Speed

2 to fix99
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    500 ms · 136 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (136 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    130 ms · 14 KiB

    About 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 130 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Cloudflare), adding 10 KiB and 10 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    10 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 10 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.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 99

    99/100

    Your mobile performance score is 99. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 25 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 83 ms

    83 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 83 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

100
  • 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.

6 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Speed Index: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.7 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.7 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “We find critical vulnerabilities before hackers exploit them”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.003

    0.003

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.003, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The page is fully interactive after 1.7 s.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.06 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.06 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.06 g of CO₂e: 7.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 233 KiB in 9 requests

    233 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 233 KiB in 9 requests on a phone: scripts 139 KiB (5), fonts 48 KiB (1) and HTML 27 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9092
  • Malformed lists

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 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.

  • Headings should not be empty (3 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 29 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 34 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 29 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9275
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (18 characters)

    Your title is only 18 characters: “Home - Codean Labs”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“We find critical vulnerabilities before hackers e…” and “Let’s talk. One short call to explore if our appr…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 14 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 14 pages on codean.io and 8 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://codeanlabs.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Article, Organization, Person, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://codeanlabs.com/wp-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

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

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), 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 (660 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    /pricing, /category/research, /about and /services-ctf have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 5 internal pages checked

    We fetched 5 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 5 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • 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 5 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 6 small tap targets

    6 of 10 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 “Cannot use import statement outside a module”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix79
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://codeanlabs.com/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection (404).

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (59 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for codean.io and is valid for another 59 days.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://codean.io 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.

Domain and trust

4 checks passed
  • Domain is 3 years old

    3 years

    codeanlabs.com was registered in Jul 2023 through Cloudflare, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

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

  • DNSSEC is on

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

  • Registered until Jul 2027

    codeanlabs.com is registered until Jul 2027.

Content and conversion

1 to fix90
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 3 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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.

  • About 650 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 650 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Pricing” and “Book a call”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Pricing”, “Book a call” and “Schedule a 30-minute call”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Cloudflare Web Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

Email authentication

95
  • Email authentication score: 95/100

    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.

  • 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:_spf.omniasoft.network ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 1 other company contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 1 host run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
