How this was measured
Measured by Roentgen 1.28.1 on 2026-09-30. 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 15 that apply to an ecommerce funnel. A low count means we did not detect those patterns, not that the funnel is weak.
Walk 235 links on the entry page, 206 walkable. 1 matched a funnel step; we captured 2 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.

Text contrast (WCAG AA)
contrast:74% 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
FixRaise text/background contrast to ≥4.5:1 (≥3:1 for large text), especially on CTAs and body copy.

Line length
17 paragraphs run past ~95 characters per line.
FixCap measure at ~60-75ch for comfortable reading.
type:Link text
2 links use generic text (“click here” / “learn more”).
FixMake link text describe its destination out of context.
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
37 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:Landmark regions
No <main> landmark. screen-reader users cannot jump between regions.
FixWrap the page in <header>, <main> and <footer> (or matching ARIA roles).
structure:Keyboard reachability
5 elements look clickable but cannot be reached by keyboard.
FixUse <button>/<a>, or add role + tabindex="0" and a key handler.
structure:Autocomplete hints
No autocomplete attributes across 3 fields. browsers cannot autofill.
FixAdd autocomplete="email"/"tel"/"name" to identity fields.

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.
