Decent speed, but optimizing further could improve engagement.

Several missing protections leave your users and data exposed.

Several issues make your site difficult for assistive technology users.

Well-optimized for search — your content is discoverable.

Good server performance with room for optimization.

Mostly compliant — a few items need attention.

Missing metadata means poor previews on social media and search.

Heavier than average — reducing page weight saves energy and bandwidth.

What fixing these means

Your site performs reasonably well, but a few targeted fixes could meaningfully improve results. Your LCP of 18.5s exceeds Google's 2.5s 'Good' threshold and the 1 performance issue below directly contributes to it. Addressing the critical issues below would have the most immediate impact on your user trust.

3 security gaps detected — browsers may warn visitors about your site.
Your LCP is 18.5s — fixing the 1 performance critical could bring it under Google's 2.5s 'Good' threshold.
1 accessibility issue excludes users who rely on assistive technology.

Conversion Barriers

4 critical 7 warning

11 barrier(s) likely increasing bounce by ~38%.

Speed (2)

Page takes 18.5s to load

+12% bounce

Users abandon at ~3s — you're 16.0s over the 2.5s threshold

Fix: Optimize render-blocking resources, preload the hero image, and compress images

High main-thread blocking time

+2% bounce

Page is non-interactive for 335ms after first paint

Fix: Defer third-party scripts and split large bundles

Trust (3)

Mixed content on HTTPS page

+8% bounce

Browsers block insecure subresources — broken images, missing scripts, warning badge

Fix: Change http:// URLs inside the page to https:// (or protocol-relative)

No HSTS header

+1% bounce

Returning visitors are briefly exposed to downgrade attacks on first request

Fix: Set Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains

No Content-Security-Policy header

+1% bounce

Higher XSS blast radius — one compromised script can exfiltrate the checkout form

Fix: Ship a reporting-only CSP first, then enforce once violations are clean

Usability (3)

Severe layout shift during page load

+6% bounce

Users mis-click when content jumps — converting intent into frustration

Fix: Reserve space for images, ads, and embeds with explicit width/height

1 form field(s) without a label

+2% bounce

Screen readers skip unlabeled fields; autofill can't identify them; checkout abandonment spikes

Fix: Associate every input with a visible <label for="…">; add autocomplete attributes

Viewport disables user zoom

+2% bounce

Visitors with low vision can't read the page — and some jurisdictions treat this as a legal risk

Fix: Remove user-scalable=no; drop maximum-scale if it's below 2

Content (1)

No structured data

+2% bounce

No rich-result eligibility in Google — lower SERP CTR vs competitors with stars and prices

Fix: Add JSON-LD for your page type (Product, Article, FAQPage, LocalBusiness, …)

Navigation (2)

No skip-to-content link

+1% bounce

Keyboard and screen-reader users must tab through the entire header on every page

Fix: Add a visible-on-focus <a href="#main">Skip to content</a> as the first focusable element

10 broken link(s) on the page

+5% bounce

Clicks land on 404s — trust drops and the session often ends

Fix: Fix or remove the broken destinations surfaced on the Content tab

Preliminary CRO audit — each barrier links to the tab with detailed analysis.

Performance

Insights

Remove large, duplicate JavaScript modules from bundles to reduce unnecessary bytes consumed by network activity.

Why this matters

Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.

Polyfills and transforms enable older browsers to use new JavaScript features. However, many aren't necessary for modern browsers. Consider modifying your JavaScript build process to not transpile Baseline features, unless you know you must support older browsers. Learn why most sites can deploy ES6+ code without transpiling

Why this matters

Shipping ES5 transpiled code to modern browsers wastes bytes — every user with an evergreen browser pays for compatibility you don't need.

Learn more

Most users today run browsers that natively support ES6+, async/await, optional chaining, and the rest of modern JavaScript. Transpiling to ES5 'just in case' adds 20-40% to your bundle for no benefit. Configure your build to target a modern browserslist, or ship a differential bundle pair (modern + legacy) with the module/nomodule pattern.

This is the Lighthouse audit fired when too much JS is shipped relative to what executes. The fix isn't a config flag — it requires bundle analysis (webpack-bundle-analyzer, rollup-plugin-visualizer), splitting routes into chunks, lazy-loading off-screen components, and removing unused dependencies. Fundamentally different from minification: minifying reduces byte count, this reduces what's downloaded at all.

Performance

Insights

Remove large, duplicate JavaScript modules from bundles to reduce unnecessary bytes consumed by network activity.

Why this matters

Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.

Polyfills and transforms enable older browsers to use new JavaScript features. However, many aren't necessary for modern browsers. Consider modifying your JavaScript build process to not transpile Baseline features, unless you know you must support older browsers. Learn why most sites can deploy ES6+ code without transpiling

Why this matters

Shipping ES5 transpiled code to modern browsers wastes bytes — every user with an evergreen browser pays for compatibility you don't need.

Learn more

Most users today run browsers that natively support ES6+, async/await, optional chaining, and the rest of modern JavaScript. Transpiling to ES5 'just in case' adds 20-40% to your bundle for no benefit. Configure your build to target a modern browserslist, or ship a differential bundle pair (modern + legacy) with the module/nomodule pattern.

This is the Lighthouse audit fired when too much JS is shipped relative to what executes. The fix isn't a config flag — it requires bundle analysis (webpack-bundle-analyzer, rollup-plugin-visualizer), splitting routes into chunks, lazy-loading off-screen components, and removing unused dependencies. Fundamentally different from minification: minifying reduces byte count, this reduces what's downloaded at all.
