Excuse me Captain

What Dr Urls found on excusemecaptain.com

From the audit of their public home page on 22/10/2026, worst first. Each links to what it means and how it is fixed.

• high
  Missing landmark elements

  WCAG 1.3.1 requires that page structure is programmatically determinable.

• medium
  Cache-Control header missing

  Proper caching prevents browsers from re-downloading unchanged resources, dramatically improving repeat visit performance.

• medium
  Empty heading tag found

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

• medium
  Missing skip-to-content navigation link

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

• medium
  Text resources not compressed

  Uncompressed text resources unnecessarily increase page load time and bandwidth consumption.

• medium
  Thin content (too few words)

  Google's Helpful Content system explicitly targets thin, low-value pages.

• low
  CSS files are not minified

  Unminified CSS files are larger than necessary, increasing download time and delaying rendering.

• low
  Excessive inline CSS

  Inline CSS cannot be cached separately by the browser, so it is re-downloaded with every page load.

• low
  H1 heading is too short

  Very short H1s like 'Home' or 'Blog' do not give search engines meaningful topical signals.

• low
  Images missing responsive srcset

  Without srcset, a 1200px wide image is downloaded on a 375px wide mobile screen, wasting bandwidth and slowing load times.

• low
  Images not using modern format

  WebP images are 25-35% smaller than equivalent JPEG images, and AVIF offers even greater savings.

• low
  JavaScript files are not minified

  JavaScript is the most expensive resource type per byte because it must be downloaded, parsed, compiled, and executed.
