Speed

12 to fix31
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    33.0 s · 6.9 MB

    69 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6.9 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    7.3 s

    40 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 7.3 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.3 s · 988 KiB

    About 988 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Avoid multiple page redirects

    1.5 s

    The page goes through 2 redirects before it starts loading, costing about 1.5 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.1 s · 226 KiB

    7 images could be 226 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 1.2 s of main-thread work and 976 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Mobile performance score: 31

    31/100

    Your mobile performance score is 31. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, cloudfront.net and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 2.5 MB and 2.4 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 158 KiB

    About 158 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • cloudfront.net adds 453 ms

    453 ms

    cloudfront.net costs a phone 453 ms of main-thread work and 951 KiB 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.

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 351 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    200 ms · 53 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 53 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.

  • Document request latency

    200 ms

    The HTML itself could arrive about 200 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    17 KiB

    17 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Minify CSS

    10 ms · 4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 49 ms

    49 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 49 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix50
  • 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 4.5 s

    4.5 s

    Real visitors wait 4.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 3.6 s

    3.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 3.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 7.8 s

    7.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 44.7 s

    44.7 s

    Your largest element takes 44.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “This website stores cookies on your computer. These cookies…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 44.8 s

    44.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 44.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.6 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 7.8 s

    7.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 4 images without width and height

    4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

2 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix33
  • Page weight: 9.0 MB in 157 requests

    9.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 9.0 MB in 157 requests on a phone: images 6.1 MB (19), scripts 2.3 MB (73) and stylesheets 212 KiB (22). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.54 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.54 g of CO₂e: 305.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 7462
  • [role]s are not contained by their required parent element

    [role]s are not contained by their required parent element (9 elements).

  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 98 text elements with low contrast

    98 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

1 checks passed
  • 5 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 7 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 5 passed and 2 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

10 to fixGoogle 8347
  • No page title

    Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.

  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • 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://aaps.org/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • 8 links with vague text

    8 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

1 checks passed
  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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 /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.

1 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.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 7360
  • No mobile viewport

    No viewport meta tag, so phones render the desktop layout zoomed out.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • No HTML doctype

    The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.

  • No character set

    No character set is declared, so some characters can render as gibberish.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Content security policy”).

1 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

Security and trust

1 to fix90
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 126 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (aaps.org).

  • Valid certificate (49 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for aaps.org and is valid for another 49 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://aaps.org redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    aaps.org has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    aaps.org's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 31 years old

    31 years

    aaps.org was registered in Mar 1995 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Mar 2027

    aaps.org is registered until Mar 2027.

Content and conversion

5 to fix33
  • 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 calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • 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 0 words

    The homepage has only about 0 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.

1 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf-us.ppe-hosted.com include:_spf1.aaps.org include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:mail2.netronixc…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 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).
