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
Render-blocking requests
3.4 s21 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.4 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.5 s · 532 KiB47 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (532 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 344 KiBAbout 344 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.
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your 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 · 87 KiBAbout 87 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.
Improve image delivery
396 KiB4 images could be 396 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 356 ms
356 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 356 ms of main-thread work and 356 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: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, tickertech.com and Google Fonts and others), adding 520 KiB and 425 ms of main-thread time.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 219 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.

Server response: 30 ms
30 msYour server sent the HTML in 30 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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.
Real-user CLS: 0.30
0.30For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.30 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest Contentful Paint: 9.8 s
9.8 sYour largest element takes 9.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
First Contentful Paint: 5.6 s
5.6 sThe first text or image appears after 5.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.5 s
7.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 10.0 s
10.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.27
0.27The layout shifts by 0.27 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+4%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 80 ms to 82 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Total Blocking Time: 197 ms
197 msScripts block the page for only 197 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
3 images in older formats
3 images (359 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.46 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.46 g of CO₂e: 55.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.6 MB in 59 requests
1.6 MBYour homepage downloads 1.6 MB in 59 requests on a phone: scripts 810 KiB (23), images 566 KiB (12) and fonts 142 KiB (4). That is a lean page.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
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.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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 (h2 → h5, h2 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
39 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 6 failed. 4 mores 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.
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “Aimia - Aimia”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
36 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 36 pages on aimia.com and 10 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Welcome”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.aimia.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
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.aimia.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 (229 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
/aim-rule-26 is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
14 pages without a meta description
/about-us, /management-team, /company-strategy, /governance, /groupcompanies and /investor-relations and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
11 pages without an H1
/management-team, /governance, /investor-relations, /investor-relations/events-presentations, /investor-relations/financial-reports and /investor-relations/sedar-filings and 5 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
4 pages with very little text
/about-us, /company-strategy, /investor-relations/sedar-filings and /contact 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.
4 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.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
20 small tap targets
20 of 27 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
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 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 (aimia.com).
Valid certificate (43 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for aimia.com and is valid for another 43 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://aimia.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 32 links work
All 32 links checked from your homepage (26 internal, 6 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
aimia.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
aimia.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 17 years old
17 yearsaimia.com was registered in Apr 2009 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Apr 2034
aimia.com is registered until Apr 2034.
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.
Only about 190 words
The homepage has only about 190 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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.
3 checks passed
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Aimia Q3 Investor Call” and “Aimia Q2 Investor Call”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.
Email authentication
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: 85/100
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
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com a:spf.aimia.com include:us._netblocks.mimecast.com ~all”.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
5 cookies set on arrival
5Opening the homepage sets 5 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.
5 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
