Speed

11 to fix52
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    11.4 s · 1.6 MB

    About 1.6 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 11.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.8 s · 517 KiB

    26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (517 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    1.1 s · 828 KiB

    4 images could be 828 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 4.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Intercom, Hubspot and TrustArc and others), adding 3.0 MB and 789 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 52

    52/100

    Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    900 ms · 64 KiB

    About 64 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • Intercom adds 425 ms

    425 ms

    Intercom costs a phone 425 ms of main-thread work and 978 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.

  • Vimeo adds 86 ms

    86 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 86 ms of main-thread work and 1.5 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.

  • Hubspot adds 135 ms

    135 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 135 ms of main-thread work and 335 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

    150 ms · 26 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 150 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 29 ms

    29 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 29 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 32.7 s

    32.7 s

    Your largest element takes 32.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 32.9 s

    32.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 32.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.8 s

    13.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.2 s

    5.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 927 ms

    927 ms

    Real visitors wait 927 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 40 images without width and height

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 230 ms

    230 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 230 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    0%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 102 ms to 102 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Real visitors wait 2.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 102 ms

    102 ms

    Real visitors wait 102 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 12% faster for real visitors

    -12%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.8 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.005

    0.005

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.005, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix48
  • Page weight: 5.5 MB in 152 requests

    5.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.5 MB in 152 requests on a phone: scripts 2.9 MB (44), images 2.1 MB (60) and HTML 169 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 1.2 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 4 images below the first screen load straight away

    4 images further down the page (741 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (166 KiB) is 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.

  • About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.55 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.55 g of CO₂e: 186.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8994
  • 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.

  • 6 text elements with low contrast

    6 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 (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 links without text

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

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 53 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: 53 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 8598
  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • 157 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 157 pages on c2fo.com and 9 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 152 characters

    Your meta description is 152 characters: “Unlock liquidity with C2FO’s working capital platform. Get paid early on invoices, optimize payables, and accelerate ca…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “The Power to Move Capital Faster”.

  • Title: 47 characters

    Your title is a healthy 47 characters: “C2FO | World's Largest Working Capital Platform”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://c2fo.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage 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://c2fo.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

3 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,722 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /lending-connections is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 6 pages without a meta description

    /faqs, /resources, /category/market-trends, /category/cash-flow-management, /category/dynamic-discounting and /category/Finance-and-lending have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 4 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /earlypay, whose canonical is /receivables-solutions/early-pay. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 49 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

5 to fixGoogle 5869
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://c2fo.com/.

  • 5 small tap targets

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

  • 2 third-party cookies

    2 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “%c%d font-size:0;color:transparent NaN”.

  • 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

100
  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://c2fo.com/earlypay/.

  • 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.

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (c2fo.com).

  • Valid certificate (66 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for c2fo.com and is valid for another 66 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://c2fo.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 48 links work

    All 48 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 8 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

1 to fix
  • Domain expires in 82 days

    c2fo.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

  • DNSSEC is off

    c2fo.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 15 years old

    15 years

    c2fo.com was registered in Jan 2011 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only digicert.com, amazon.com, amazonaws.com and pki.goog to issue certificates for c2fo.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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.

  • About 1,184 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,184 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact Us”.

  • 19 calls to action

    The homepage has 19 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Request a Demo” and “Learn more”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block and 38 customer or partner logos.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Segment.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

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 ip4:4.14.48.138 ip4:34.213.159.149 ip4:38.140.137.146 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:mktomail.com in…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “selector1” and “k1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads HubSpot (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (TrustArc) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 22 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 22 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: TrustArc
