Speed

6 to fix
  • Main-thread work: 4.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 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 (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 504 ms

    504 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 504 ms of main-thread work and 513 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.

  • Facebook adds 322 ms

    322 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 322 ms of main-thread work and 228 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.

  • Shopify adds 109 ms

    109 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 109 ms of main-thread work and 303 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.

  • 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: 14 ms

    14 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix33
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Speed Index: 10.0 s

    10.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 10.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors wait 2.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 401 ms

    401 ms

    Real visitors wait 401 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 822 ms

    822 ms

    Real visitors wait 822 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 95 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 12% slower for real visitors

    +12%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 202 ms to 227 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.3 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix67
  • Page weight: 3.9 MB in 338 requests

    3.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.9 MB in 338 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (60), images 1.2 MB (40) and other files 1.1 MB (204). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    ASHTALAKSHMI_YANTRA_VERTICAL_BANNER.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 6 images in older formats

    6 images (1.0 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (367 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.11 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.11 g of CO₂e: 133.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 7187
  • 11 buttons without a name

    11 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    5 dropdowns have no label.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Frames without titles

    1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

  • 7 images without alt text

    7 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 24 links without text

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

  • 18 form fields without a label

    18 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 9 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 8593
  • 7 H1 headlines

    There are 7 <h1> headlines (“Ashtalakshmi Yantra”, “Sarv Karya Siddhi Yantra” and “Lal Kitab Amrit Vashist Jyotish”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 10 links with vague text

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

  • 216 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 216 pages on astroscience.com and 11 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 125 characters

    Your meta description is 125 characters: “Experience the power of astrology at Astroscience with GD Vashist, India's trusted astrologer known for accurate predic…”.

  • Title: 53 characters

    Your title is a healthy 53 characters: “Astroscience: Trust GD Vashist for Accurate Astrology”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.astroscience.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization, Person 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://www.astroscience.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,101 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without a meta description

    /collections/all has 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 117 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

4 to fixGoogle 7774
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.astroscience.com/.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Refused to apply style from 'https://www.astroscience.com/cdn/shop/t/23/assets/font-file.scss.liquid?v=8638181272234753…”.

  • Pasting is blocked

    A form field blocks pasting, which frustrates password managers and people on phones.

  • 5 distorted images

    5 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    58 of 66 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 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.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; 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.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (astroscience.com).

  • Valid certificate (64 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for astroscience.com and is valid for another 64 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://astroscience.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 48 links work

    All 48 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 8 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • DNSSEC is off

    astroscience.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 26 years old

    26 years

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

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only pki.goog, ssl.com, digicert.com and globalsign.com to issue certificates for astroscience.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

  • Registered until Oct 2030

    astroscience.com is registered until Oct 2030.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • 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.

  • A 12-field form

    Your longest form asks for 12 fields (11 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • 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.

  • About 1,959 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,959 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Astrology Book” and “Contact Us”.

  • 16 calls to action

    The homepage has 16 calls to action, for example “Astrology Book”, “Contact Us” and “Shop Yantra Now”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: a star rating and 19 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be astroscience.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • Email authentication score: 70/100

    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 in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 +a +mx +ip4:103.53.41.159 ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 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.

  • 33 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 33 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
