What is Lighthouse?
Lighthouse is Google's open-source page-quality engine, the same technology behind PageSpeed Insights and the audits built into Chrome. It loads your page the way a real visitor would, on a throttled connection, and scores what it finds across speed, SEO, accessibility and best practices, each out of 100. When you run a check here, we call that engine against your live page and translate the raw findings into plain English.
Can I audit a competitor's site?
Yes. The check works on any public web page, so you can run it on a competitor to see how you compare, or use our side-by-side compare tool to run both sites through the same audit at once. It only reads what any visitor's browser would see, so pages behind a login cannot be checked.
Do you need my email?
No. The full report appears on screen with no email, no signup and no gate. The only time we ask for an email is if you want the report sent to you, and that is entirely optional. If you do not give us your email, we have no way to contact you, and we will not.
What is in the PDF?
If you ask for the report by email, we send the same results as a branded PDF: your four headline scores, the Core Web Vitals measurements, and the ranked list of findings with the fix we would make for each. It is yours to keep, forward or share with whoever looks after your website.
What happens next?
That is up to you. Many people fix things themselves using the free guides in our resource library. If you would like the work planned and quoted properly, the £300 Marketing & Automation Deep-Dive is the next step: a consultation, a detailed written audit and a fixed quote, with the £300 credited against any work you book. And if you would rather just ask a question, contact us, there is no obligation either way.
