Live view · interaction off

Speed

4 to fix88
  • Mobile performance score: 88

    88/100

    Your mobile performance score is 88 (desktop: 91). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 41 KiB

    2 images could be 41 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 22 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (22 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 32 KiB

    About 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    98 KiB

    About 98 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (bdstatic.com and bcebos.com), adding 258 KiB and 53 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 15 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix100
  • Speed Index: 21.1 s

    21.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 21.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 2 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 101 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

11 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors wait 1.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 105 ms

    105 ms

    Real visitors wait 105 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 630 ms

    630 ms

    Real visitors wait 630 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.2 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    The page is fully interactive after 2.2 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.08 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.08 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.08 g of CO₂e: 9.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 292 KiB in 31 requests

    292 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 292 KiB in 31 requests on a phone: scripts 163 KiB (15), images 91 KiB (13) and HTML 31 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 6350
  • <html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

    <html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 15 images without alt text

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

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 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.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

1 checks passed
  • 2 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 6 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 2 passed and 4 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

8 to fixGoogle 9255
  • robots.txt blocks all crawlers

    Your robots.txt disallows the whole site for every crawler, so search engines are told to stay out.

  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is short (9 characters)

    Your title is only 9 characters: “百度一下,你就知道”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • Meta description is short (61 characters)

    Your meta description is only 61 characters: “全球领先的中文搜索引擎、致力于让网民更便捷地获取信息,找到所求。百度超过千亿的中文网页数据库,可以瞬间找到相关的搜索结果。”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.baidu.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 19 internal links, 36 external

    The homepage links to 19 pages on baidu.com and 36 external pages.

AI search readiness

2 to fix37
  • robots.txt blocks 6 AI answer engine crawlers

    6 of 6

    Your robots.txt shuts out ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude search (Claude-SearchBot), Claude (Claude-User), Perplexity (PerplexityBot) and Perplexity (Perplexity-User). These fetch pages to answer people's questions and cite the source, so your site can't be quoted or linked in those answers.

  • 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 /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.

  • Opted out of AI training for 5 crawlers

    robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 pages share a title

    / and /s all use the title “百度一下,你就知道”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 3 pages without a meta description

    /more, /duty and /licence have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    /more, /s and /licence have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages with very little text

    /more and /duty 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.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    /duty took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 4 internal pages checked

    We fetched 4 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 4 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 4 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9670
  • No mobile viewport

    No viewport meta tag, so phones render the desktop layout zoomed out.

1 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

Security and trust

1 to fix90
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • HTTP/1.1 only

    The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 2 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 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.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (104 days left)

    The certificate from GlobalSign nv-sa · GlobalSign RSA OV SSL CA 2018 verifies for baidu.com and is valid for another 104 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://baidu.com redirects to the secure version.

  • All 36 links work

    All 36 links checked from your homepage (16 internal, 20 external) answered without errors; 26 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    baidu.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

    baidu.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 26 years old

    26 years

    baidu.com was registered in Oct 1999 through MarkMonitor Information Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2028

    baidu.com is registered until Oct 2028.

Content and conversion

5 to fix42
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 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 6,386 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 6,386 words of visible text.

1 checks passed
  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    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 with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf1.baidu.com include:spf2.baidu.com include:spf3.baidu.com include:spf4.baidu.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
