Speed
Improve image delivery
3.6 MB15 images could be 3.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (wiserreview.com and ip-api.com), adding 3.2 MB and 56 ms of main-thread time.
wiserreview.com adds 56 ms
56 mswiserreview.com costs a phone 56 ms of main-thread work and 3.2 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
368 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (368 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
350 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 350 ms.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 112 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
28 KiBAbout 28 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
14 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
12 KiBAbout 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Mobile performance score: 96
96/100Your mobile performance score is 96. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).
Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 304 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 44 ms
44 msYour server sent the HTML in 44 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 5.2 s
5.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 4.9 s
4.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
4 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s
0.9 sThe first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Largest Contentful Paint: 0.9 s
0.9 sYour largest element renders in 0.9 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Global UX Design Agency”.
Total Blocking Time: 34 ms
34 msScripts block the page for only 34 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.2 MB in 63 requests
4.2 MBYour homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 63 requests on a phone: images 3.8 MB (37), scripts 207 KiB (9) and fonts 83 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
upmetrics-cover.png weighs 507 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
2 images in older formats
2 images (607 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (527 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
97 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example user_6953a34ad1e61348bdc1a5fe.jpeg at 800 px wide, shown at 50 px. Resized copies would save about 97 KiB.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.18 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.18 g of CO₂e: 141.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 49 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://16pixel.design/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at 16pixel.design/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
16 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 16 pages on 16pixel.design and 4 external pages.
3 checks passed
Meta description: 110 characters
Your meta description is 110 characters: “16pixel is a global UX and web design agency. Helping brands redefine experiences and empower business growth.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Global UX Design Agency”.
Title: 33 characters
Your title is a healthy 33 characters: “16pixel — Global UX Design Agency”.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://16pixel.design/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (880 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
https://16pixel.design/portfolio/world-11 is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
4 pages share a title
/, https://16pixel.design/portfolio, https://16pixel.design/blog and https://16pixel.design/portfolio/world-11 all use the title “16pixel — Global UX Design Agency”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
3 pages share a meta description
https://16pixel.design/portfolio, https://16pixel.design/blog and https://16pixel.design/portfolio/world-11 use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
5 pages without an H1
https://16pixel.design/portfolio/upmetrics, https://16pixel.design/portfolio/breakthrough, https://16pixel.design/portfolio/world11, https://16pixel.design/portfolio/brunos-barbers and https://16pixel.design/portfolio/world-11 have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
