Top Priorities (5)
HSTS header is missing
Without HSTS, a network attacker can downgrade the very first connection to HTTP and steal the user's session.
10 image(s) missing alt attribute
Each image without alt text is a WCAG 1.1.1 failure — invisible to screen-reader users, lost from Google Image Search.
11 link(s) with no accessible text
Links with no accessible text (empty <a></a>, image-only no alt, icon-only no aria-label) are unidentifiable to screen readers.
2 image-in-link without alt text
Image-only links with no alt create empty links — screen-reader users hear 'link' with no destination context.
3 control(s) without accessible label
Form controls without labels — assistive tech announces 'edit text' with no context; users can't complete forms.
Business case
What fixing the audit's findings is worth -- and what ignoring them keeps costing.
Return on investment
$375 investment → $15,415/month returns + USD 157,500 risk avoided
Figures combine localized regulatory fine ceilings, search/conversion value priced against local CPC, and bandwidth waste estimates. Results depend on implementation quality and audience composition. Not legal or financial advice.
Conversion barriers
10 barrier(s) likely increasing bounce by ~41%.
- Page takes 10.9s to loadUsers abandon at ~3s — you're 8.4s over the 2.5s threshold→ Optimize render-blocking resources, preload the hero image, and compress images
- Severe layout shift during page loadUsers mis-click when content jumps — converting intent into frustration→ Reserve space for images, ads, and embeds with explicit width/height
- 3 form field(s) without a labelScreen readers skip unlabeled fields; autofill can't identify them; checkout abandonment spikes→ Associate every input with a visible <label for="…">; add autocomplete attributes
- No viewport meta tagMobile browsers render at desktop width and shrink — text unreadable, tap targets miniature→ Add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
- 4 broken link(s) on the pageClicks land on 404s — trust drops and the session often ends→ Fix or remove the broken destinations surfaced on the Content tab

Observations (5)
Runtime exposed via X-Powered-By header
The X-Powered-By header reveals 'PHP 7.4.33'. Remove this header in production to reduce information leakage.
WordPress detected — review security configuration
WordPress sites benefit from: protecting wp-login.php, disabling XML-RPC if unused, restricting REST API access, and keeping all plugins and themes up to date. Check the Security tab for specific findings.
No build tool detected
A framework (Disqus) was detected but no bundler was identified. The build tool may not be detectable from output patterns, or the site may use the framework's built-in bundler.
PHP version may be outdated
Detected PHP 7.4.33. The current major version is 8. Consider updating for security patches and new features.
Complex technology stack detected
27 technologies identified. A complex stack increases maintenance burden and attack surface. Consider whether all components are actively needed.
