ableins.ca does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
6.4 s · 1.8 MB61 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.8 MB).
Reduce unused CSS
4.0 s · 640 KiBAbout 640 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
4.2 s16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.2 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.9 s · 455 KiBAbout 455 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 34
34/100Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
zohocdn.com adds 231 ms
231 mszohocdn.com costs a phone 231 ms of main-thread work and 504 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.
Improve image delivery
200 ms · 148 KiB6 images could be 148 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (zohocdn.com, PageSense and zohopublic.in and others), adding 614 KiB and 283 ms of main-thread time.
Minify CSS
200 ms · 58 KiB58 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Font display
250 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 105 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.5 s
A phone's processor spends 1.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 325 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.9 s
12.9 sYour largest element takes 12.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “happy family with insurance coverage”.
First Contentful Paint: 7.2 s
7.2 sThe first text or image appears after 7.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.776
0.776The layout shifts by 0.776 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Time to Interactive: 12.9 s
12.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.7 s
7.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
45 images without width and height
45 images 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.
2 checks passed
Largest content (LCP) got 13% faster for real visitors
-13%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 55 ms
55 msScripts block the page for only 55 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 95 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 95 requests on a phone: scripts 796 KiB (24), stylesheets 775 KiB (28) and images 675 KiB (35). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
banner-three-main.webp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
4 buttons without a name
4 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
13 text elements with low contrast
13 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (30 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 30 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (4 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (4 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (5 elements).

31 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 39 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 31 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (66 characters)
Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Able Insurance Brokers | Home, Auto & Business Insurance Solutions”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (235 characters)
Your meta description is 235 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
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://www.ableinsurance.ca/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
12 links with vague text
12 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
100 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 100 pages on ableins.ca and 11 external pages.
3 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Insuring Your World, Simplified”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://ableinsurance.ca/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
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 /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
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (643 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

30 of 37 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

Served over HTTPS

Valid certificate (103 days left)
The certificate from Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36 verifies for ableins.ca and is valid for another 103 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https

All 46 links work
All 46 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
ableinsurance.ca 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
ableinsurance.ca'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

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 60/100
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.
