Speed

11 to fix24
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.6 s · 6.6 MB

    25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6.6 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.7 s · 1.2 MB

    About 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 24

    24/100

    Your mobile performance score is 24. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    5.8 MB

    7 images could be 5.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (hsappstatic.net, Facebook and Google Maps and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 457 ms

    457 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 457 ms of main-thread work and 716 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

    350 ms · 97 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 97 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 342 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 2,533 HTML elements

    The page has 2,533 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Google Maps adds 176 ms

    176 ms

    Google Maps costs a phone 176 ms of main-thread work and 329 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    65 KiB

    About 65 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Forced reflow

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

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix29
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 17.4 s

    17.4 s

    Your largest element takes 17.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Home meals”.

  • Time to Interactive: 31.5 s

    31.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 31.5 s. Good is under 3.8 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.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.5 s

    5.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.4 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 51 images without width and height

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

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.165

    0.165

    The layout shifts by 0.165 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 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.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 11.2 MB in 159 requests

    11.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.2 MB in 159 requests on a phone: images 7.7 MB (47), scripts 2.7 MB (69) and fonts 623 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (22 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.17 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.17 g of CO₂e: 380.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8589
  • Images must have alternative text (1 element)

    Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • <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.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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 form fields without a label

    2 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.

1 checks passed
  • 40 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9288
  • No H1 headline

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

  • 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.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 154 characters

    Your meta description is 154 characters: “Fresh, chef-prepared meals delivered to your workplace or home. Order individual meals, weekly meal plans, or catering.…”.

  • Title: 56 characters

    Your title is a healthy 56 characters: “Bitetime | Chef-prepared meals delivered to work or home”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://bitetime.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: FoodEstablishment, Organization 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://bitetime.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

2 to fix58
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    0%

    A phone browser shows 2,821 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.

  • Parts of the site are closed to 4 AI crawlers

    Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude (Claude-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.

2 checks passed
  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (2 KiB, 11 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7789
  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'getAttribute')”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix80
  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • No Content-Security-Policy

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

  • No clickjacking protection

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

  • 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.

  • No security.txt

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

3 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (160 days left)

    The certificate from Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M04 verifies for bitetime.com and is valid for another 160 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

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

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    bitetime.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

    bitetime.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 22 years old

    22 years

    bitetime.com was registered in Apr 2004 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Apr 2027

    bitetime.com is registered until Apr 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix64
  • 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 opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 2,821 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,821 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Order catering”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Meta Pixel and HubSpot.

  • Phone number on the homepage

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

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    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 in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:2475207.spf10.hubspotemail.net ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 20 cookies set on arrival

    20

    Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies, 6 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 25 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 25 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

    A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.
