Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Improve image delivery
6.0 s · 1.4 MB6 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68 (desktop: 84). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
140 ms · 13 KiBAbout 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 140 ms faster on a phone.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (GoDaddy and secureserver.net), adding 23 KiB and 49 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
19 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (19 KiB).
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: 0.6 s
A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 169 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.8 s
7.8 sYour largest element takes 7.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We deliver solutions that help Service Providers (SPs) acce…”.
Speed Index: 8.2 s
8.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 7.8 s
7.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-9%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 88 ms to 84 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
Device-Security_Carousal_01-1624x500.png weighs 809 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
4 images far larger than shown
592 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Device-Security_Carousal_01-1624x500.png at 1,624 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 592 KiB.
5 images in older formats
5 images (1.6 MB) 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.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Device-Security_Carousal_01-1624x500.png 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.53 g of CO₂e: 64.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Page weight: 1.9 MB in 44 requests
1.9 MBYour homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 44 requests on a phone: images 1.7 MB (14), scripts 82 KiB (9) and stylesheets 54 KiB (15). That is a lean page.
Accessibility
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.
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.
10 links without text
10 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 14 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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.
Title is short (16 characters)
Your title is only 16 characters: “Home - Actiontec”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
41 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 41 pages on actiontec.com and 3 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://actiontec.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, 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
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://actiontec.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
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 (296 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 pages without a meta description
/products, /broadband, /wi-fi, /device-security, /baba-compliance and /optim-cloud and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 pages without an H1
/products, /broadband, /wi-fi, /device-security, /baba-compliance and /optim-cloud and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
/opensync and /contact-us 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.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
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.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
5 small tap targets
5 of 10 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
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.
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 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 (actiontec.com).
Valid certificate (70 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for actiontec.com and is valid for another 70 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://actiontec.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 21 links work
All 21 links checked from your homepage (18 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
actiontec.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
actiontec.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 31 years old
31 yearsactiontec.com was registered in Aug 1995 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Aug 2031
actiontec.com is registered until Aug 2031.
Content and conversion
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 analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 218 words
The homepage has only about 218 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.
2 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Email authentication
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 mx a ip4:12.206.217.201 ip4:50.145.18.225 a:imail.actiontec.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:shops…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “mail”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening 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.
2 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 2 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).
Upkeep, stack and company
No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.

- WordPress 7.1.3
- Framework
- jQuery
