basic.net does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.

Speed

10 to fix38
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    21.1 s · 5.9 MB

    68 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.9 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    10.3 s · 3.5 MB

    19 images could be 3.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 10.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    6.3 s

    32 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 6.3 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.2 s · 220 KiB

    About 220 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.2 s · 197 KiB

    About 197 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 38

    38/100

    Your mobile performance score is 38 (desktop: 43). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Minify JavaScript

    460 ms · 89 KiB

    89 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    450 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 450 ms).

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 418 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 22 KiB

    22 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Document request latency

    29 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    8 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 8 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Unpkg), adding 2 KiB and 1 ms of main-thread time.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 222 ms

    222 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 222 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix47
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 28.8 s

    28.8 s

    Your largest element takes 28.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Kappa x Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP: a special jersey for th…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 29.2 s

    29.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 29.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 6.4 s

    6.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 6.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 11.9 s

    11.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 689 ms

    689 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 689 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 77% slower for real visitors

    +77%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 2.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 15 images without width and height

    15 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
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.042

    0.042

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.042, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix50
  • Page weight: 6.0 MB in 89 requests

    6.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.0 MB in 89 requests on a phone: images 4.9 MB (35), scripts 509 KiB (24) and fonts 283 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 10 images in older formats

    10 images (1.4 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 far larger than shown

    47 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 200655_006.JPG at 1,280 px wide, shown at 329 px. Resized copies would save about 47 KiB.

  • About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.70 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.70 g of CO₂e: 204.3 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

14 to fixGoogle 6481
  • ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (1 element)

    ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 29 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 12 tap targets too small

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

  • <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.

  • 4 images without alt text

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

  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 10 links without text

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

  • 9 form fields without a label

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

  • No page language

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

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (4 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 11 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

11 to fixGoogle 6451
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is short (29 characters)

    Your title is only 29 characters: “BasicNet | Official home page”. 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.

  • 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 http://www.basic.net/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at basic.net/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • Only 2 internal links

    The homepage links to only 2 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • 8 links with vague text

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

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

AI search readiness

2 to fix63
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    27%

    A phone browser shows 985 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 269. 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 /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

    There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 3 pages share a title

    /, /v2/about-us.html and /v2/history.html all use the title “BasicNet | Official home page”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages without a meta description

    /v2/about-us.html and /v2/history.html have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    /v2/about-us.html and /v2/history.html have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /v2/history.html 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.

  • 2 internal pages checked

    We fetched 2 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 2 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 2 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7087
  • 15 small tap targets

    15 of 43 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “adjust is not defined”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

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

  • Does not redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS

    Does not redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix50
  • No HTTPS

    Your homepage is served without HTTPS, so browsers mark it “Not secure” and some refuse forms on it.

  • http:// does not redirect

    http://basic.net does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=http://www.basicpress.com/contenuti/media/resultMedia.asp?ID={{news.MediaId}}.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

1 checks passed
  • All 9 links work

    All 9 links checked from your homepage (2 internal, 7 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    basic.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.

  • DNSSEC is off

    basic.net'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 27 years old

    27 years

    basic.net was registered in Jan 1999 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jan 2028

    basic.net is registered until Jan 2028.

Content and conversion

5 to fix20
  • 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 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 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 985 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 985 words of visible text.

Email authentication

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

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be basic.net 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 mx include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spf.exclaimer.net ip4:194.153.131.147 ip4:194.153.131.153 ip4:194.…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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).

Upkeep, stack and company

  • It loads jQuery 3.1.1, older than 3.5 (which fixed known security holes).
