Speed
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and LinkedIn Ads and others), adding 790 KiB and 778 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 510 ms
510 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 510 ms of main-thread work and 511 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: 3.1 s
A phone's processor spends 3.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 5.4 s
5.4 sThe first text or image appears after 5.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.1 s
8.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
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
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
Underground-Cellar-Case-Study-Cover.png weighs 1.7 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
Page weight: 3.9 MB in 96 requests
3.9 MBYour homepage downloads 3.9 MB in 96 requests on a phone: images 2.5 MB (19), scripts 958 KiB (34) and fonts 243 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.10 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.10 g of CO₂e: 131.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed

Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Zoom is disabled

All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h5, h2 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 16 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
35 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 40 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 35 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
3 H1 headlines
