Featherpage Speed Report
See what makes each page heavy on phones, and exactly how to fix it. Media library check and AI alt text for blog images.
Your site already compresses images, sends them in modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and loads them as visitors scroll. Featherpage shows what is left: what each page makes a phone download, and what you can change.
Measure your pages
- Open Featherpage in your site's dashboard. Your site must be published.
- On the Pages tab, click Measure all pages, or Measure next to one page. Each page takes 10 to 35 seconds.
- Click Report to see the page: its grade, what a phone downloads before scrolling (first view) and after scrolling to the bottom (whole page), and where the weight comes from.
- Work through Things to change from the top. Each fix has the exact steps, for example in Settings > Custom code or in the editor.
- Click Measure again after you publish your changes to see the difference.
A measurement counts once our browser has loaded the page, also when the page did not finish loading or redirects to another site. If our browser could not start, it does not count. When many sites measure at the same time, Featherpage waits its turn and starts by itself.
Grades are based on the first-view weight on a phone: A up to 1.5 MB, B up to 2.5 MB, C up to 4 MB, D up to 6 MB, E above. Nothing else changes the grade, so the same page weight always gets the same grade; the weight itself can vary a little between measurements when a page shows changing content or ads. The platform's own code is part of every page; Featherpage shows it separately because you cannot change it.
Times (main content shown, fully loaded) are measured in a data centre on a fast connection, so real phones on mobile networks take longer. For real-visitor speed over time, open Site Speed in your dashboard; for a full lab test, use the Full test in PageSpeed Insights button on a report.
Web-size copies
If a report says an image is sent at full original size (usually because it is linked from custom code or an HTML embed), click Make web-size copy. Featherpage saves a 1920-pixel JPEG copy in your Media Manager, in the folder Featherpage web copies, and shows its address. Replace the old address in your code or embed with the new one. The original stays where it is.
The Media library tab lists your largest images. Large files there do not slow your pages by themselves, because visitors get a resized copy; they matter only when linked directly.
Alt text for blog images
- Open the Blog alt text tab. It lists images in your blog posts that have no alt text.
- Tick the images you want suggestions for and click Suggest with AI, or type your own text.
- Check every text, then click Save. Published posts are updated and republished; posts with unpublished edits are saved as drafts so your own edits are never published by Featherpage.
For images on your pages, select the image in the editor, open Settings and fill in the alt text. Page reports list the images that have none.

Ask the AI assistant
If your dashboard has the AI assistant, you can ask "Which of my pages is heaviest?" or "How do I make my contact page faster?". It answers from your latest Featherpage measurements.
