Managing URLs

The project page has two tabs: Overview (aggregated results after each scan) and URLs (your URL list, run controls, and settings).

Overview tab

The Overview tab opens by default when you enter a project. It shows aggregated results from the latest completed scan: Health Score, per-platform averages, Core Web Vitals, insights, attention URLs, and a breakdown by page type.

Health Score

A weighted composite score on a 0–100 scale:

CategoryWeight
Performance50 %
SEO25 %
Accessibility15 %
Best Practices10 %

Colour coding: 90–100 good · 50–89 needs attention · 0–49 critical.

Average metrics

Project-wide averages across all checked URLs — separately for Mobile and Desktop: Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, SEO.

Core Web Vitals

Key user experience metrics with Good / Needs Improvement / Poor thresholds:

MetricDescriptionGood threshold
LCPLargest Contentful Paint — main content load time< 2.5 s
CLSCumulative Layout Shift — layout stability< 0.1
FCPFirst Contentful Paint — time to first visible content< 1.8 s
INPInteraction to Next Paint — interaction responsiveness< 200 ms
TTFBTime to First Byte — server response speed< 800 ms

For metrics above their threshold, a context chip appears below the value with an industry benchmark (e.g. "Pages with LCP > 4s see up to 24% higher bounce rates").

Interpretation & Recommendations

Two sections generated automatically after every completed scan — no manual action needed.

Detected Issues — key performance problems, each with:

  • Title — 4–6 word headline summarising the issue
  • Impact — business consequence: effect on traffic, conversions, bounce rate, or SEO
  • Cause — technical root cause: specific metric or Lighthouse audit

Improvement Recommendations — concrete actions to improve, each with:

  • Title — action headline
  • Outcome — expected business result after implementing the fix
  • Action — technical steps with tools and methods

Attention URLs

URLs that need immediate attention from the latest scan:

  • Critical — Performance Score < 50 (all shown)
  • Warning — Performance Score 50–69 (up to 10 shown)

Mobile and desktop scores are shown for each URL. Click any URL to open its detail page.

By Page Type

A summary table comparing performance across your project's page types (e.g. Homepage, PDP, Blog). Rows are sorted worst-to-best by Performance score.

ColumnDescription
Page TypeName, colour label, and status dot (green / yellow / red)
URLsChecked / Total
Perf (mob / dsk)Performance Score — mobile and desktop averages
LCP (mob / dsk)Average LCP — mobile and desktop
CLS (mob / dsk)Average CLS — mobile and desktop
FCP (mob / dsk)Average FCP — mobile and desktop
The By Page Type section is hidden if the project has fewer than two page types.
Overview data always reflects the latest completed scan. If no scan has run yet, the tab shows an empty state.

URLs tab

Switch to the URLs tab to manage your URL list, run checks, and review individual results. You'll see:

  • A header with search and action buttons
  • A check quota indicator (if your plan has a limit)
  • An active scan progress banner (if a check is running)
  • A URL table (desktop) or card list (mobile) with all your URLs

Quota indicator

A progress bar at the top of the page shows your weekly check usage in the format 45 / 1000 used with the remaining count alongside your plan name. The bar turns red when less than 10 % of your quota remains.

Adding URLs

Add a single URL

  1. Click + Add URL in the top-right corner.
  2. Enter the path — the part of the URL after the domain, e.g. /about.
  3. Optionally enter a Label — a human-readable name.
  4. Select platforms: Mobile, Desktop, or both.
  5. Click Add.
If you paste a full URL into the path field, psiLynx automatically strips the domain and keeps only the path.

Import multiple URLs

  1. Click Import.
  2. Choose a format:
FormatStructure
CSVColumn url (required), label (optional)
JSONArray of objects: [{"url": "/page", "label": "Name"}]
Sitemap XMLStandard XML sitemap file
  1. Upload your file (up to 5 MB).
  2. Review the preview — valid and invalid URLs are highlighted.
  3. Uncheck any URLs you want to skip.
  4. Click Import X URLs.
The maximum number of URLs is determined by your plan. When the limit is reached, the Add and Import buttons are disabled.

Running a check

  1. Click Run Check in the top-right corner.
  2. psiLynx automatically checks whether all active URLs are reachable (HTTP probe, up to 5 s per URL):
    • All URLs accessible — the confirmation dialog opens immediately.
    • Some URLs unreachable — an availability modal appears first.
  3. In the availability modal (if shown), each unreachable URL displays its status: HTTP error code, Timeout, or Redirect loop. Click Skip unavailable and start to proceed with accessible URLs only. If all URLs are unreachable, the start button is disabled.
  4. In the confirmation dialog, review: number of active URLs, number of checks (mobile + desktop), quota cost, and remaining quota after the run.
  5. Click Run Check to start.

Accuracy Mode

In Settings (below the action buttons) you can enable Accuracy Mode. Each URL is checked multiple times and the results are averaged for greater reliability — but quota usage multiplies accordingly (e.g. ×3).

Check progress

While a scan is running, a blue banner shows:

  • Current progress: X / Y URLs
  • Elapsed time
  • A Cancel scan button (requires confirmation)

After completion

A result banner replaces the progress bar:

  • Green — "All checks passed" — every URL succeeded
  • Yellow — "Checks completed with errors" — some URLs failed

If there were errors, a Repeat failed button lets you re-run only the problem URLs without consuming quota for the successful ones.

Search and filters

  • Search — by URL or label
  • Platform: All / Mobile / Desktop
  • Score: All / Good / Warning / Critical

Bulk actions

Check the boxes next to the URLs you want (or use the header checkbox to select all). A bulk action bar appears:

ActionResult
ActivateSet selected URLs to Active
PauseSet selected URLs to Paused
Run checkRun a check for selected URLs only
Assign typeAssign a page type to selected URLs
DeleteDelete selected URLs (requires confirmation)

Editing a URL

  1. Click the pencil icon in the URL row.
  2. Edit the label or platforms.
  3. Click Save.
The URL address itself cannot be changed — only the label and platforms.

Pausing and activating URLs

  • Click the pause icon — the URL moves to Paused status and is excluded from future checks.
  • Click the play icon — the URL becomes Active again.
Checks only run against active URLs. If all URLs are paused, Run Check is disabled. Historical results are preserved for paused URLs.

Deleting a URL

  1. Click the trash icon in the URL row.
  2. Confirm the deletion.
Deletion is permanent. All check history for that URL will be lost.
