EcoPing's Daily Website Carbon Report

Everyday EcoPing creates a website carbon report to help improve your website.

Our website carbon report page is updated every day to give everything you need in one place.

We've tried to break up each report into three sections:

  1. Overview - A quick look at how good or bad your website is
  2. Insights - Information about your website and hosting
  3. Actions - Developers tasks to improve your website

The top section of a report page give you a quick over view of your website. It includes:

  • EcoScore: A score out of 100 based on things like carbon intensity and Google Lighthouse scores.

  • CO2 grams: Amount of carbon emissions produces each page view

  • Transferred: Transferred over the network

  • Resources: Resources loaded by the page

  • Load time: 2.5 seconds or less is good

  • Requests: amount of requests made to load your website. 73 is the average.

  • Countries: how many countries your resources come from

  • CO2 intensity: the grid intensities where your resources come from.
