Document doesn't have a valid `hreflang`

hreflang links tell search engines what version of a page they should list in search results for a given language or region. [Learn more about `hreflang`].

List items (`<li>`) are not contained within `<ul>`, `<ol>` or `<menu>` parent elements.

Screen readers require list items (`

  • `) to be contained within a parent `
    • Avoid multiple page redirects

    Redirects introduce additional delays before the page can be loaded. [Learn how to avoid page redirects].

    Third parties

    Third party code can significantly impact load performance. [Reduce and defer loading of third party code] to prioritize your page's content.

    Minimize main-thread work

    Consider reducing the time spent parsing, compiling and executing JS. You may find delivering smaller JS payloads helps with this. [Learn how to minimize main-thread work]

    Lists do not contain only `<li>` elements and script supporting elements (`<script>` and `<template>`).

    Screen readers have a specific way of announcing lists. Ensuring proper list structure aids screen reader output. [Learn more about proper list structure].

    LCP request discovery

    Optimize LCP by making the LCP image [discoverable] from the HTML immediately, and [avoiding lazy-loading]

    Reduce initial server response time

    Keep the server response time for the main document short because all other requests depend on it. [Learn more about the Time to First Byte metric].

    Background and foreground colors do not have a sufficient contrast ratio.

    Low-contrast text is difficult or impossible for many users to read. [Learn how to provide sufficient color contrast].

    Reduce unused JavaScript

    Reduce unused JavaScript and defer loading scripts until they are required to decrease bytes consumed by network activity. [Learn how to reduce unused JavaScript].

    Document request latency

    Your first network request is the most important. Reduce its latency by avoiding redirects, ensuring a fast server response, and enabling text compression.

    Select elements do not have associated label elements.

    Form elements without effective labels can create frustrating experiences for screen reader users. [Learn more about the `select` element].

    Layout shift culprits

    Layout shifts occur when elements move absent any user interaction. [Investigate the causes of layout shifts], such as elements being added, removed, or their fonts changing as the page loads.

    Serve images in next-gen formats

    Image formats like WebP and AVIF often provide better compression than PNG or JPEG, which means faster downloads and less data consumption. [Learn more about modern image formats].

    Render blocking requests

    Requests are blocking the page's initial render, which may delay LCP. [Deferring or inlining] can move these network requests out of the critical path.

    Image elements do not have `[alt]` attributes

    Informative elements should aim for short, descriptive alternate text. Decorative elements can be ignored with an empty alt attribute. [Learn more about the `alt` attribute].

    Largest Contentful Paint element

    This is the largest contentful element painted within the viewport. [Learn more about the Largest Contentful Paint element]

    Links do not have a discernible name

    Link text (and alternate text for images, when used as links) that is discernible, unique, and focusable improves the navigation experience for screen reader users. [Learn how to make links accessible].

    Image elements have `[alt]` attributes that are redundant text.

    Informative elements should aim for short, descriptive alternative text. Alternative text that is exactly the same as the text adjacent to the link or image is potentially confusing for screen reader users, because the text will be read twice. [Learn more about the `alt` attribute].

    Avoid an excessive DOM size

    A large DOM will increase memory usage, cause longer [style calculations], and produce costly [layout reflows]. [Learn how to avoid an excessive DOM size].

    Browser errors were logged to the console

    Errors logged to the console indicate unresolved problems. They can come from network request failures and other browser concerns. [Learn more about this errors in console diagnostic audit]

    Buttons do not have an accessible name

    When a button doesn't have an accessible name, screen readers announce it as "button", making it unusable for users who rely on screen readers. [Learn how to make buttons more accessible].

    Document does not have a meta description

    Meta descriptions may be included in search results to concisely summarize page content. [Learn more about the meta description].

    Improve image delivery

    Reducing the download time of images can improve the perceived load time of the page and LCP. [Learn more about optimizing image size]

    Links do not have descriptive text

    Descriptive link text helps search engines understand your content. [Learn how to make links more accessible].

    Speed Index

    Speed Index shows how quickly the contents of a page are visibly populated. [Learn more about the Speed Index metric].

    Eliminate render-blocking resources

    Resources are blocking the first paint of your page. Consider delivering critical JS/CSS inline and deferring all non-critical JS/styles. [Learn how to eliminate render-blocking resources].

    Heading elements are not in a sequentially-descending order

    Properly ordered headings that do not skip levels convey the semantic structure of the page, making it easier to navigate and understand when using assistive technologies. [Learn more about heading order].
