Speed

6 to fix59
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.3 s · 501 KiB

    About 501 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    650 ms · 89 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (89 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 118 KiB

    About 118 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 272 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    200 ms · 53 KiB

    7 images could be 53 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    200 ms · 29 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 29 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Maps, Google Fonts and Cloudinary and others), adding 406 KiB and 97 ms of main-thread time.

  • Document request latency

    40 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • 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: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 379 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 132 ms

    132 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 132 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix63
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.8 s

    9.8 s

    Your largest element takes 9.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 9.9 s

    9.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 214 ms

    214 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 214 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 2 images without width and height

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 21.8 MB in 24 requests

    21.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 21.8 MB in 24 requests on a phone: media 20.2 MB (3), scripts 1.1 MB (5) and images 281 KiB (11). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (71 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 6.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    6.18 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 6.18 g of CO₂e: 741.9 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

6 to fixGoogle 8490
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 9 images without alt text

    9 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 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.

  • No main landmark

    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)

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

  • 6 links without text

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

1 checks passed
  • 33 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 39 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 33 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 9263
  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is short (27 characters)

    Your title is only 27 characters: “Centric General Contractors”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 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.

  • Meta description is long (452 characters)

    Your meta description is 452 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 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 XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.centricgc.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 23 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 23 pages on centricgc.com and 5 external pages.

1 checks passed
  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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

100
  • 1 page with very little text

    /contact 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.

  • 12 internal pages checked

    We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 12 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 12 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 12 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    12 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix79
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://centricgc.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • 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.

  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://centricgc.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.

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (32 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR2 verifies for centricgc.com and is valid for another 32 days.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 18 links work

    All 18 links checked from your homepage (13 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    centricgc.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

    centricgc.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

    centricgc.com was registered in Jun 2011 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jun 2027

    centricgc.com is registered until Jun 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix58
  • 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.

  • Only about 43 words

    The homepage has only about 43 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 2 email links.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    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 with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 mx include:_spf.google.com include:one.zoho.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “hs1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads HubSpot (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.

  • 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

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