How accurate is this checklist compared to a professional audit?

This checklist covers the same 200+ points our engineers verify in a professional $149 audit. The difference is that a professional audit includes hands-on server access, in-depth code review, actual performance measurements (not self-assessment), and a prioritized fix plan with estimated effort.

Can I save my progress and come back later?

Yes. Your progress is saved in your browser automatically via localStorage. When you return to the page, your previous answers are restored. Clearing browser data will reset your progress.

How was the scoring system developed?

Weights are based on Google's documented ranking factors, Core Web Vitals research, OWASP security guidelines, WCAG 2.2 standards, and our team's experience across 172+ projects. Critical items (weight 3) have the largest impact on rankings, security, or conversions.

Is this checklist updated regularly?

Yes. We update the checklist when Google announces ranking changes, new security vulnerabilities emerge, or web standards evolve. The current version reflects 2026 best practices including INP as a Core Web Vital and WCAG 2.2 requirements.

What is a good website audit score?

On our weighted scale: A (90%+) is excellent, B (75-89%) is good with room for improvement, C (60-74%) is average with several issues needing attention, D (40-59%) is below average with critical issues, F (below 40%) requires immediate professional attention.

Can I use this checklist for my clients?

Yes. The checklist is free to use for any purpose. If you're an agency, you're welcome to use it as part of your audit process. We only ask that you link back to the original page when sharing.
