Speed

12 to fix34
  • Render-blocking requests

    5.5 s

    21 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.5 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.4 s · 856 KiB

    About 856 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.2 s · 368 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (368 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 34

    34/100

    Your mobile performance score is 34 (desktop: 47). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 8.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 8.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.2 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, Google Tag Manager and Hubspot and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.

  • Google CDN adds 626 ms

    626 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 626 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 171 KiB

    About 171 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 500 ms

    500 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 500 ms of main-thread work and 522 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    504 KiB

    16 images could be 504 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 2,975 HTML elements

    The page has 2,975 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Hubspot adds 214 ms

    214 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 214 ms of main-thread work and 340 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 215 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).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    34 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 34 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    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.

  • First Contentful Paint: 7.7 s

    7.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.8 s

    13.8 s

    Your largest element takes 13.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Preboarding. Onboarding. Offboarding. One platform, so you …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 22.9 s

    22.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 22.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.6 s

    9.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.0 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 53% slower for real visitors

    +53%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 2.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 17% slower for real visitors

    +17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 111 ms to 137 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

3 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 5.0 MB in 225 requests

    5.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 225 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (51), images 1.3 MB (97) and fonts 790 KiB (18). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    52 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 8.jpg at 550 px wide, shown at 80 px. Resized copies would save about 52 KiB.

  • 9 images in older formats

    9 images (362 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 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.40 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.40 g of CO₂e: 168.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

10 to fixGoogle 8489
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (2 elements)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 29 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links look like plain text

    3 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (37 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 37 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (3 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails 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.

  • 8 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 139 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 10 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9294
  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization and WebPage) but with 1 problem, for example “ld+json block 2 is not valid JSON (Unexpected non-whitespace character after JSON at position 1)”.

  • 13 links with vague text

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

  • 200 internal links, 19 external

    The homepage links to 200 pages on clickboarding.com and 19 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 125 characters

    Your meta description is 125 characters: “Built for HR & TA teams hiring at scale so you're not chasing process or people. Start with what's most chaotic, then e…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Preboarding. Onboarding. Offboarding.One platform, so you always keep up.”.

  • Title: 62 characters

    Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “Click Boarding: so you keep up with every employee transition.”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • 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.clickboarding.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,326 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (5 KiB, 26 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

Security and trust

3 to fix79
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://clickboarding.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.

  • 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 certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for clickboarding.com and is valid for another 41 days.

  • All 51 links work

    All 51 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 11 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

4 checks passed
  • Domain is 14 years old

    14 years

    clickboarding.com was registered in Oct 2012 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only pki.goog, comodoca.com, digicert.com and letsencrypt.org to issue certificates for clickboarding.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

  • DNSSEC is on

    clickboarding.com's DNS answers are signed (DNSSEC), so they can't be forged on the way to visitors.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    clickboarding.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

100
  • No form on the homepage

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

    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.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:mail.zendesk.com include:2338832.spf07.hubspotemail.net ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
