How FlashAudit works
Everything you need to understand the audit process, interpret your results, and take action.
The five-step process
A URL goes in. A clear action plan comes out.
Enter your URL
Tell us which website you want to audit.
We scan your live pages
Checks run across performance, SEO, content, trust, conversion, and more.
We score each area
Scores use clear labels — Strong, Needs Work, Critical — not just numbers.
You get a prioritised fix list
Each issue has a plain-English explanation so you know exactly what to do.
Improve and re-run
Make changes and re-run the audit to track your progress over time.
How to read your report
A quick guide to interpreting your audit results.
Scores and colours
Green = good, yellow = needs attention, red = critical. The dashboard uses these to show at a glance where your site stands.
Severity levels
Critical (fix immediately), Warning (fix soon), Nice-to-have (improve when you can). Issues are listed in this order.
The dashboard
Your overall score, phase-by-phase breakdown, and priority recommendations — all in one place. See a sample report.
Understanding scores and severity
Each audit gives you two ways to prioritise: colour-coded scores and severity labels.
Score ranges
- Green (80–100)
Your site performs well here. Keep it up.
- Yellow (60–79)
Room for improvement. Worth fixing soon.
- Red (0–59)
Critical issues holding your site back.
Severity levels
- Critical
Fix immediately. Major impact on experience or visibility.
- Warning
Fix soon. Important but not urgent.
- Nice-to-have
Optimise when you can. Low urgency.
What to do after an audit
You don't have to fix everything at once. Even a handful of Critical fixes makes a noticeable difference.
Fix Critical issues on important pages first
These have the biggest impact on user experience and search visibility.
Batch similar fixes for your developer
Group changes by type — e.g. all image optimisations — to save time and reduce back-and-forth.
Re-run the audit and compare scores
Make changes and re-run the audit to track your progress.
