Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.3 s · 737 KiBAbout 737 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.3 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 38.3 MB60 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (38.3 MB).
Improve image delivery
2.1 MB8 images could be 2.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Adobe Tag Manager and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.8 MB and 817 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
550 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 80 KiBAbout 80 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 CDN adds 283 ms
283 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 283 ms of main-thread work and 736 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: 2.2 s
A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 195 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
29 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 29 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.

Server response: 26 ms
26 msYour server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 8.5 s
8.5 sThe first text or image appears after 8.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.5 s
8.5 sYour largest element takes 8.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “YOUR FLEET RUNS ON COMDATA®”.
Time to Interactive: 16.1 s
16.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.7 s
8.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.6 s
2.6 sReal visitors wait 2.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user TTFB: 929 ms
929 msReal visitors wait 929 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
23 images without width and height
23 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+6%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 152 ms to 164 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 41.0 MB in 134 requests
41.0 MBYour homepage downloads 41.0 MB in 134 requests on a phone: media 35.9 MB (4), images 2.8 MB (58) and scripts 1.6 MB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
173 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Bennett Logo_BFC_Standard Color 2.png at 4,052 px wide, shown at 178 px. Resized copies would save about 173 KiB.
6 images below the first screen load straight away
6 images further down the page (328 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images in older formats
2 images (211 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 11.6 g of CO₂ per visit
11.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 11.61 g of CO₂e: 1393.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
9 text elements with low contrast
9 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Links look like plain text
2 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (2 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
13 images without alt text
13 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 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 (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 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 (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 10 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (74 characters)
Your title is 74 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Truck Fleet Management | Fleet Fuel, Permits, and Taxes | Comdata Trucking”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
12 links with vague text
12 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
70 internal links, 28 external
The homepage links to 70 pages on comdata.com and 28 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 159 characters
Your meta description is 159 characters: “For more than 50 years, Comdata has powered over-the-road fleet owners, owner-operators, and drivers to stay compliant,…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Your fleet runs on Comdata®”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.comdata.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization.
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.comdata.com/sitemap.xml/.
AI search readiness
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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,691 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a title
/terms/comdata-simple-saver has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
/applications/comdata-simple-saver-1156 is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages without a meta description
/applications/comdata-simple-saver-1156 and /terms/comdata-simple-saver have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
/terms/comdata-simple-saver has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 23 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 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.
Titles are unique
Every page we checked has its own title.
Best practices
41 small tap targets
41 of 55 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
4 third-party cookies
4 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
3 JavaScript errors while loading
3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 broken link to your own pages
1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://www.comdata.com/ev/ (404).
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://permits.comdata.com/permitservices/.
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.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (comdata.com).
Valid certificate (44 days left)
The certificate from Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA OV R36 verifies for comdata.com and is valid for another 44 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.
http:// redirects to https
http://comdata.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
comdata.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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 32 years old
32 yearscomdata.com was registered in Mar 1994 through GoDaddy Corporate Domains, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only letsencrypt.org, globalsign.com, digicert.com and sectigo.com to issue certificates for comdata.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Mar 2029
comdata.com is registered until Mar 2029.
Content and conversion
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.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
A 9-field form
Your longest form asks for 9 fields (8 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 1,051 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,051 words of visible text.
5 checks passed

Email authentication
Email authentication score: 90/100
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: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 exists:%{i}._i.%{d}._d.espf.agari-dns.net include:%{d}.97.spf-protect.agari-dns.net -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
