What Dr Urls found on digitalnext.co.uk

From the audit of their public home page on 25/10/2026, worst first. Each links to what it means and how it is fixed.

• high
  Links implemented with JavaScript only

  While Google can execute JavaScript, it does not always follow JavaScript-based navigation.

• high
  Missing landmark elements

  WCAG 1.3.1 requires that page structure is programmatically determinable.

• high
  Slow server response time (TTFB > 3s)

  Page speed is a confirmed Google ranking factor, and TTFB is the foundational component.

• high
  Time to First Byte (TTFB) is slow

  TTFB directly impacts all subsequent loading metrics.

• high
  Too many HTTP requests per page

  Each HTTP request incurs overhead from DNS lookup, TCP connection, TLS handshake, and server processing.

• medium
  Empty heading tag found

  Empty headings waste an opportunity to provide keyword signals and structural context.

• medium
  Excessive DOM size

  A large DOM tree directly impacts Interaction to Next Paint (INP), a Core Web Vital.

• medium
  Form inputs missing autocomplete attribute

  WCAG 1.3.5 requires input purpose to be programmatically determined for inputs collecting user information.

• medium
  Images missing width and height attributes

  Missing image dimensions are the leading cause of Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), a Core Web Vital and ranking factor.

• medium
  Missing skip-to-content navigation link

  WCAG 2.4.1 requires a way to bypass blocks repeated on every page.

• medium
  No :focus-visible styles detected

  WCAG 2.4.7 requires a visible focus indicator for all interactive elements.

• low
  Below-the-fold images not lazy loaded

  Loading all images immediately increases initial page weight and competes with critical resources for bandwidth.
