Vital Signs: Is Your Website Healthy or on Life Support?

Ever wondered how long you'll be around?

Imagine if there was a quick test to determine your lifespan. Well, there is!

Predicting Human Longevity: The Sitting Rising Test (SRT)

Developed by a doctor, the Sitting Rising Test (SRT) is designed to gauge your life expectancy.

The simple idea behind it: can you transition from a standing position to sitting and then back up without losing your balance or using your arms, hands, or knees for support?

Here's how the SRT works:

  • Don't worry about speed

  • Cross your feet

  • Sit down on the floor without losing balance

  • With feet still crossed, try to rise without using any limbs for support

Scoring ranges from 0 to 10. Deductions apply for each support limb used or if there's a visible loss of balance.

Amazingly, for every point you earn, there's a 21% DECREASE in mortality from all causes.

If you're over 50 and score a perfect 10, you’re a rare bird. You deserve a pat on the back!

4. Clarity in 10

Can a visitor grasp what you offer in 10 seconds or less?

Getting Stronger

Much like the SRT for humans, a high score for your website means it's brimming with life and ready to convert new customers.

A low score might hint it's time for some digital CPR.

Whether it's your own physical well-being or the health of your digital presence, regular checks and balances are essential.

So, how did you and your website score?
