Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.3 s · 724 KiBAbout 724 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your mobile performance score is 47. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 15.4 MB34 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (15.4 MB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Google Tag Manager and Hubspot and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
803 KiB3 images could be 803 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
YouTube adds 619 ms
619 msYouTube costs a phone 619 ms of main-thread work and 990 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.
Reduce unused CSS
430 ms · 153 KiBAbout 153 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 430 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 399 ms
399 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 399 ms of main-thread work and 318 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.
Main-thread work: 3.6 s
A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
14 long tasks on the main thread
14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 282 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
32 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 32 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 16.9 MB in 64 requests
16.9 MBYour homepage downloads 16.9 MB in 64 requests on a phone: media 11.2 MB (1), images 3.7 MB (16) and scripts 1.4 MB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 2.6 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (1.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
3 images in older formats
3 images (96 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 4.8 g of CO₂ per visit
4.79 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.79 g of CO₂e: 574.5 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
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
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.
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious 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. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 23 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 3 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

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 (645 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Best practices
5 third-party cookies
5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
1 JavaScript error while loading

Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
9 of 9 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
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 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.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (adelbrook.org).
Valid certificate (54 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR2 verifies for adelbrook.org and is valid for another 54 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
http:// redirects to https
http://adelbrook.org redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2

All 38 links work
All 38 links checked from your homepage (33 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
adelbrook.org 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

Registered until Jan 2028
adelbrook.org is registered until Jan 2028.
Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data

No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

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 ip4:50.230.95.34 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:48135006.spf03.hubspotemail.net -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “mandrill”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
