35/100 Sparse

Scores higher than 25% of 1,391 multi-step funnels we have measured. Among the 80 affiliate funnels in that group, higher than 27%.

How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.21 on 2026-08-09. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.

Coverage is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 10 that apply to an affiliate funnel. Per device: desktop 35 · mobile 35.

Walk 180 links on the entry page, 156 walkable. 1 matched a funnel step; we captured 2 pages in all, this one included.

Absence is a measurement, not a recommendation: we do not know why a tactic is missing, whether it belongs here, or whether adding it would change anything. Where a walk stopped early, a tactic living deeper would also read as not detected.

contrast, mobile, typography, accessibility, weight — each with what would fix it

measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinion

5 of 14 measured checks need work

Text contrast (WCAG AA)

contrast:text-contrast-wcag-aa

81% of measurable text passes WCAG AA. 4+ runs fail.

worst: “Privacy” at 2.34:1 (10px, #555555 on #1a1a18). needs 4.5:1

FixRaise text/background contrast to ≥4.5:1 (≥3:1 for large text), especially on CTAs and body copy.

Body text size

type:body-text-size

Smallest body text is 10px (base ~11px). below the ~16px readable floor.

FixKeep body copy ≥15-16px; reserve sub-13px for fine print only.

Page weight

weight:page-weight

At least 35.1 MB across 75 measurable resources. 14 cross-origin resources did not expose a size, so the real total is higher.

FixCompress and lazy-load below-the-fold media; drop unused third-party scripts.

Oversized images

weight:oversized-images

38 images are shipped at more than 2x the width shown.

“kansai-region-seasonal-landscape-cherry-” is 640px wide, displayed at 290px

FixServe responsive sizes (srcset/sizes) matching the rendered width.

Tap-target size (mobile)

mobile:tap-target-size-mobile

89 of 150 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.

smallest: “Menu” at 32×32px

FixGive tappable controls a ≥44×44px hit area. the touch minimum.

Worth knowing4

Line length

8 paragraphs run past ~95 characters per line.

FixCap measure at ~60-75ch for comfortable reading.

type:line-length
Label in name

4 controls have an aria-label that does not contain its visible text, so voice-control users cannot activate it by saying what they see.

FixMake the accessible name start with the visible label text.

Autocomplete hints

No autocomplete attributes across 2 fields. browsers cannot autofill.

FixAdd autocomplete="email"/"tel"/"name" to identity fields.

Page matches the Bridge Funnel’s listicle pattern — ranked recommendations with disclosure/outbound offers

Ranked "best of" list home: ranked listAffiliate disclosure home: disclosure present

A match means this funnel's measurable surfaces fit the playbook's pattern — the quoted language is what fired the detection. A lever is one playbook mechanism observed on-page. We never claim what a brand's ads or emails do; a crawl can't see them. All funnel designs →

Two different things sit side by side here. The claim and its quoted evidence are measured on this funnel, the same way every other fact on this page is. The playbook itself is written guidance — our strategy library, not a measurement of this site — and it lives behind the links above. Nothing on this page recommends what this brand should do.

Elements — the atomic pieces — price anchors, ratings, guarantees — with their verbatim on-page text

We ran this pass on the pages we captured and found nothing to show. That is a measurement of this funnel, not a recommendation — and it is a different statement from a layer we never ran, which does not appear here at all.
