ccli.com website review

About 230 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (290 KiB).

Your mobile performance score is 38 (desktop: 73). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

A phone's processor spends 4.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot and cloudflare.com and others), adding 713 KiB and 729 ms of main-thread time.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 526 ms of main-thread work and 363 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.

11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 287 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

The page has 1,798 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

About 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

Desktop scores 73 but mobile only 38. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

Polyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

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 visitors see the first content after 3.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

Your largest element takes 10.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “A worship team leading on a church stage.”.

The first text or image appears after 4.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors wait 4.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 104 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 3.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 155 requests on a phone: scripts 990 KiB (72), other files 712 KiB (40) and images 367 KiB (17). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.73 g of CO₂e: 87.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (4 elements).

There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

Your title is only 5 characters: “CCLI®”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

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

No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

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

Your robots.txt shuts out ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude (Claude-User) and Perplexity (Perplexity-User). These fetch pages to answer people's questions and cite the source, so your site can't be quoted or linked in those answers.

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.

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 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED”.

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

ccli.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.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage has only about 0 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

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.

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

Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
