  • Product images without descriptive alt text — invisible to Google Image Search
  • No trust badges or security signals near the add-to-cart button

  • Is AggregateRating schema generating correctly per product? (Test with Google Rich Results Test)
  • Is your return policy and satisfaction guarantee visible on product pages?
  • Are ingredient images and how-to-use graphics lazy-loading?
  • Do product descriptions include skin type, concern, and hero ingredient targeting?
  • Are dermatologist tested or cruelty-free claims backed by visible certification logos?
  • Is your mobile checkout flow under 3 steps with large, easy-to-tap buttons?
