Scan statistics, response times in the results list, and smarter redirect reporting

This update covers a few things.

Scan statistics

After a scan completes, the results page now shows a statistics block at the top. It covers the HTTP status breakdown as a chart, response times, and how many of the found URLs are internal vs. external. There's also a table of the 5 slowest pages.

The response time part is worth calling out separately: average, minimum and maximum were technically available before, but buried inside the scan summary. They're now front and center.

Response times in the URL list

Each row in the URL list now shows the response time directly, color-coded by how fast or slow it is. Previously you had to open the detail view for every URL to see this. Clicking through a list of 300 URLs to find the slow ones wasn't exactly fun.

Blacklist from the results list

Related: there's now a Blacklist button directly in the results list. No need to open the detail modal first.

Redirect chains now report the right source

This one is particularly relevant if your site uses affiliate links or URL shorteners.

A common setup: you link to a URL shortener like bit.ly/xyz on your page. The shortener redirects to a product or landing page that has since been removed – returning a 404. Previously it would report the 404 as being linked from bit.ly/xyz. That tells you the shortener is broken – but not where on your site the link actually lives, which is what you want to fix.

What you actually need to know is which page on your site contains the link to bit.ly/xyz. That's what's reported now. Broken affiliate links and dead redirect targets are a common source of quietly rotting content, and they can affect how search engines evaluate your pages – so it's worth knowing about them.

One more thing: a WordPress plugin is in the works. It's done and waiting for approval on wordpress.org – I'll post a proper update once it's live.
