HIA Web Design

What Dr Urls found on hiawebdesign.co.uk

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
  Insufficient color contrast ratio

  Low contrast text is difficult or impossible to read for users with low vision, color blindness, or in bright ambient lighting.

• 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.

• medium
  Duplicate ID attributes found

  Duplicate IDs cause label elements, aria-labelledby, aria-describedby, and fragment link targets to associate with the wrong element.

• medium
  Link has empty anchor text

  Anchor text is one of the strongest signals search engines use to understand the content of the linked page.

• medium
  Open Graph og:image tag missing

  Social media posts with images receive significantly more engagement than text-only posts.

• medium
  Render-blocking CSS or JavaScript

  Render-blocking resources directly impact First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), both Core Web Vitals metrics.

• medium
  Scripts without async or defer

  Synchronous scripts halt HTML parsing while the browser downloads and executes them.

• medium
  Too many external CSS stylesheets

  Multiple CSS files multiply HTTP requests and increase the total blocking time before the page can render.

• low
  Broken heading hierarchy

  Heading hierarchy provides a semantic outline of the page content.

• low
  ETag header missing on resources

  Without ETags, browsers cannot efficiently validate whether cached resources have changed.
