A field that appears to collect password information is not using `type="password"`. This means the password will be visible as the user types it, which is a security and privacy concern. Password fields should always use the proper input type to ensure the text is masked.
<input type="text" name="password" placeholder="Enter password">
Change the input type to `password` to ensure the text is masked.
<input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Enter password">
Using `type="password"` ensures that the password is masked as the user types, protecting it from shoulder surfing and accidental exposure. It also enables proper browser password management features.
This issue can affect your site's search engine rankings and user experience. Addressing it promptly helps ensure optimal performance and visibility in search results.
