Speed

14 to fix40
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.4 s · 696 KiB

    About 696 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.4 s · 596 KiB

    12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (596 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.4 s · 269 KiB

    1 image could be 269 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: 40

    40/100

    Your mobile performance score is 40 (desktop: 63). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Squarespace, Cookiebot and Hubspot and others), adding 2.4 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.

  • Squarespace adds 869 ms

    869 ms

    Squarespace costs a phone 869 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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

    460 ms · 178 KiB

    About 178 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 460 ms faster on a phone.

  • Cookiebot adds 499 ms

    499 ms

    Cookiebot costs a phone 499 ms of main-thread work and 147 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    350 ms · 110 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 110 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Hubspot adds 324 ms

    324 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 324 ms of main-thread work and 475 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.

  • 2,038 HTML elements

    The page has 2,038 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • squarespace-cdn.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    squarespace-cdn.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 480 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 249 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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: 40 ms

    40 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 40 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix46
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.7 s

    13.7 s

    Your largest element takes 13.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide s…”.

  • Speed Index: 11.2 s

    11.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 16.8 s

    16.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 744 ms

    744 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 744 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.059

    0.059

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.059, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 100 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 100 requests on a phone: scripts 1.9 MB (55), images 430 KiB (21) and stylesheets 201 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.78 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.78 g of CO₂e: 93.6 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 8795
  • 33 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links must have discernible text (12 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 25 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8587
  • Meta description is long (272 characters)

    Your meta description is 272 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (LocalBusiness, Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “WebSite: image is not an absolute URL ("//images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62cca08ac61fe22becd…”.

  • 5 links with vague text

    5 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.

  • 111 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 111 pages on amplifier.com and 5 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “YOUR ORDER FULFILLMENT, AMPLIFIED.”.

  • Title: 58 characters

    Your title is a healthy 58 characters: “Amplifier Fulfillment | Branded E-commerce Fulfillment 3PL”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://amplifier.com/.

  • 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://amplifier.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing name, url, logo and description. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

3 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 (873 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (2 KiB, 14 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    /about, /resources, /for-ecommerce-brands and /for-collectibles-sellers have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 38 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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 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

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Error initializing QuickView TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'Global')”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    7 of 7 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix93
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 180 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://amplifier.com/for-consumer-product-gr.

  • 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 (amplifier.com).

  • Valid certificate (51 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR2 verifies for amplifier.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://amplifier.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    amplifier.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

    amplifier.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 28 years old

    28 years

    amplifier.com was registered in Nov 1997 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Nov 2027

    amplifier.com is registered until Nov 2027.

Content and conversion

4 to fix63
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 745 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 745 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 15 calls to action

    The homepage has 15 calls to action, for example “Order & Promotions Management”, “Pricing” and “GET STARTED”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Email authentication

1 to fix75
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be amplifier.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • Email authentication score: 75/100

    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 with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:207.207.57.128/28 include:sendgrid.net include:_spf.google.com include:spf.mail.intercom.io include:mail.zen…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “k1” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

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

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 21 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 21 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.
