Speed
Render-blocking requests
3.7 s24 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.7 s.
Improve image delivery
1.0 s · 888 KiB3 images could be 888 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 267 KiBAbout 267 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your mobile performance score is 41 (desktop: 53). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 88 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (88 KiB).
Font display
450 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 450 ms).
Minify JavaScript
160 ms · 50 KiB50 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, jQuery CDN and Google Maps and others), adding 427 KiB and 134 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 73 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.

Main-thread work: 0.6 s
A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 275 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 116 ms
116 msYour server sent the HTML in 116 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Cumulative Layout Shift: 1
1The layout shifts by 1 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.9 s
7.9 sYour largest element takes 7.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
First Contentful Paint: 3.8 s
3.8 sThe first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 7.9 s
7.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.7 s
4.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
4 images without width and height
4 images 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
Total Blocking Time: 45 ms
45 msScripts block the page for only 45 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.0 MB in 49 requests
2.0 MBYour homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 49 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (11), scripts 614 KiB (26) and fonts 131 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.57 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.57 g of CO₂e: 68.5 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
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 images without alt text
4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (16 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 16 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
10 links without text
10 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 checks passed
33 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 38 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 33 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
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.
24 internal links, 21 external
The homepage links to 24 pages on arter.net and 21 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 113 characters
Your meta description is 113 characters: “ARTER is a European agency with an international reach, dedicated to responsible, resilient, high-impact culture.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “ARTER, ARTISTIC PRODUCTION AGENCY”.
Title: 37 characters
Your title is a healthy 37 characters: “Produce the great moments of creation”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://arter.net/en/.
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://arter.net/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.
Other pages
3 pages share a title
/it, /en/arter-italia-en and /fr/arter-italia all use the title “Arter Italia | ARTER”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages without a meta description
/en/agences, /en/projets, /en/projets/fondation-louis-vuitton-calder-rever-en-equilibre-2, /en/projets/institut-francais-yto-barrada-comme-saturne-venice-biennale, /en/projets/zineb-sedira-dreams-have-no-titles-friche-la-belle-de-mai and /en/legal-notice have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /it, whose canonical is /it/arter-italia-it. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page with very little text
/en/contact 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.
15 internal pages checked

Best practices
3 small tap targets
3 of 12 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
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 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.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (arter.net).
Valid certificate (87 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for arter.net and is valid for another 87 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://arter.net redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 36 links work
All 36 links checked from your homepage (17 internal, 19 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
arter.net 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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 22 years old
22 yearsarter.net was registered in Jul 2004 through OVH sas. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
DNSSEC is on
arter.net's DNS answers are signed (DNSSEC), so they can't be forged on the way to visitors.
Registered until Jul 2027
arter.net is registered until Jul 2027.
Content and conversion
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.
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.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 4 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
Only about 140 words
The homepage has only about 140 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.
4 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “[email protected]”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be arter.net is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
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 mx include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:40177840.spf02.hubspotemail.net -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “mail”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before 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.
3 cookies set on arrival
3Opening 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.
6 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
