Latest SEO audit analysis I did on #Microboards, discussing content, UI/UX usability issues, Web Presence Optimization, and good practice guidelines.

2- 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠:
Lighthouse mobile:
76/100 Performance – 97/100 Accessibility – 77/100 Best Practices – 64/100 SEO
GTMetrix desktop:
Largest Contentful Paint 1.2s – Total Blocking Time 0ms – Cumulative Layout Shift 0.1
3 – 𝐏𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭:
Total Page Size – 797KB. Although the homepage is lite and contains a low amount of requests it does load fast, but the site is using low resolution small images and the main structure is not responsive. It would be recommended to redesign the site for mobile indexing. As such, reorder the menu by importance and streamline the header and footer with a clear hero section and main products categories.
