20/100 Sparse

Scores above 9% of 1,252 multi-step funnels we have measured. Among the 151 ecommerce funnels in that group, above 33%.

How this was measured

Coverage is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 15 that apply to an ecommerce funnel.

Measured by Roentgen 1.21.0, one of our versioned rulesets. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.

Walk 235 links seen, 205 walkable, 1 matched, and we walked 2 pages.

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 · 5 flagged

contrast, mobile, typography, accessibility, weight — each with what would fix it

measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinion

Readability & contrast1 flagged

Text contrast (WCAG AA) needs workcontrast:text-contrast-wcag-aa

76% of measurable text passes WCAG AA. 4+ runs fail.

worst: “Why Cruising is the Best Way to” at 1:1 (27px, #ffffff on #ffffff). needs 3:1

fix Raise text/background contrast to ≥4.5:1 (≥3:1 for large text), especially on CTAs and body copy.

Mobile & tap targetsclear

Mobile viewport passesmobile:mobile-viewport

Responsive viewport meta is present.

Typography1 flagged

Body text size needs worktype:body-text-size

Smallest body text is 10px (base ~16px). below the ~16px readable floor.

fix Keep body copy ≥15-16px; reserve sub-13px for fine print only.

Line length notetype:line-length

17 paragraphs run past ~95 characters per line.

fix Cap measure at ~60-75ch for comfortable reading.

Accessibility hygiene1 flagged

Language declared needs worka11y:language-declared

No html[lang] attribute. screen readers can’t pick the right voice.

fix Add lang="en" (or the page’s language) to <html>.

Image alt text passesa11y:image-alt-text

All 156 content images carry alt text.

Heading levels notea11y:heading-levels

1 heading skips a level (e.g. <h2> followed by <h4>). Screen-reader users navigate by this outline.

fix Step heading levels one at a time; use CSS for size, not a deeper level.

Label in name notea11y:label-in-name

43 controls have an aria-label that does not contain its visible text, so voice-control users cannot activate it by saying what they see.

fix Make the accessible name start with the visible label text.

Weight & delivery2 flagged

Render-blocking resources needs workweight:render-blocking-resources

36 stylesheets/scripts in <head> block first paint.

fix Defer non-critical JS (defer/async) and inline only critical CSS.

Oversized images needs workweight:oversized-images

26 images are shipped at more than 2x the width shown.

“2025-best-cruise-line-overall-stack-whit” is 1280px wide, displayed at 253px

fix Serve responsive sizes (srcset/sizes) matching the rendered width.

Structure & reachabilityclear

Landmark regions notestructure:landmark-regions

No <main> landmark. screen-reader users cannot jump between regions.

fix Wrap the page in <header>, <main> and <footer> (or matching ARIA roles).

Keyboard reachability notestructure:keyboard-reachability

5 elements look clickable but cannot be reached by keyboard.

“Summer Vacation”, “Icon Class”, “Weekend Cruises”

fix Use <button>/<a>, or add role + tabindex="0" and a key handler.

Form usabilityclear

Autocomplete hints noteforms:autocomplete-hints

No autocomplete attributes across 3 fields. browsers cannot autofill.

fix Add autocomplete="email"/"tel"/"name" to identity fields.
