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

Live view · interaction off

Speed

11 to fix39
  • Render-blocking requests

    5.1 s

    44 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.1 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.1 s · 611 KiB

    About 611 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.4 s · 290 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (290 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 39

    39/100

    Your mobile performance score is 39. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    900 ms · 179 KiB

    About 179 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and userway.org and others), adding 992 KiB and 792 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 460 ms

    460 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 460 ms of main-thread work and 526 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

    300 ms · 34 KiB

    34 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Hubspot adds 292 ms

    292 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 292 ms of main-thread work and 314 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: 2.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 2,095 HTML elements

    The page has 2,095 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 189 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    24 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Improve image delivery

    8 KiB

    1 image could be 8 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 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: 23 ms

    23 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • 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: 1.00

    1.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 1.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 7.3 s

    7.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.3 s

    7.3 s

    Your largest element takes 7.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies on our website to give you the most relevant…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 15.2 s

    15.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.0 s

    9.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.319

    0.319

    The layout shifts by 0.319 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 6 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 129 ms to 121 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

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

  • Real-user INP: 128 ms

    128 ms

    Real visitors wait 128 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user TTFB: 788 ms

    788 ms

    Real visitors wait 788 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 43% faster for real visitors

    -43%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.3 s to 3.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 188 ms

    188 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 188 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.6 MB in 110 requests

    3.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 110 requests on a phone: images 1.6 MB (20), scripts 1.3 MB (38) and fonts 464 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.03 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.03 g of CO₂e: 123.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 9396
  • 23 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (30 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 30 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 23 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8591
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Airedale by Modine” and “Airedale by Modine”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 252 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 252 pages on airedale.com and 13 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 141 characters

    Your meta description is 141 characters: “Airedale by Modine are a global manufacturer of intelligent cooling systems that help deliver sophisticated and innovat…”.

  • Title: 52 characters

    Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “Airedale by Modine - The Critical Cooling Specialist”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.airedale.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, 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.airedale.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, 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 (1,741 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 94 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 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.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    17 of 20 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • 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 (airedale.com).

  • Valid certificate (43 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for airedale.com and is valid for another 43 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://airedale.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 51 links work

    All 51 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 11 external) answered without errors; 6 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    airedale.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 26 years old

    26 years

    airedale.com was registered in Aug 2000 through Cloudflare, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • DNSSEC is on

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

  • Registered until Aug 2030

    airedale.com is registered until Aug 2030.

Content and conversion

4 to fix75
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • 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 571 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 571 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “DOWNLOAD OUR SOLUTIONS GUIDE”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Contact Us” and “DOWNLOAD OUR SOLUTIONS GUIDE”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Hotjar, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight.

Email authentication

1 to fix85
  • SPF does not block other senders (no all)

    Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=8212194b._1.usb.2._d.mim.ec”.

  • 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.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and HubSpot (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 24 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 24 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

    A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.
