Speed

12 to fix45
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 861 KiB

    53 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (861 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 45

    45/100

    Your mobile performance score is 45 (desktop: 48). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, YouTube and Google/Doubleclick Ads and others), adding 4.8 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.3 MB

    About 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 140 KiB

    About 140 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 702 ms

    702 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 702 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 255 KiB

    2 images could be 255 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • YouTube adds 476 ms

    476 ms

    YouTube costs a phone 476 ms of main-thread work and 969 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.

  • Google/Doubleclick Ads adds 376 ms

    376 ms

    Google/Doubleclick Ads costs a phone 376 ms of main-thread work and 426 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.

  • Google Video adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    Google Video costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.8 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.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 198 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix43
  • Time to Interactive: 23.4 s

    23.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 23.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.335

    0.335

    The layout shifts by 0.335 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Your largest element takes 4.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Clearpath Technology is a full-service Digital Marketing co…”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 567 ms

    567 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 567 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.4 s

    5.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 25 images without width and height

    25 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.

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 5.9 MB in 141 requests

    5.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.9 MB in 141 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (36), media 1.8 MB (1) and images 553 KiB (38). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    54 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example as-seen-on.jpg at 1,400 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 54 KiB.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (332 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 4 images in older formats

    4 images (447 KiB) 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.

  • About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.68 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.68 g of CO₂e: 201.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8589
  • 22 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (22 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 22 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 form fields without a label

    6 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 4 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 8588
  • No H1 headline

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

  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • 92 internal links, 12 external

    The homepage links to 92 pages on clearpathtechnology.com and 12 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 99 characters

    Your meta description is 99 characters: “We are top notch search engine optimization company on multiple locations for best customer support”.

  • Title: 62 characters

    Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “Clearpath Technology - Professional Internet Marketing Company”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Internet Marketing and Organization.

  • 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://clearpathtechnology.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • 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 (1,070 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without an H1

    /about.php, /team.php, /media.php, /careers.php, /society.php and /alliances-partnerships.php and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 31 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 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

  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 7385
  • 5 third-party cookies

    5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 12 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “$ is not defined”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix83
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • 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.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • About 1,125 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,125 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.

  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Get a free quote now” and “Contact Us”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (5 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 testimonial or review blocks, a star rating, 1 trust badge and “3500 + businesses”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

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

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 23 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 23 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: TrustArc

    A consent management tool (TrustArc) loads with the page.

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at clearpathtechnology.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
