Speed

7 to fix49
  • Improve image delivery

    2.6 s · 1.7 MB

    12 images could be 1.7 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.7 s · 531 KiB

    About 531 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 49

    49/100

    Your mobile performance score is 49 (desktop: 91). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1,013 KiB and 735 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    650 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.

  • Google CDN adds 453 ms

    453 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 453 ms of main-thread work and 731 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: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 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 148 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    62 KiB

    About 62 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 91 but mobile only 49. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    9 KiB

    Polyfills 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3 KiB).

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix53
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 20.7 s

    20.7 s

    Your largest element takes 20.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Advancing our communities through qu…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 20.7 s

    20.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 20.7 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.

  • Speed Index: 6.4 s

    6.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 502 ms

    502 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 502 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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: 0.026

    0.026

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.026, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 6.5 MB in 69 requests

    6.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 69 requests on a phone: images 4.5 MB (17), scripts 1.2 MB (26) and other files 353 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 4.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    2.6 MB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example image.png at 1,500 px wide, shown at 351 px. Resized copies would save about 2.6 MB.

  • 4 images in older formats

    4 images (5.1 MB) 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (5.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.83 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.83 g of CO₂e: 219.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 6687
  • 4 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 4 tap targets too small

    4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (13 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 13 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 5 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 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. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 8573
  • 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: “Home - ANCHOR”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 4 H1 headlines

    There are 4 <h1> headlines (“Advancing our communities through quality constru…”, “Advancing our communities through quality constru…” and “Advancing our communities through quality constru…”). 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.

  • 12 links with vague text

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

  • 43 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 43 pages on anchorconst.com and 4 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://anchorconst.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 (455 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    /become-a-subcontractor, /services, /services/underground-wet-utilities, /services/underground-dry-utilities, /services/surface-restoration and /services/structures-bridges and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /about-us has 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.

  • 11 pages slow to respond

    /services/underground-wet-utilities, /services/underground-dry-utilities, /services/surface-restoration, /services/structures-bridges, /services/green-infrastructures and /services/trenchless and 5 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 23 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

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 7 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • 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.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example http://outlook.com/anchorconst.com.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • 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 (anchorconst.com).

  • Valid certificate (47 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for anchorconst.com and is valid for another 47 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://anchorconst.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 30 links work

    All 30 links checked from your homepage (26 internal, 4 external) answered without errors; 19 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    anchorconst.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

    anchorconst.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 22 years old

    22 years

    anchorconst.com was registered in Oct 2004 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2029

    anchorconst.com is registered until Oct 2029.

Content and conversion

3 to fix50
  • 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 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 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 281 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 281 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 12 calls to action

    The homepage has 12 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Learn More”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Email authentication

100
  • 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:spf.protection.outlook.com include:docebosaas.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before 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

    2

    Opening 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
