aluma.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Improve image delivery
950 ms · 434 KiB7 images could be 434 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 950 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
310 ms · 72 KiBAbout 72 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 310 ms faster on a phone.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and jQuery CDN and others), adding 550 KiB and 300 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
240 KiBAbout 240 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 67 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (67 KiB).
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 82 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
53 KiB53 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
15 KiB15 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 358 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 6.9 s
6.9 sYour largest element takes 6.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.604
0.604The layout shifts by 0.604 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Real-user CLS: 0.11
0.11For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.11 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user TTFB: 907 ms
907 msReal visitors wait 907 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Time to Interactive: 7.3 s
7.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.2 s
4.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
14 images without width and height
14 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 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 69 ms to 65 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.6 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.2 MB in 59 requests
2.2 MBYour homepage downloads 2.2 MB in 59 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (27), scripts 549 KiB (13) and stylesheets 98 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (147 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (147 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.62 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.62 g of CO₂e: 74.6 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
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
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 (14 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 14 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.
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.
Headings should not be empty (2 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor 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).
1 checks passed
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 5 failed. 1 more 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.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, 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.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
76 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 76 pages on aluma.com and 3 external pages.
4 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “At Work For You™”.
Title: 32 characters
Your title is a healthy 32 characters: “At Work For You™ | Aluma Systems”.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://aluma.com/sitemap.xml.
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 (463 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 50 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
1 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Best practices
3 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
24 of 26 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 (aluma.com).
Valid certificate (51 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for aluma.com and is valid for another 51 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
http:// redirects to https
http://aluma.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 43 links work
All 43 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 58 days
aluma.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
No CAA record
aluma.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
aluma.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.
1 checks passed
Domain is 30 years old
30 yearsaluma.com was registered in May 1996 through CSC Corporate Domains, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
Only about 241 words
The homepage has only about 241 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
6 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Talk to Us Now” and “Contact Us”.
2 short forms
2 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 1 email link.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 100/100
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.
3 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject 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 include:beis.com ip4:67.227.169.251 -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
