    I ran the site through HTML validator and it picked up a invalid link. Looking at the code:

    
<!-- / Yoast SEO plugin. -->

<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//www.google.com' />
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//fonts.googleapis.com' />
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com' />
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//css.rating-widget.com' />
<link rel='dns-prefetch' href='//s.w.org' />

    The invalid link is:

    fonts.googleapis.com

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    This is to be expected as the links you are seeing are not valid. The link starts with // where it should be either https:// or https://.

    That said the links you are referring here are not generated by the Yoast SEO plugin. Therefore, we are unable to confirm what’s the exact source of these provided links, nor we can confirm how you can fix this.

    Yeah, but where has these links come from? What is responsible for putting them in my file? I assumed SEO Yoast because of the comment above. But then I see the rating widget link. I will investigate.

    These can be added by WordPress itself or by a plugin or theme.

    This topic discusses it further and provides some code to remove them, when needed.
