Four Key Usability Issues

A Site Review Of Gaslamp.org By Doug Render of SiteTechnician.com.

This site has several usability issues. Please find below information describing each of these 4 types of usability problems SiteTechnician can help you identify and correct.

Accessibility This report identifies missing ALT tags. The inclusion of an ALT tag is particularly important for images used as navigational buttons. If these images do not contain ALT tags, web users might be unable to navigate your site! Adding alt tags will provide an alternative text description of your images for disabled users or users with images turned off. Additionally, ALT Tags may increase your rankings on important web crawling search engines.

Slow Pages This analysis identifies pages that load slowly. Research shows that the fastest way to guarantee your web visitors never return is to serve up slow-to-download pages. Studies have consistently shown that customers will start to leave your site after waiting more than 15 seconds for a page to load.

Search Engine Optimization This report indicates the number of pages with and without META Tags. The use of META Tags on all your pages can improve your search engine rank, and the performance of your site’s own search feature.

Broken Links Nothing undermines the credibility of a site like a broken link-one that returns an error message or a blank page. Visitors have very little patience for these types of problems. Studies have shown that 46% of visitors leave a site when they encounter this error.

SiteTechnician can provide a detailed report that will identify which pages contain each of these of problems, and also recommend solutions for resolving each. Your detailed audit also contains 8 reports to help you manage website content: SiteMap, SiteStatistics, Image Catalog, External Link Catalog, Mailto Catalog, New Pages Catalog, Old Pages Catalog, and META Tag Catalog.
