beyondfinance.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
iovation adds 1.1 s
1.1 siovation costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 30 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 5.8 s
A phone's processor spends 5.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.0 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 (iovation, Google Tag Manager and Intercom and others), adding 1.4 MB and 2.7 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
250 ms · 1.7 MB90 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.7 MB).
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.4 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Mobile performance score: 71
71/100Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
553 KiBAbout 553 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Improve image delivery
513 KiB2 images could be 513 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 466 ms
466 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 466 ms of main-thread work and 376 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.
Intercom adds 262 ms
262 msIntercom costs a phone 262 ms of main-thread work and 236 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.
Legacy JavaScript
97 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 97 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
23 KiBAbout 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Real-user TTFB: 988 ms
988 msReal visitors wait 988 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
43 images without width and height
43 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

1.0 sYour largest element renders in 1.0 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Debt Relief and Financial Wellness. Built to Last.”.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 146 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 146 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (53), scripts 1.5 MB (51) and fonts 62 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
11 images in older formats
11 images (1.5 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.
12 images below the first screen load straight away
12 images further down the page (1.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
26 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example app-preview-DjlL9IJG.png at 1,132 px wide, shown at 366 px. Resized copies would save about 26 KiB.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.98 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.98 g of CO₂e: 117.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Table header text should not be empty (1 element)
Table header text should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 55 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
56 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 56 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
10 H1 headlines
There are 10 <h1> headlines (“Debt Relief and Financial Wellness. Built to Last.”, “Relief in Your Hands” and “What Beyond Finance Offers: Debt Relief and Finan…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
