How this was measured
Measured by Roentgen 1.27.0 on 2026-09-15. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.
This is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 7 that apply to a content funnel. A low count means we did not detect those patterns, not that the funnel is weak.
Walk 516 links on the entry page, 507 walkable. 2 matched a funnel step; we captured 4 pages in all, this one included.

Absence is a measurement, not a recommendation: we do not know why a tactic is missing, whether it belongs here, or whether adding it would change anything. Where a walk stopped early, a tactic living deeper would also read as not detected.
How well it’s built
15 run · 6 flaggedcontrast, mobile, typography, accessibility, weight — each with what would fix it
measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinion6 of 14 measured checks need work1 could not be measured — not counted either way
Text contrast (WCAG AA)
contrast:84% of measurable text passes WCAG AA. 4+ runs fail. 76% of text was unmeasurable (over images/gradients). not counted either way.
worst: “Sign In” at 1:1 (16px, #ffffff on #ffffff). needs 4.5:1
FixRaise text/background contrast to ≥4.5:1 (≥3:1 for large text), especially on CTAs and body copy.
Named controls
a11y:102 buttons/links have no accessible name (icon-only, no aria-label).
FixAdd aria-label to icon-only buttons and links.
Oversized images
weight:52 images are shipped at more than 2x the width shown.
“46nzG6_1F8RBsQS00?type=webp_416x288” is 416px wide, displayed at 180px
FixServe responsive sizes (srcset/sizes) matching the rendered width.
Landmark regions
structure:No <header> or <footer> landmark. screen-reader users cannot jump between regions.
FixWrap the page in <header>, <main> and <footer> (or matching ARIA roles).
Tap-target size (mobile)
mobile:134 of 182 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.
smallest: “(unnamed)” at 32×32px
FixGive tappable controls a ≥44×44px hit area. the touch minimum.
Worth knowing4
Heading levels
2 headings skip a level (e.g. <h2> followed by <h4>). Screen-reader users navigate by this outline.
FixStep heading levels one at a time; use CSS for size, not a deeper level.
a11y:Skip link
No same-page “skip to content” link was found. Keyboard users tab through the whole nav on every page.
FixAdd a first-in-DOM <a href="#main"> that is visible on focus.
a11y:Label in name
186 controls have an aria-label that does not contain its visible text, so voice-control users cannot activate it by saying what they see.
FixMake the accessible name start with the visible label text.
a11y:Keyboard reachability
14 elements look clickable but cannot be reached by keyboard.
FixUse <button>/<a>, or add role + tabindex="0" and a key handler.

measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinionSections — structural bands identified on this funnel, cropped from its own capture
Elements — the atomic pieces — price anchors, ratings, guarantees — with their verbatim on-page text
Playbook match — which funnel play this page runs — measured, evidence-quoted
We ran these passes on the pages we captured and found nothing to show. That is a measurement of this funnel, not a recommendation — and it is a different statement from a layer we never ran, which does not appear here at all.
