Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 1,014 KiB11 images could be 1,014 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, website-files.com and Intercom and others), adding 2.6 MB and 936 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 69
69/100Your mobile performance score is 69 (desktop: 83). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 75 KiBAbout 75 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
569 KiBAbout 569 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 264 KiB26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (264 KiB).
website-files.com adds 180 ms
180 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 180 ms of main-thread work and 1.4 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 272 ms
272 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 272 ms of main-thread work and 478 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: 2.4 s
A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Intercom adds 175 ms
175 msIntercom costs a phone 175 ms of main-thread work and 293 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.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 147 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
73 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 73 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb 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.

Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 21.3 s
21.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 21.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 6.9 s
6.9 sYour largest element takes 6.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Speed Index: 4.5 s
4.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s
2.3 sThe first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
18 images without width and height
18 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.

Tap response (INP) got 23% faster for real visitors
-23%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 224 ms to 160 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 17% faster for real visitors
-17%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.3 s to 1.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 164 ms
164 msScripts block the page for only 164 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.037
0.037The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.037, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 192 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 192 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (49), images 1.3 MB (46) and fonts 328 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
66f4ff17c905e076623ae7d0_plans photo-p-500.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
7 images in older formats
7 images (823 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.
2 images far larger than shown
153 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 66f5024d6c3e7ab6418664f7_earing pgoto.jpg at 466 px wide, shown at 97 px. Resized copies would save about 153 KiB.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.92 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.92 g of CO₂e: 110.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 44 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 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: 41 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“More Sales. Less Work.” and “Clientbook by the numbers”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
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 (301 characters)
Your meta description is 301 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
23 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 23 pages on clientbook.com and 9 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 61 characters
Your title is a healthy 61 characters: “Clientbook | Digital sales assistant app for luxury retailers”.
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.clientbook.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.
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 (410 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
/pricing-plans is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
3 pages share a meta description
/features/old-client-management, /terms-and-conditions and /appointments use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
1 page with very little text
/privacy-policy 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.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 16 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
6 checks passed

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
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.
8 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (clientbook.com).
Valid certificate (41 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for clientbook.com and is valid for another 41 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:// redirects to https
http://clientbook.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 21 links work
All 21 links checked from your homepage (17 internal, 4 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
clientbook.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
clientbook.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 20 years old
20 yearsclientbook.com was registered in Nov 2005 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Nov 2027
clientbook.com is registered until Nov 2027.
Content and conversion
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.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: “2,400+ reviews”. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.
About 383 words of copy
The homepage carries about 383 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
8 calls to action
The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “>>Learn More” and “Book a Demo”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Umami.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 2 email links.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be clientbook.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:zoho.com include:_spf.reply.io include:sender.zohobooks.com include:ab.sendgrid.…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “s1” and “s2”), 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 Ads, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and The Trade Desk (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Usercentrics) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
15 cookies set on arrival
15Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
51 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 51 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
