Minify JavaScript

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

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]

Minify CSS

Minifying CSS files can reduce network payload sizes. [Learn how to minify CSS].

Avoid serving legacy JavaScript to modern browsers

Polyfills and transforms enable legacy browsers to use new JavaScript features. However, many aren't necessary for modern browsers. For your bundled JavaScript, adopt a modern script deployment strategy using [module/nomodule feature detection] to reduce the amount of code shipped to modern browsers, while retaining support for legacy browsers. [Learn how to serve modern JavaScript]

Displays images with incorrect aspect ratio

Image display dimensions should match natural aspect ratio. [Learn more about image aspect ratio].

Avoid large layout shifts

These are the largest layout shifts observed on the page. Each table item represents a single layout shift, and shows the element that shifted the most. Below each item are possible root causes that led to the layout shift. Some of these layout shifts may not be included in the CLS metric value due to [windowing]. [Learn how to improve CLS]

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

Screen readers require list items (`

  • `) to be contained within a parent `
  • 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.

    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].

    Uses third-party cookies

    Chrome is moving towards a new experience that allows users to choose to browse without third-party cookies. [Learn more about third-party cookies].

    Links do not have descriptive text

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

    LCP request discovery

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

    Serves images with low resolution

    Image natural dimensions should be proportional to the display size and the pixel ratio to maximize image clarity. [Learn how to provide responsive images].

    Third parties

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

    robots.txt is not valid

    If your robots.txt file is malformed, crawlers may not be able to understand how you want your website to be crawled or indexed. [Learn more about robots.txt].

    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 JavaScript execution time

    Consider reducing the time spent parsing, compiling, and executing JS. You may find delivering smaller JS payloads helps with this. [Learn how to reduce Javascript execution time].

    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]

    Defer offscreen images

    Consider lazy-loading offscreen and hidden images after all critical resources have finished loading to lower time to interactive. [Learn how to defer offscreen images].

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Visible text labels that do not match the accessible name can result in a confusing experience for screen reader users. [Learn more about accessible names].

    `<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].

    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].

    Issues were logged in the `Issues` panel in Chrome Devtools

    Issues logged to the `Issues` panel in Chrome Devtools indicate unresolved problems. They can come from network request failures, insufficient security controls, and other browser concerns. Open up the Issues panel in Chrome DevTools for more details on each issue.

    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]

    Links rely on color to be distinguishable.

    Low-contrast text is difficult or impossible for many users to read. Link text that is discernible improves the experience for users with low vision. [Learn how to make links distinguishable].

    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].

    Reduce unused CSS

    Reduce unused rules from stylesheets and defer CSS not used for above-the-fold content to decrease bytes consumed by network activity. [Learn how to reduce unused CSS].
