Lighthouse Reports

Varsuite Core runs automated Lighthouse Reports daily on every connected site, offering in-depth insights into performance, usability and SEO health all based on Google’s own auditing engine.

At-a-Glance Scores

At the top of the report, you’ll see four key scores generated during the most recent Lighthouse scan:

Category	Description	Example
Performance	Page speed, render times, paint metrics	87/100
Accessibility	Screen-reader compatibility, semantic structure	92/100
Best Practices	Use of secure code, deprecated APIs, performance risks	61/100
SEO	Meta tags, crawlability, and search readiness	100/100

Each section links to a “View Full Report” button, letting you dive into every detail.

The report timestamp is shown just above the scores, indicating when the test was last performed (e.g. “Report generated 20 hours ago”).

Key Metrics

Below the scorecards, Varsuite displays measurable values such as:

• First Contentful Paint (FCP)

• Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)

• Speed Index

• Total Blocking Time

• Time to Interactive

• Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)

Each metric directly affects Core Web Vitals and overall UX quality, with live figures displayed in milliseconds for absolute precision.

---

Score Trends (Graph View)

Visualise your progress over time with a graph of all four score categories:

• Performance

• Accessibility

• Best Practices

• SEO

This makes it easy to spot regressions after theme/plugin updates or improvements following optimisation work.

---

Metric Trends (Advanced)

Varsuite also tracks the millisecond-level performance of key timing metrics over time:

• FCP

• LCP

• Speed Index

• Total Blocking Time

• Time to Interactive

This lets you see:

• When bottlenecks appear

• How fast each site really is

• The effect of infrastructure or code changes on real load speed

---

Best Practices

• Use the daily audit to catch regressions automatically

• Check score trends before and after major updates

• Investigate metrics for root cause (e.g. slow server, large images, blocking JS)

• Use results to guide developer sprints or client site reviews

---

Alerts + Export Options

• Coming soon: score-based alert rules (e.g. "Alert me if SEO drops below 90")

• Export full report to PDF or CSV for record-keeping or client reporting (future enhancement)
