Why bother

Most practitioners fixed it after one letter.

Minutes 0 to 10

Search your site, and skip the reading.

The ad rules cover 5 things, including misleading claims and testimonials. Use the find box for "free", "guarantee", "pain", "best" and a quote mark.

Who the law protects

The printer's defence does not cover you.

The law protects a person who "prints or publishes an advertisement for another person". That is your agency. Your practice has no matching defence.

Minutes 10 to 20

The passing marks

Aim for 2.5 seconds, 200ms and 0.1.

Your main content should load within 2.5 seconds. Taps should respond in 200 milliseconds or less. Layout shift should be 0.1 or less. No data means no grade yet.

Minutes 20 to 30

Ask Google's own questions.

"Does the content provide original information, reporting, research, or analysis?" "Are you mainly summarizing what others have to say without adding much value?" Ask them of your busiest page.

What 30 minutes misses

A clean pass leaves some things unknown.

It misses a month of speed data and the pages you skipped. It also misses ads off your site, which the rules cover. It finds only faults you can see.
