Links are not crawlable

Search engines may use `href` attributes on links to crawl websites. Ensure that the `href` attribute of anchor elements links to an appropriate destination, so more pages of the site can be discovered. [Learn how to make links crawlable]

Third parties

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

LCP request discovery

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

`[aria-*]` attributes do not match their roles

Each ARIA `role` supports a specific subset of `aria-*` attributes. Mismatching these invalidates the `aria-*` attributes. [Learn how to match ARIA attributes to their roles].

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].

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

Screen readers require list items (`

  • `) to be contained within a parent `
  • Properly size images

    Serve images that are appropriately-sized to save cellular data and improve load time. [Learn how to size images].

    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].

    Elements with an ARIA `[role]` that require children to contain a specific `[role]` are missing some or all of those required children.

    Some ARIA parent roles must contain specific child roles to perform their intended accessibility functions. [Learn more about roles and required children elements].

    `[user-scalable="no"]` is used in the `<meta name="viewport">` element or the `[maximum-scale]` attribute is less than 5.

    Disabling zooming is problematic for users with low vision who rely on screen magnification to properly see the contents of a web page. [Learn more about the viewport meta tag].

    `<html>` element does not have a `[lang]` attribute

    If a page doesn't specify a `lang` attribute, a screen reader assumes that the page is in the default language that the user chose when setting up the screen reader. If the page isn't actually in the default language, then the screen reader might not announce the page's text correctly. [Learn more about the `lang` attribute].

    Minify JavaScript

    Minifying JavaScript files can reduce payload sizes and script parse time. [Learn how to minify JavaScript].

    ARIA input fields do not have accessible names

    When an input field doesn't have an accessible name, screen readers announce it with a generic name, making it unusable for users who rely on screen readers. [Learn more about input field labels].

    Links do not have descriptive text

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

    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].

    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].

    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]

    `[aria-*]` attributes do not have valid values

    Assistive technologies, like screen readers, can't interpret ARIA attributes with invalid values. [Learn more about valid values for ARIA attributes].

    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].

    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].

    Efficiently encode images

    Optimized images load faster and consume less cellular data. [Learn how to efficiently encode images].

    Largest Contentful Paint element

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