How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.27.0 on 2026-09-17. 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 10 that apply to an affiliate funnel. A low count means we did not detect those patterns, not that the funnel is weak.

Against all 1,781 multi-step funnels, more conversion tactics than 34% of them.

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.

Body text size

Smallest sampled text is 10px, below the 13px floor this check uses.

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

Body line-height is 1×, tight enough to hurt readability.

Line length

42 paragraphs run past ~95 characters per line.

FixCap measure at ~60-75ch for comfortable reading.

type:line-length
Heading levels

1 heading skips 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.

Label in name

3 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.

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

A match means this funnel's measurable surfaces fit the playbook's pattern — the quoted language is what fired the detection. A lever is one playbook mechanism observed on-page. We never claim what a brand's ads or emails do; a crawl can't see them. All funnel designs →

Two different things sit side by side here. The claim and its quoted evidence are measured on this funnel, the same way every other fact on this page is. The playbook itself is written guidance — our strategy library, not a measurement of this site — and it lives behind the links above. Nothing on this page recommends what this brand should do.
