potential depends on improving trust and compliance to attract more users and SEO professionals.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a basic security maturity level. HTTPS is implemented, which is mandatory, but no advanced security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) are detected. There are no visible forms or data collection points, reducing attack surface, but also no incident response or security policy information is provided. The use of multiple third-party tracking scripts without consent mechanisms indicates privacy compliance gaps, especially under GDPR. No vulnerabilities or malware indicators were found in the content. The lack of WHOIS data reduces domain trust. Overall, the security posture is adequate for an informational site but requires enhancements to meet modern compliance and security standards.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie policy with consent mechanisms to improve GDPR compliance.
  2. Add security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection against common web attacks.
  3. Provide clear contact information including emails and phone numbers to improve business credibility and user trust.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts to minimize privacy risks and potential vulnerabilities.
  5. Consider publishing a security policy and incident response contact details to demonstrate security maturity and readiness.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a simple technology stack primarily based on jQuery and standard HTML/CSS with inline styles. It includes multiple analytics and tracking scripts from Google Analytics, StatCounter, and Redistats. The site is mobile responsive with CSS media queries but lacks modern frameworks or CMS platforms. Performance is moderate with no explicit optimization techniques detected. The absence of structured data (JSON-LD, Open Graph) limits SEO potential. Hosting provider and infrastructure details are not disclosed. The site would benefit from modernization including adoption of structured data, improved accessibility features, and enhanced security configurations.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
