A file the page asks for never arrives. Whatever it was — hero video, image, script — the visitor sees the gap, not the design.

This text is drawn in exactly the colour of the thing behind it. That is usually a menu measured while it is still hidden, so it is listed for a human to confirm rather than counted as a failure — but if any of it is meant to be on screen, nobody can read it.

Heading order is broken. Screen readers and search engines both use it to work out what the page is about.
