What is a Website Carbon Audit?
A website carbon audit measures the energy used to load and operate your site, translating it into its carbon footprint. This impact is influenced by factors such as:
- Page size and complexity
- Hosting and server efficiency
- Image, video, and media optimisation
- Code performance and structure
- Caching and content delivery methods
Our audits combine technical performance testing with sustainability best practices to give you a clear picture of your site’s environmental impact and how to improve it.
