Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 74
74/100Your mobile performance score is 74 (desktop: 75). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 108 KiBAbout 108 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 68 KiBAbout 68 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
1,721 HTML elements
The page has 1,721 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, drda.io and cdn-cookieyes.com and others), adding 302 KiB and 191 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 97 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
50 ms · 33 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (33 KiB).
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.6 s

Images and page weight
About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.19 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.19 g of CO₂e: 22.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 673 KiB in 60 requests
673 KiBYour homepage downloads 673 KiB in 60 requests on a phone: scripts 292 KiB (14), stylesheets 190 KiB (10) and fonts 108 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 36 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (252 characters)
Your meta description is 252 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
63 internal links, 21 external
The homepage links to 63 pages on codefresh.io and 21 external pages.
7 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Codefresh and Octopus”.
Title: 45 characters
Your title is a healthy 45 characters: “Codefresh and Octopus Deploy - Octopus Deploy”.
Canonical URL set

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://octopus.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.
3 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 (537 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (195 KiB, 1,069 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
/downloads/compare and /integrations have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 39 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
6 checks passed

Security and trust
4 broken links to your own pages

1 broken external link
1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://billing.octopus.com/ (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.
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 30 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
2 links through redirect chains
