Speed

13 to fix42
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    10.2 s · 4.4 MB

    215 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4.4 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    4.0 s · 1.2 MB

    About 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    4.0 s

    18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.0 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.8 s · 324 KiB

    About 324 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.3 s · 328 KiB

    2 images could be 328 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.

  • 12,564 HTML elements

    The page has 12,564 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 42

    42/100

    Your mobile performance score is 42 (desktop: 49). 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, Google CDN and Facebook and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 515 ms

    515 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 515 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 537 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    350 ms · 45 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 45 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 283 ms

    283 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 283 ms of main-thread work and 763 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 JavaScript

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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 CSS

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 61 ms

    61 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 61 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix52
  • First Contentful Paint: 7.9 s

    7.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 27.1 s

    27.1 s

    Your largest element takes 27.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Manage Your Workforce With One Solution Learn how Actsoft® …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 32.7 s

    32.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 32.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 14.1 s

    14.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 14.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 524 ms

    524 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 524 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +4%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.2 s to 4.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 6.9 MB in 275 requests

    6.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.9 MB in 275 requests on a phone: images 3.0 MB (116), scripts 2.8 MB (100) and stylesheets 390 KiB (17). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (450 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (120 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.97 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.97 g of CO₂e: 236.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

10 to fixGoogle 8087
  • 977 images without alt text

    977 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 7 tap targets too small

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

  • 4 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • Malformed lists

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

  • Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 7 links without text

    7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 9 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 7790
  • 60 links with vague text

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

  • 9 H1 headlines

    There are 9 <h1> headlines (“Easyto Launch”, “Easyto Use” and “Easyto Customize”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 6 links crawlers can't follow

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

  • No favicon declared

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

  • 158 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 158 pages on actsoft.com and 13 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 121 characters

    Your meta description is 121 characters: “Actsoft provides the most robust and effective field service management software options for workers, fleets, and asset…”.

  • Title: 62 characters

    Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “Actsoft: Leading Provider of Field Service Management Software”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.actsoft.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://www.actsoft.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 (22,374 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 2 pages share a title

    /workforce-management-software and /encore-powered-by-actsoft all use the title “Workforce Management Software: TeamWherx™ by Actsoft”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    /workforce-management-software and /encore-powered-by-actsoft use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 14 pages slow to respond

    /workforce-manager-for-gov, /workforce-management-software, /encore-powered-by-actsoft, /capabilities, /industries/construction and /industries/concrete-and-asphalt-contractors and 8 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 60 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    14 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 14 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 8885
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 12 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://www.socialintents.com/assets/css/si-include-chat.min.css' from origin 'https://www…”.

  • 5 distorted images

    5 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix79
  • 1 broken external link

    1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://recruiting.paylocity.com/Recruiting/Jobs/All/db861ea2-4322-45b9-9d08-e9fc338dca9f/ACTSOFT-INC (404).

  • 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.

  • security.txt has expired

    Your security.txt expired on 2025-02-01, so researchers may not trust its contact details.

  • No Permissions-Policy

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

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (52 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for actsoft.com and is valid for another 52 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://actsoft.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

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

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    actsoft.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 29 years old

    29 years

    actsoft.com was registered in Nov 1996 through NameSilo, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • DNSSEC is on

    actsoft.com's DNS answers are signed (DNSSEC), so they can't be forged on the way to visitors.

  • Registered until Feb 2032

    actsoft.com is registered until Feb 2032.

Content and conversion

1 to fix93
  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 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 582 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 582 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Start For Free”.

  • 23 calls to action

    The homepage has 23 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Start For Free” and “Learn More”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 257 customer or partner logos and “8,000+ customers”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.

  • Direct contact links

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Email authentication

100
  • Email authentication score: 100/100

    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: reject

    DMARC tells receivers to reject 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.protection.outlook.com mx:actsoft.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

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

  • 16 cookies set on arrival

    16

    Opening the homepage sets 16 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.

  • 28 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 28 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
