Findings with evidence

FixHomepage serves a bot challenge page to automated clients

Our checker got a challenge page instead of your content: Zoho | Cloud Software Suite for Businesses. Findings below describe that page, not your real homepage.

Fix: AI crawlers get the same challenge and cannot read your site. In your CDN or firewall (Cloudflare, Akamai, Imperva), allow verified AI search bots, or lower the bot protection level on public pages.

ImproveJSON-LD: 1 block, types WebSite, SearchAction, Organization, Person

Organization is missing recommended logo. Person is missing recommended url.

Fix: Fix the listed properties, then retest at validator.schema.org.

ImproveMeta description, 178 characters

content="A unique and powerful software suite trusted by millions of businesses worldwide. Zoho covers your end-to-end business needs, from sales and marketing to finance, HR, and beyond."

Fix: Trim to about 160 characters.

FixServer responded in 2137 ms

Time to response headers from our checker, after 1 redirect. Final URL: https://www.zoho.com/

Fix: Slow responses can make crawlers give up. Add page caching or a CDN in front of the homepage.
