Speed

8 to fix41
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    25.4 s · 4.6 MB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4.6 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    23.6 s · 4.3 MB

    13 images could be 4.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 23.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.8 s · 353 KiB

    About 353 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 41

    41/100

    Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 83 KiB

    About 83 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Bigcommerce, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 1.4 MB and 384 ms of main-thread time.

  • Bigcommerce adds 175 ms

    175 ms

    Bigcommerce costs a phone 175 ms of main-thread work and 841 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.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 26 KiB

    26 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 94 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 369 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix34
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 32.8 s

    32.8 s

    Your largest element takes 32.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “CALLUM”.

  • Time to Interactive: 32.8 s

    32.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 32.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.815

    0.815

    The layout shifts by 0.815 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Speed Index: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 19 images without width and height

    19 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.

1 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 83 ms

    83 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 83 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 5.9 MB in 49 requests

    5.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.9 MB in 49 requests on a phone: images 4.8 MB (23), scripts 811 KiB (12) and fonts 184 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 4 images over 500 KB

    4 images weigh 2.7 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (1,005 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 4 images far larger than shown

    76 KiB

    4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example used-racecars.png at 1,140 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 76 KiB.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (113 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.

  • About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.69 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.69 g of CO₂e: 202.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 6989
  • 1 button without a name

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

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 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 (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 1 link without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h5, h2 → h4 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 20 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 32 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: 32 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 8566
  • No meta description

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

  • Title is short (22 characters)

    Your title is only 22 characters: “ACE Performance Tuning”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

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

  • 3 links crawlers can't follow

    3 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 41 internal links, 12 external

    The homepage links to 41 pages on aceperformancesystems.com and 12 external pages.

2 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.aceperformancesystems.com/.

  • 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.

Other pages

2 to fix70
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to /brands/Ariel.html, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 13 pages without a meta description

    /used-race-cars, /service1, /aboutus, /contactus, /news and /1960-356-b-t5-roadster-by-drauz and 7 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 21 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 13 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9293
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'PrivacyCookieEnabled')”.

  • 2 low-resolution images

    2 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    7 of 8 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix71
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example http://www.aceperformancesystems.com/brands/Ariel.html (404).

  • 1 broken external link

    1 link to other sites is dead, for example http://twitter.com/aceperformance2 (520).

  • 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 0 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (aceperformancesystems.com).

  • Valid certificate (31 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for aceperformancesystems.com and is valid for another 31 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://aceperformancesystems.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.

Domain and trust

1 to fix
  • Domain expires in 64 days

    aceperformancesystems.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

  • No CAA record

    aceperformancesystems.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

    aceperformancesystems.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.

1 checks passed
  • Domain is 18 years old

    18 years

    aceperformancesystems.com was registered in Jan 2008 through eNom, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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.

  • A 10-field form

    Your longest form asks for 10 fields (4 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • Only about 18 words

    The homepage has only about 18 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Register”, “Contact Us” and “Join Our Community”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 3 testimonial or review blocks and 1 trust badge.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 4 phone links and 1 email link.

Email authentication

2 to fix60
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be aceperformancesystems.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 +a +mx include:_spf.bigcommerce.com include:_spf.google.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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.

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 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.

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
