Speed

5 to fix59
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 s · 305 KiB

    About 305 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Vimeo), adding 14.5 MB and 104 ms of main-thread time.

  • Vimeo adds 104 ms

    104 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 104 ms of main-thread work and 14.5 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 48 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (48 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 23 KiB

    About 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 12 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 59 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 364 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 14.8 MB in 29 requests

    14.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 14.8 MB in 29 requests on a phone: other files 13.7 MB (6), scripts 485 KiB (6) and images 484 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 4.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    4.21 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.21 g of CO₂e: 504.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 1 image in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 37 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 37 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 37 passed and 0 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10088
  • Title is long (66 characters)

    Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “1789 Capital · Funding the Next Chapter of American Exceptionalism”.

  • Meta description is long (164 characters)

    Your meta description is 164 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 28 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 28 pages on 1789capital.io and 0 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Funding the Next Chapter of American Exceptionalism”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://1789capital.io/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://1789capital.io/wp-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://1789capital.io/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.

  • Opted out of AI training for 5 crawlers

    robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.

2 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7791
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 16 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • Only about 104 words

    The homepage has only about 104 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

2 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies, 3 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at 1789capital.io, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
