Images 79/100

✓

All 25 images have an alt attribute

Alt text describes images to Google and screen readers.

i

3 images have empty alt=""

Empty alt is correct for purely decorative images, but not for product photos, diagrams, etc.

!

25 images lack width/height attributes

Missing dimensions cause layout shift (CLS), a Core Web Vitals metric.

Set width and height attributes on <img> tags.

!

No images are lazy-loaded

Lazy-loading below-the-fold images speeds up the initial load.

Add loading="lazy" to images below the fold (not the main hero image).

!

No modern image formats (WebP/AVIF)

25 JPG/PNG/GIF images found. Modern formats are 25–50% smaller.

Serve WebP or AVIF versions (most image/cache plugins or CDNs do this automatically).
