Speed

11 to fix47
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.2 s · 3.3 MB

    102 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.3 MB).

  • hcaptcha.com adds 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    hcaptcha.com costs a phone 1.8 s of main-thread work and 1.2 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

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

  • Mobile performance score: 47

    47/100

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

  • Main-thread work: 5.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 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 (hcaptcha.com, Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 987 KiB

    19 images could be 987 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 277 KiB

    About 277 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 18 long tasks on the main thread

    18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 520 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 26 KiB

    About 26 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1,780 HTML elements

    The page has 1,780 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    24 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 35 ms

    35 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 35 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix47
  • Time to Interactive: 24.8 s

    24.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 24.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    Your largest element takes 6.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 8.5 s

    8.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 851 ms

    851 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 851 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.007

    0.007

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.007, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 4.9 MB in 125 requests

    4.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.9 MB in 125 requests on a phone: images 2.4 MB (76), scripts 1.7 MB (24) and HTML 463 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 34 images in older formats

    34 images (1.7 MB) 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.

  • 32 images below the first screen load straight away

    32 images further down the page (1.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.38 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.38 g of CO₂e: 165.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 9193
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 57 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (33 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 33 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.

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 74 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8591
  • 27 links with vague text

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

  • Meta description is long (232 characters)

    Your meta description is 232 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 10 links crawlers can't follow

    10 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 152 internal links, 22 external

    The homepage links to 152 pages on codertal.com and 22 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “codertal”.

  • Title: 36 characters

    Your title is a healthy 36 characters: “codertal - Hire on-demand developers”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://codertal.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

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.

  • 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 (2,896 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 47 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 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

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 7376
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.cdnlogo.com/logos/s/76/scrum.svg.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“The Protected Audience API is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.”).

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE.NotSameOrigin”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    9 of 10 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix75
  • 8 broken external links

    8 links to other sites are dead, for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/mirceasoit/ (999).

  • 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.

  • HTTP/1.1 only

    The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.

  • 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 security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

3 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (68 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for codertal.com and is valid for another 68 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://codertal.com redirects to the secure version.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    codertal.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

    codertal.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 5 years old

    5 years

    codertal.com was registered in Aug 2021 through Tucows Domains Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Aug 2027

    codertal.com is registered until Aug 2027.

Content and conversion

100
  • 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 1,006 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,006 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: “CALL US”.

  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Call Us” and “How is pricing structured?”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (5 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 57 testimonial or review blocks and 26 customer or partner logos.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 19 phone links and 19 email links.

Email authentication

2 to fix10
  • No DMARC policy

    codertal.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

  • No SPF record

    codertal.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.

  • Email authentication score: 10/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

  • The footer still says © 2025.
  • 2 plugins are behind their latest release.raratheme-companion 1.4.3 → 1.4.4 · newsletter 9.1.2 → 9.5.3
