The problem

Most websites don’t

fail loudly.

They don’t crash. They don’t throw an error. They just quietly stop producing enquiries — and nobody notices for eight months, because there’s nothing to notice.

The contact form that stopped emailing anyone. The phone number that isn’t tappable on a mobile. The page that takes six seconds to load on 4G. The plugin that hasn’t been updated since 2023.

None of it looks broken. All of it costs you work.

This checklist covers the twelve things we check first on every site that comes to us — and eleven of them you can check yourself, today, without any technical knowledge.

What’s inside

Twelve checks,

four areas.

Each one tells you what to look for, what “good” looks like with a real benchmark, and what it means if yours doesn’t measure up.

01

Mobile load speed

Test it on pagespeed.web.dev — the mobile score, not desktop.

Is it right for you?

Worth twenty minutes —

or not.
Worth your time if

You’ve a nagging feeling something’s off

Your website is more than three years old · You’re about to spend money on ads and you’re not sure the site will hold up · Enquiries have dropped and you don’t know why · You inherited the site and nobody’s touched it since.

Probably skip it if

Someone’s already on top of it

Your site launched in the last twelve months and is actively maintained · You already have an agency sending monthly reporting that you actually read.

We’d rather you skip it than waste twenty minutes.

Or don’t lift a finger

Would you rather we

just did it?

The checklist is designed for you to run yourself. If you’d rather not, we’ll run all twelve checks on your site and send you the results — free, within one business day, no obligation.

Before you ask

Common

questions.

Everything you need to know before you hand over an email address.

No. Eleven of the twelve checks need nothing but a phone and a browser. The twelfth needs a free Google account.
Free. You’ll get the checklist, then four short emails over the following fortnight with the fixes we see most often. Unsubscribe whenever — the checklist is yours either way.
Only if you ask. If you leave your website address we may email you one observation about it, but that’s the extent of it.
Tell us which ones. Some we’ll talk you through for free because they’re a five-minute job. The rest we’ll quote in plain AUD ex-GST, with no lock-in.
