Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 248 KiBAbout 248 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
1.1 s · 149 KiBAbout 149 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 82 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (82 KiB).
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager and Optanon), adding 468 KiB and 258 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 18 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 163 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
151 KiB1 image could be 151 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.4 s
A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 618 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 1 ms
1 msYour server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
1 image in older formats
1 image (56 KiB) is 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.53 g of CO₂e: 63.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.9 MB in 72 requests
1.9 MBYour homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 72 requests on a phone: scripts 607 KiB (13), images 470 KiB (20) and fonts 425 KiB (9). That is a lean page.
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.

1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 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
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 122 characters
Your meta description is 122 characters: “Broadcom delivers semiconductors and infrastructure software for global enterprises’ most complex, mission-critical nee…”.
Title: 37 characters
Your title is a healthy 37 characters: “Broadcom Inc. | Connecting Everything”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.broadcom.com/.
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.broadcom.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
0%A phone browser shows 465 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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 https://www.broadcom.com/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.
1 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.
Best practices
4 small tap targets
4 of 20 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.
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.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
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 465 words of copy
The homepage carries about 465 words of visible text.

Privacy and tracking

8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
10 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
