FIX
6 issues found across 15 images
Warning::
2 images significantly larger than display size
Resizing to display dimensions could save approximately 141 KB.
Got: ~141 KB wasted
Warning::
15 images missing explicit width/height
Images without dimensions cause layout shifts (CLS). Set explicit width and height attributes.
Info::
3 below-fold images missing loading="lazy"
Lazy loading defers below-fold images, reducing initial page weight.
Info::
6 of 15 images use legacy formats
Info::
2 image(s) wider than 400px without srcset (no responsive serving)
These images deliver the same asset to every viewport (mobile, tablet, retina). Adding srcset / <picture> lets the browser pick a viewport-appropriate variant and typically saves 40-70% of bytes on mobile. Sample: https://balford.net/media/2024/07/solenoid-valve-housing.jpg, https://balford.net/media/2026/07/balford-home-pages-hero.webp.
Info::
8 image(s) rendered at a different aspect ratio than the source
The displayed dimensions distort the source -- CSS is forcing the image into a container at the wrong ratio, producing visible stretching or squashing. Either crop the source to match or use object-fit: cover (and accept the crop). Sample: https://balford.net/media/2024/07/solenoid-valve-housing.jpg, https://balford.net/media/2026/07/balford-metal-stamping-std.webp, https://balford.net/media/2026/07/balford-metal-machining-std.webp (+5 more).

PASS
1 OG/Twitter depth issue(s) detected
Info::
1 Twitter Card field(s) differ from Open Graph counterparts
Twitter Cards inherit values from Open Graph tags when the Twitter-specific tag is absent (`twitter:title` falls back to `og:title`, etc.). Explicitly-set Twitter values that DIFFER from OG are usually stale -- the marketing team updates `og:title` for FB/LinkedIn previews and forgets to update `twitter:title` separately, leaving Twitter showing the old text. Mismatches: - description: twitter="Balford manufactures solenoid valve hous...", og="Deep drawn solenoid valve housings, prec..." Fix: either remove the redundant Twitter-specific tags (rely on inheritance) or sync them when updating OG.
