Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.4 s · 910 KiBAbout 910 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 44
44/100Your mobile performance score is 44. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Improve image delivery
4.2 MB48 images could be 4.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 286 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (286 KiB).
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Hubspot and others), adding 2.6 MB and 589 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 318 ms
318 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 318 ms of main-thread work and 291 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.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 250 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
sanity.io adds 0 ms
0 mssanity.io costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 2.0 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 40 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 40 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
16 KiBAbout 16 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 25.8 s
25.8 sYour largest element takes 25.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies for analytics and advertising. You can opt o…”.
Time to Interactive: 27.5 s
27.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 27.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 10.9 s
10.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 10.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.6 s
3.6 sThe first text or image appears after 3.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 611 ms
611 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 611 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.7 MB in 144 requests
6.7 MBYour homepage downloads 6.7 MB in 144 requests on a phone: images 4.6 MB (67), scripts 1.7 MB (37) and fonts 345 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
9 images far larger than shown
1.8 MB9 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example d8a1c4409cdb1341c80bef38bb3ca3786ac071fc-2776x2082.jpg at 2,776 px wide, shown at 210 px. Resized copies would save about 1.8 MB.
1 image over 500 KB
d8a1c4409cdb1341c80bef38bb3ca3786ac071fc-2776x2082.jpg weighs 803 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
9 images in older formats
9 images (2.0 MB) are 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.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (1.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit
1.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.91 g of CO₂e: 229.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 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.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (9 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 69 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
38 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: 38 passed and 6 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (7 characters)
Your title is only 7 characters: “EventEQ”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is short (42 characters)
Your meta description is only 42 characters: “We create experiences, powered by emotions”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“experiences that resonate” and “services”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
35 internal links, 16 external
The homepage links to 35 pages on choice.live and 16 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.eventeq.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: 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://www.eventeq.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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
2 pages share a title
/contact and /contact-us all use the title “Contact | EventEQ”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
14 pages share a meta description
/about, /work, /services/scenic-design-and-fabrication, /services/led, /services/lighting and /services/audio and 8 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /contact-us, whose canonical is /contact. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
3 pages with very little text
/about, /contact and /contact-us have 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.
6 pages slow to respond
/services/audio, /services/technical-management, /services/managed-services, /services/production-design, /careers and /contact-us took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
14 internal pages checked
We fetched 14 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

43 of 47 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
http:// does not redirect
http://choice.live does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.
3 redirects before the homepage
Opening https://choice.live goes through 3 redirects before the homepage loads.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
8 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (eventeq.com).
Valid certificate (78 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for choice.live and is valid for another 78 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/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 23 links work
All 23 links checked from your homepage (15 internal, 8 external) answered without errors; 8 did not answer within 5 s.
security.txt published
A security.txt file tells researchers how to report a problem with your site.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 24 days
eventeq.com is registered until Dec 2026. If it lapses, the site and its email stop working and someone else can buy the name. Renew it, and turn on auto-renew.
DNSSEC is off
eventeq.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 21 years old
21 yearseventeq.com was registered in Dec 2004 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only sectigo.com, globalsign.com, letsencrypt.org and pki.goog to issue certificates for eventeq.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Content and conversion
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 analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
Only about 95 words
The homepage has only about 95 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.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “contact” and “get a quote”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “contact” and “get a quote”.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 100/100
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: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject 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 ip4:216.71.144.158 ip4:216.71.141.141 include:_spf.salesforce.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:_sp…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “mandrill”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
11 cookies set on arrival
11Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies, 5 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
14 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
