One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

14 to fix36
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.4 s · 12.6 MB

    20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (12.6 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    4.5 s

    14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.5 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 867 KiB

    About 867 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 36

    36/100

    Your mobile performance score is 36 (desktop: 71). 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, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    6.5 MB

    27 images could be 6.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, website-files.com and Hubspot and others), adding 25.7 MB and 2.2 s of main-thread time.

  • website-files.com adds 483 ms

    483 ms

    website-files.com costs a phone 483 ms of main-thread work and 24.0 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    720 ms · 90 KiB

    About 90 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 720 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 548 ms

    548 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 548 ms of main-thread work and 460 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.

  • Hubspot adds 450 ms

    450 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 450 ms of main-thread work and 382 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.

  • Facebook adds 370 ms

    370 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 370 ms of main-thread work and 336 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 271 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Google CDN adds 166 ms

    166 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 166 ms of main-thread work and 354 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

    270 ms · 16 KiB

    16 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    12 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 71 but mobile only 36. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix33
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.0 s

    9.0 s

    Your largest element takes 9.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Delivering Organizational Transformation for Over 50 years,…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.9 s

    18.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.4 s

    5.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 6.2 s

    6.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 202 ms

    202 ms

    Real visitors wait 202 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 23% slower for real visitors

    +23%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 154 ms to 202 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 28 images without width and height

    28 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

5 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 476 ms

    476 ms

    Real visitors wait 476 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 17% faster for real visitors

    -17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.4 s to 3.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 26.1 MB in 123 requests

    26.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 26.1 MB in 123 requests on a phone: media 11.9 MB (2), images 11.7 MB (48) and scripts 1.7 MB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    64c960fbf1cb7a04e714c263_Adizes logoAsset 10-p-500.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).

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (30 KiB) is 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 7.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    7.39 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 7.39 g of CO₂e: 886.3 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

5 to fixGoogle 9194
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (37 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 37 elements on the page fail 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.

  • 5 links without text

    5 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.

  • Headings skip levels

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 58 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 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

8 to fixGoogle 9167
  • Title is short (26 characters)

    Your title is only 26 characters: “Adizes Institute Worldwide”. 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.

  • 17 H1 headlines

    There are 17 <h1> headlines (“Delivering Organizational Transformation for Over…”, “Adizes Executive Program” and “Our Services”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • Meta description is long (192 characters)

    Your meta description is 192 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.adizes.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 11 links with vague text

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

  • 47 internal links, 17 external

    The homepage links to 47 pages on adizes.com and 17 external pages.

1 checks passed
  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 (2,068 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix69
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to /about-us-2, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 2 pages without a meta description

    /testimonials and /privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    /insights and /media-kit use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage 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 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 6983
  • 2 small tap targets

    2 of 8 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 9 distorted images

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

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix79
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://www.adizes.com/about-us-2 (404).

  • 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 (adizes.com).

  • Valid certificate (36 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for adizes.com and is valid for another 36 days.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://adizes.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

  • No CAA record

    adizes.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

    adizes.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 years

    adizes.com was registered in May 1995 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until May 2029

    adizes.com is registered until May 2029.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 955 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 955 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 30 calls to action

    The homepage has 30 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Apply Here” and “Download Program Brochure”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 8 testimonial or review blocks and 30 customer or partner logos.

  • Analytics in place

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be adizes.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • Email authentication score: 70/100

    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:dc-aa8e722993._spfm.adizes.com include:dc-412b9675f1._spfm.adizes.com include:243148939.spf01.hubspotema…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “k2” and “s1”), 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, HubSpot 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.

  • 9 cookies set on arrival

    9

    Opening the homepage sets 9 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.

  • 30 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 30 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
