Speed

  • Google's speed test didn't respond

    Google's speed test didn't respond for this site, so speed and Core Web Vitals are not measured here. Your full playbook measures them.

Core Web Vitals

Not measured in this review.

Images and page weight

4 to fix25
  • 3 images over 500 KB

    3 images weigh 4.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • Page weight: 5.1 MB

    5.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.1 MB on a phone, 4.6 MB of it images (90%). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    3.5 MB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example IMG_2068_neu-min-scaled-e1602232539411_6-2-2.jpg at 2,560 px wide, shown at 400 px. Resized copies would save about 3.5 MB.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (4.5 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.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.44 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.44 g of CO₂e: 173.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

6 to fix90
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 28 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 3 tap targets too small

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

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 6 links without text

    6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 6 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fix83
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is long (66 characters)

    Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Sawn timber, veneers, panels - Find here what you are looking for!”.

  • 50 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 50 pages on apptimber.com and 9 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 134 characters

    Your meta description is 134 characters: “For your peace of mind, find here sustainably and legally sourced imported sawn timber, veneers, panels and surface mat…”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://apptimber.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

Other pages

5 to fix71
  • 2 pages point its canonical at the homepage

    /export-surfaces and /export/export-services-2 declare the homepage as their canonical URL, which tells Google they are copies of the homepage and keeps them out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 3 pages share a title

    /, /export-surfaces and /export/export-services-2 all use the title “Sawn timber, veneers, panels - Find here what you are looking for!”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    /category/blog has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    /export-surfaces and /export/export-services-2 use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 8 pages without an H1

    /industry, /export, /export/products-2, /about, /export-surfaces and /downloads and 2 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 5 pages with very little text

    /export, /export/products-2, /export-surfaces, /downloads and /export/export-services-2 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.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    /export/products-2, /about and /export-surfaces took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 14 internal pages checked

    We fetched 14 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    8 pages of 14 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 8 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fix93
  • 26 small tap targets

    26 of 28 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • 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.

  • 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 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 (apptimber.com).

  • Valid certificate (76 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for apptimber.com and is valid for another 76 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://apptimber.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 20 links work

    All 20 links checked from your homepage (17 internal, 3 external) answered without errors; 13 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    apptimber.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

    apptimber.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 25 years old

    25 years

    apptimber.com was registered in Nov 2000 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Nov 2027

    apptimber.com is registered until Nov 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix64
  • 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 110 words

    The homepage has only about 110 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “CONTACT”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 5 email links.

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    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: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:mail.zohoanalytics.com include:1636864.spf02.hubspotemail.net ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google” and “hs1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, 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.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
