What is a Website Audit?

A website audit uses a real headless browser (Chromium) to load your page and capture detailed performance metrics. Unlike API-based tools that estimate performance, this tool actually renders your page in a full browser environment, measuring exactly what your visitors experience.

Core Web Vitals Explained

  • LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) — Time until the largest content element is visible. Good: under 2.5 seconds.
  • FCP (First Contentful Paint) — Time until the first text or image is rendered. Good: under 1.8 seconds.
  • CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) — Visual stability score. Elements shifting during load is penalised. Good: under 0.1.
  • TTFB (Time to First Byte) — Server response time. Good: under 200ms.
  • DOM Complete — Time until the entire DOM is fully loaded and parsed.

SEO Factors

The SEO score evaluates on-page signals including title tag presence and length, meta description, heading hierarchy (H1-H6), Open Graph tags for social sharing, Twitter Cards, structured data (Schema.org), robots.txt, sitemap.xml, canonical URLs, and viewport configuration. These are the fundamental building blocks that search engines use to understand and rank your content.

Security Headers

Modern websites should implement several security headers to protect visitors. HSTS enforces HTTPS connections, Content-Security-Policy prevents XSS attacks, X-Frame-Options blocks clickjacking, and Referrer-Policy controls what information is sent with outbound links. A missing header does not necessarily mean a vulnerability, but implementing them demonstrates security best practice.

Performance Grading

The overall grade (A through F) is calculated from a combination of Web Vitals scores, total page size, number of requests, and load time. An A grade indicates excellent performance, while an F grade means significant optimisation is needed.

Request Waterfall

The waterfall shows every resource your page loads, in order. Each entry includes the URL, resource type (document, script, stylesheet, image, etc.), HTTP status code, size, and load time. Use this to identify slow or unnecessary requests that could be optimised, deferred, or removed.
