Note that this test can only detect recognised analytics solutions. If an analytics solution is new, obscure or used in a non-standard way (e.g. it has been customised) it may not be detected.

Links

Layout

- Only use tables for tabular data (e.g. a pricing table).
Visual Interest
- 1 pages on this website have a low text-to-image ratio.
