15/100 Sparse

Scores higher than 7% of 1,391 multi-step funnels we have measured. Among the 157 ecommerce funnels in that group, higher than 19%.

How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.21.0 on 2026-08-10. 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 15 that apply to an ecommerce funnel. Per device: desktop 15 · mobile 15.

Walk 330 links on the entry page, 317 walkable. 2 matched a funnel step; we captured 3 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

6 of 12 measured checks need work1 could not be measured — not counted either way

Body text size

type:body-text-size

Smallest body text is 12px (base ~12px). below the ~16px readable floor.

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

Render-blocking resources

weight:render-blocking-resources

26 stylesheets/scripts in <head> block first paint.

FixDefer non-critical JS (defer/async) and inline only critical CSS.

Oversized images

weight:oversized-images

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

“shoes138082-180815_1534367019693” is 400px wide, displayed at 163px

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

Landmark regions

structure:landmark-regions

No <header> or <main> landmark. screen-reader users cannot jump between regions.

FixWrap the page in <header>, <main> and <footer> (or matching ARIA roles).

Input types

forms:input-types

3 fields use type="text" for email or phone. mobile keyboards will not adapt.

“email-address”, “email-address”, “email-address”

FixUse type="email" / type="tel" so phones show the right keyboard.

Tap-target size (mobile)

mobile:tap-target-size-mobile

158 of 389 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.

smallest: “Target home” at 40×40px

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

Worth knowing2

Line length

9 paragraphs run past ~95 characters per line.

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

type:line-length
Label in name

6 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.

Playbook match — which funnel play this page runs — measured, evidence-quoted

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.
