Free website audit for small businesses
See how Google rates your site for speed, accessibility and SEO, and what to fix first. Takes about a minute.
What the scores mean
The test runs Google Lighthouse, the same engine behind PageSpeed Insights. Each of the four categories gets a score out of 100.
- 90–100Good
- Fast and well built. Keep it that way.
- 50–89Needs work
- Usable, but visitors on phones notice the wait.
- 0–49Poor
- People are likely leaving before the page finishes loading.
- Performance
- How quickly the page shows up and responds on a mid-range phone over a cellular connection.
- Accessibility
- Whether people using screen readers, keyboards or larger text can use the page.
- Best practices
- Security and code health: HTTPS, no browser errors, no outdated libraries.
- SEO
- The basics Google needs to read and list the page: titles, descriptions, crawlable links.
Why speed matters for Google
Google uses page experience, including how fast a page loads on a phone, as one of the signals for ranking. It matters more for people than for rankings, though. When a page takes more than a few seconds, a large share of mobile visitors give up and go back to the search results, where your competitor is one tap away.
More on this: why your website's Lighthouse score costs you customers, why is my website slow, and how to improve your PageSpeed score.
The usual culprits
- Oversized images. Photos straight from a camera or stock site are often 5–10 times bigger than the screen needs.
- Slow or shared hosting. Cheap hosting can take a second or more just to start sending the page.
- Scripts that load first. Chat widgets, trackers and sliders that load before your content hold up everything else.
- Page builder bloat. Drag-and-drop builders and stacks of plugins add code every visitor has to download.
- Missing labels. Buttons and form fields without names are invisible to screen readers.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no account. We ask for your email so we can follow up if you want help.
Why does my score change between runs?
Lighthouse measures a real page load, and network and server timing vary a little each time. A few points either way is normal.
Will you contact me?
Only about your result, and only once, unless you ask for help. We never sell or share your email.
Does this test my whole website?
It tests the one page you enter. Start with your home page, since that is where most visitors land.
Why mobile?
Most local searches happen on phones, and the mobile test is the stricter of the two.
