Fitness customers decide in seconds. This audit walks through the class schedule, pricing, free-trial, and booking items that decide whether they walk in.
Every audit item below traces back to one of these jobs. If the site doesn't make them frictionless, conversion suffers.
These don't show up in a generic Lighthouse audit, but they decide whether a gym or fitness studio site actually converts.
Members and prospects both want to see what's on tonight without digging.
Trial-to-membership is the conversion funnel for fitness. Make the trial impossible to miss.
Hidden pricing pushes price-sensitive prospects to competitors that show it.
Stock gym photos kill conversion — prospects need to see your actual community.
Same-day class booking is mobile-first. A broken mobile booking flow loses the trial.
Every audit also covers the four standard Lighthouse categories — the same ones Google uses to rank pages in mobile search.
Core Web Vitals (LCP, FCP, CLS, TBT). Slow sites lose mobile users in the first 3 seconds.
Meta tags, headings, indexable content, mobile-friendliness. The basics Google needs to rank you locally.
HTTPS, image optimization, no console errors, security headers. The hygiene Google penalizes if missing.
Color contrast, ARIA labels, tap targets. Required for many ADA-sensitive customers and rewarded in ranking.
Pulled from real audits across the niche. Sorted by impact on conversion and ranking.
| Issue | Severity |
|---|---|
| No visible class schedule Prospects can't picture themselves fitting your gym into their week | Critical |
| Hidden pricing Half of prospects bounce immediately; the other half assume it's expensive | Critical |
| Free-trial CTA buried Trial-to-paid is the entire funnel — burying it caps growth | Major |
| Slow mobile load — hero video or 4K photos Local fitness searches are mobile; slow sites get skipped | Major |
| Stock photos only Trust never builds — prospects need to see your actual space and people | Major |
| No address/parking info visible Trial walk-ins get lost; some never make it through the door | Minor |
