Technical website Audit of Hunger Station

Here, the Spam Score of the website is high, it must not be more than 5%. It is very dangerous for the website’s ranking over search engines like Google and Bing. Domain Authority of the website is somewhat ok but they need some investigation on the quality and relevancy of this site to lower the spam score.

Page Speed of the website is very crucial for user experience as it is found in most of the studies that if a website is not loading in 2-3 seconds then the user closes the website. Google suggests that the average load time of the website should be under 2 seconds. But here in Hunger Station website, the fully loading time of the website is above 4 seconds which is not good and can be improved by various optimizations.

Traffic and Domain Analysis of Website

Organic Search Traffic is very low, which can be improved by proper keyword research, backlinks planning and by implementing Technical SEO corrections and engaging content marketing strategies for the website.

The bounce rate of Hunger Station is 71.89% which shows that more than 70% of users leave the website before performing any action. So, a proper website design and engaging content are required to compel the user to take action. Also, right now they are not accepting any orders from the website which can be a game-changer.

Heading tags are missing on many important pages of the website. These tags separate the heading and subheading of the web page and rank according to their importance. Using the correct H1 tag makes a big difference to SEO performance. Also, the Alt tags are missing from the image. The alt tag is a snippet of detailed information describing what an image shows. A good alt tag makes a great impact on the user experience.

Website Issues

• Search Box

The search box is not given on the hunger station website. It should be provided on a website like “Swiggy” so that the user can search for food and restaurants. Giving the search box will make the website more user-friendly and will also make better restaurant website design in Bahrain.

• Offers

The offers section should be added to the website like the “talabat” website. It attracts the customers and as a result, they will engage more on the website and the chances of conversions increase automatically.

• How It works

The website needs some good content strategy for the long-term conversions. Adding “how it works” section makes the website more understandable and helpful for the users as well.

No Order from Website

The website is not user-friendly. There is no option for the users to order food online from the website. While ordering food it is being asked to download the app which will take more time for the user. Also, some of the new users try and test the food and the website is perfect for those, they will not download an app for a one-time order.
