Your website's health is 64 out of 100
We read 6 pages of theislandhouse.com on 18 October 2026, the way Google and AI assistants do, and found 17 things to fix. These cost you the most guests:
- 1Your website is heavy on a phone
Most guests look on their phone, often on mobile data, and leave a page that's slow to open.
What to do: Ask whoever looks after your website to compress your photos and files.
- 2Your photos have no descriptions
Google and AI assistants can't tell what your photos show.
What to do: Describe each photo in a few words: "Deluxe room with lake view".
- No button to book on your home page, so a guest who wants to book direct has to hunt for one
- No WhatsApp link, where most guests in India ask first
- No phone number a guest can tap to call
- AI assistants can read your website
One thing to do this week
Each one comes from what we found above, and each wins back guests who book you direct.
- 1Your website is heavy on a phone
Most guests look on their phone, often on mobile data, and leave a page that's slow to open.
