Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
9.8 s · 1.9 MBAbout 1.9 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 9.8 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.0 s · 966 KiB67 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (966 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
2.8 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.8 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37 (desktop: 55). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.4 s
A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 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 Tag Manager, YouTube and Facebook and others), adding 3.9 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
900 ms · 215 KiBAbout 215 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
800 ms · 129 KiB8 images could be 129 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.
YouTube adds 689 ms
689 msYouTube costs a phone 689 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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 737 ms
737 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 737 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.
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 11 KiB11 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
dealerspike.net adds 47 ms
47 msdealerspike.net costs a phone 47 ms of main-thread work and 323 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.
Font display
250 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 38 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 38 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 213 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
Duplicated JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Real-user CLS: 0.27
0.27For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.27 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
First Contentful Paint: 16.6 s
16.6 sThe first text or image appears after 16.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 27.5 s
27.5 sYour largest element takes 27.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
Speed Index: 16.6 s
16.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 16.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 34.0 s
34.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 34.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 743 ms
743 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 743 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 37% slower for real visitors
+37%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 113 ms to 162 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
14 images without width and height
14 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) got 13% slower for real visitors
+13%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
2 checks passed
Real-user FCP: 1.2 s
1.2 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.1 MB in 161 requests
5.1 MBYour homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 161 requests on a phone: scripts 3.8 MB (58), images 618 KiB (30) and fonts 285 KiB (6). 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 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.45 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.45 g of CO₂e: 173.8 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
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 16 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
36 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 38 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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 X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
108 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 108 pages on brookstractor.com and 6 external pages.

AI search readiness
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
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Other pages

15 of 36 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
5 third-party cookies

Security and trust
http:// does not redirect
http://brookstractor.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.
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.
1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.dealerspike.com/agriculture.
No Referrer-Policy

Content and conversion
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 social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
Only about 82 words
The homepage has only about 82 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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.
3 checks passed
7 calls to action

DMARC tells receivers to reject 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:secureserver.net ip4:47.51.243.50 ip4:67.53.239.16/29 ip4:67.53.241.192/29 ip4:74.62.72.144/29 ip4:12.25…”.
