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
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.7 s · 1.5 MB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).
Font display
3.0 sWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 3.0 s).
Render-blocking requests
2.6 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.6 s.
Improve image delivery
1.4 s · 332 KiB6 images could be 332 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37 (desktop: 46). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 470 KiBAbout 470 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.0 MB and 810 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 138 KiBAbout 138 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Google CDN adds 547 ms
547 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 547 ms of main-thread work and 764 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: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 190 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Document request latency
24 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
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: 212 ms
212 msYour server sent the HTML in 212 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 LCP: 4.7 s
4.7 sReal visitors wait 4.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.32
0.32For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.32 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user FCP: 3.5 s
3.5 sReal visitors see the first content after 3.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 2.1 s
2.1 sReal visitors wait 2.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 9.5 s
9.5 sYour largest element takes 9.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “CORPORATE”.
Speed Index: 16.1 s
16.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 16.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 16.5 s
16.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.6 s
3.6 sThe first text or image appears after 3.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.283
0.283The layout shifts by 0.283 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Total Blocking Time: 305 ms
305 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 305 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+3%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 128 ms to 130 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
2 checks passed
Real-user INP: 178 ms
178 msReal visitors wait 178 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Largest content (LCP) got 11% faster for real visitors
-11%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 2.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 48 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 48 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (14), scripts 1.1 MB (16) and other files 353 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.86 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 103.7 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 images without alt text
3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
6 links without text
6 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 should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h3 → h5 and h1 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
27 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 33 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 27 passed and 6 failed. 2 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.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“About Us” and “Join Alkaram”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
96 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 96 pages on alkaram.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
Title: 56 characters
Your title is a healthy 56 characters: “Alkaram Textile Mills - Creating designs that bring life”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://alkaram.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Article, Organization, Person, 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://alkaram.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (1 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, logo, 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 https://alkaram.com/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 (437 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
14 pages without a meta description
https://alkaram.com/who-we-are, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/capabilities-divisions, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/products, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/strengths and https://alkaram.com/sustainability and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
14 pages without an H1
https://alkaram.com/investments, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/capabilities-divisions, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/products, https://alkaram.com/what-we-offer/strengths and https://alkaram.com/sustainability and 8 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
https://alkaram.com/sustainability and https://alkaram.com/csr 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

5 checks passed

Best practices
2 broken images
2 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://alkaram.com/images/Home/contact-logo.png.
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.
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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 192 words
The homepage has only about 192 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
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “CONTACT”, “Shop @ Alkaram Studio” and “LEARN MORE”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 1 email link.
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.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 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.
10 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at alkaram.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
