Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Font display
3.0 sWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 3.0 s).
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Improve image delivery
8.7 MB8 images could be 8.7 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54 (desktop: 67). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Adobe TypeKit and Google Analytics), adding 248 KiB and 226 ms of main-thread time.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 141 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
113 KiBAbout 113 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 494 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 189 ms
189 msYour server sent the HTML in 189 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 14.6 s
14.6 sThe first text or image appears after 14.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.6 s
14.6 sYour largest element takes 14.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Scalable and Repeatable IT Solutions and Services for Busin…”.
Speed Index: 14.6 s
14.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 14.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 16.5 s
16.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
5 images without width and height
5 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
Total Blocking Time: 137 ms
137 msScripts block the page for only 137 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.008
0.008The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.008, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 13.7 MB in 35 requests
13.7 MBYour homepage downloads 13.7 MB in 35 requests on a phone: images 10.9 MB (14), HTML 2.4 MB (1) and scripts 292 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
Accucode-Service-Video-Thumbnail.png weighs 725 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
209 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Accucode-Service-Video-Thumbnail.png at 1,319 px wide, shown at 371 px. Resized copies would save about 209 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (128 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.9 g of CO₂ per visit
3.88 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.88 g of CO₂e: 465.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (27 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 27 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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 6 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 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 8 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
42 internal links, 1 external
The homepage links to 42 pages on accucode.com and 1 external page.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 126 characters
Your meta description is 126 characters: “We custom design, acquire, install, manage, and support a wide variety of technologies so you can focus on your core bu…”.
Title: 65 characters
Your title is a healthy 65 characters: “Accucode | Award-winning technology solutions, services & support”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://accucode.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, 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
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://accucode.com/sitemap_index.xml.
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.
Some text only appears after JavaScript runs
42%The HTML your server sends has 419 of the 1,004 words a browser shows. AI crawlers don't run JavaScript, so they miss the rest.
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.
Other pages
13 pages without a meta description
/products, /products/networking, /products/rfid, /products/mobile-computing, /services and /services/depot and 7 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
13 pages without an H1
/products, /products/networking, /products/rfid, /products/mobile-computing, /services and /services/depot and 7 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
13 pages with very little text
/products, /products/networking, /products/rfid, /products/mobile-computing, /services and /services/depot and 7 others have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
2 pages slow to respond
/products/rfid and /products/mobile-computing took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 20 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 low-resolution images
2 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
1 checks passed

The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
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.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
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.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (accucode.com).
Valid certificate (69 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for accucode.com and is valid for another 69 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://accucode.com 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.
All 22 links work
All 22 links checked from your homepage (21 internal, 1 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
accucode.com 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
accucode.com'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 28 years old

Registered until Jan 2027

Content and conversion
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.
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.
About 1,004 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,004 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

5 calls to action

Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
accucode.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.
Email authentication score: 45/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:aspmx.pardot.com include:spf.mindmatrix.net ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
