Speed
Mobile performance score: 78
78/100Your mobile performance score is 78. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, hsappstatic.net and Hubspot and others), adding 1.5 MB and 817 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 361 ms
361 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 361 ms of main-thread work and 683 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 JavaScript
417 KiBAbout 417 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
177 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (177 KiB).
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 152 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
49 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 49 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
21 KiBAbout 21 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
6547aa392efa4dbb07d56118_logo-opensourcing.svg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.47 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.47 g of CO₂e: 56.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.7 MB in 113 requests
1.7 MBYour homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 113 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (40), images 119 KiB (31) and fonts 104 KiB (5). That is a lean page.
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
8 text elements with low contrast
8 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 (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 47 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

1 third-party cookie
1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
2 distorted images
2 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
3 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
5 of 5 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
2 redirects before the homepage
Opening https://candidesk.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.
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 (opensourcing.com).
Valid certificate (76 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for candidesk.com and is valid for another 76 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://candidesk.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 33 links work
All 33 links checked from your homepage (28 internal, 5 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
opensourcing.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
opensourcing.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 28 years old
28 yearsopensourcing.com was registered in Oct 1998 through OVH sas. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Oct 2028
opensourcing.com is registered until Oct 2028.
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.
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.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 906 words of copy
The homepage carries about 906 words of visible text.
6 checks passed
2 calls to action
The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “[email protected]”.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 26 testimonial or review blocks, 23 customer or partner logos, a star rating and 2 trust badges.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and HubSpot.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.
Opening hours shown
Your opening hours are on the homepage.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
candidesk.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 SPF record
candidesk.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.
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: 0/100
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.
