Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.6 MB
4.6 MBYour homepage downloads 4.6 MB on a phone, 539 KiB of it images (11%). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
BF-Mobile-Creative-1_82d39377-7b83-4788-bcd5-914d060cc9d0.jp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.30 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.30 g of CO₂e: 156.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

Accessibility
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (8 elements)

5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
11 images without alt text
11 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 9 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (70 characters)
Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Australian Anti-Ageing Skincare Trusted by 30,000 Women | Skin Physics”.
Meta description is long (241 characters)
Your meta description is 241 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
84 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 84 pages on skinphysics.com.au and 4 external pages.
6 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Uncommon Science. Unmistakable Skin. — Australian Skincare for Women 40+”.

Structured data in place

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
24%A phone browser shows 3,192 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 758. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
No llms.txt
There is no https://skinphysics.com.au/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
