Properly size images

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

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].

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.

LCP request discovery

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

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].

Some third-party resources can be lazy loaded with a facade

Some third-party embeds can be lazy loaded. Consider replacing them with a facade until they are required. [Learn how to defer third-parties with a facade].

Reduce the impact of third-party code

Third-party code can significantly impact load performance. Limit the number of redundant third-party providers and try to load third-party code after your page has primarily finished loading. [Learn how to minimize third-party impact].

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].

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].

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].

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].

Skip links are not focusable.

Including a skip link can help users skip to the main content to save time. [Learn more about skip links].

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].

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.

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].

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.

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].

Third parties

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