Speed

3 to fix80
  • Mobile performance score: 80

    80/100

    Your mobile performance score is 80. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 61 KiB

    About 61 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    315 KiB

    10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (315 KiB).

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google/Doubleclick Ads and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 203 KiB and 213 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    206 KiB

    1 image could be 206 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 125 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 202 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix81
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.3 s

    4.3 s

    Your largest element takes 4.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Investor Grade Web Applications SaaS Systems”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.3 s

    4.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 58 ms

    58 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 58 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.14 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.14 g of CO₂e: 17.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 524 KiB in 19 requests

    524 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 524 KiB in 19 requests on a phone: images 309 KiB (8), scripts 202 KiB (4) and HTML 6 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • 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 7486
  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • <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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h1 → h4 and h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 13 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 19 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 24 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 19 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10088
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 6 H1 headlines

    There are 6 <h1> headlines (“Investor Grade”, “Web Applications” and “SaaS Systems Development”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 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.

  • 34 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 34 pages on c3solutionware.com and 2 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 156 characters

    Your meta description is 156 characters: “We offer custom web applications, AWS cloud design, and SaaS systems development services in Austin. Contact us for fre…”.

  • Title: 59 characters

    Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Full Stack Web Apps, AWS Cloud, & SaaS Software Development”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.c3solutionware.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at http://www.c3solutionware.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (478 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /faqs.aspx, whose canonical is /faq.aspx. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /softwaresolutionrequest.aspx has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /softwaresolutionrequest.aspx has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 6 small tap targets

    6 of 11 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://c3solutionware.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.

  • HTTP/1.1 only

    The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.facebook.com/pages/C3-Solutionware/340754138311.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “"1; mode=block"”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

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

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (c3solutionware.com).

  • Valid certificate (72 days left)

    The certificate from Network Solutions L.L.C. · Network Solutions RSA DV SSL CA 3 verifies for c3solutionware.com and is valid for another 72 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

  • HSTS enabled

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

  • All 30 links work

    All 30 links checked from your homepage (28 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

1 to fix
  • Domain expires in 36 days

    c3solutionware.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

  • No CAA record

    c3solutionware.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

    c3solutionware.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.

1 checks passed
  • Domain is 16 years old

    16 years

    c3solutionware.com was registered in Dec 2009 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

Content and conversion

2 to fix67
  • 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.

  • 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 442 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 442 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact Us Online”, “Call or Text Us” and “Call or Text Us (512) 820-4950”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (0 fields at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 0 email links.

Email authentication

2 to fix35
  • No DMARC policy

    c3solutionware.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 35/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.registeredsite.com include:spf.cloudus.oxcs.net ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

  • The footer still says © 2013.
