Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.8 s · 1.2 MBAbout 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.8 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
2.7 s · 569 KiB6 images could be 569 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.0 s · 452 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (452 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Mobile performance score: 28
28/100Your mobile performance score is 28. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 8.8 s
A phone's processor spends 8.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.0 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 (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and hsappstatic.net and others), adding 3.2 MB and 3.2 s of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 706 ms
706 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 706 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 678 ms
678 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 678 ms of main-thread work and 723 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
500 ms · 222 KiBAbout 222 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
hsappstatic.net adds 531 ms
531 mshsappstatic.net costs a phone 531 ms of main-thread work and 711 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.
reddit adds 468 ms
468 msreddit costs a phone 468 ms of main-thread work and 27 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 375 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Hubspot adds 294 ms
294 msHubspot costs a phone 294 ms of main-thread work and 379 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.
2,627 HTML elements
The page has 2,627 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Minify CSS
50 ms · 11 KiB11 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Legacy JavaScript
25 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 25 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.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.3 MB in 184 requests
5.3 MBYour homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 184 requests on a phone: scripts 3.3 MB (55), images 932 KiB (48) and other files 490 KiB (52). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images in older formats
3 images (500 KiB) 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.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (396 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
58 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example BPM-40-Lock-up-Hz.jpg at 1,459 px wide, shown at 120 px. Resized copies would save about 58 KiB.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.50 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.50 g of CO₂e: 180.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
2 dropdowns have no label.
9 text elements with low contrast
9 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
6 form fields without a label
6 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 24 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
55 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: 55 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

No CAA record
bpm.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
