Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
350 ms · 8.9 MB47 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8.9 MB).
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 54). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 625 KiB6 images could be 625 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.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, userway.org and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.9 MB and 570 ms of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 440 ms
440 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 440 ms of main-thread work and 733 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
413 KiBAbout 413 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Main-thread work: 2.5 s
A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Fonts adds 0 ms
0 msGoogle Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 809 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.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 143 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
65 KiBAbout 65 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
18 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 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.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 18.3 s
18.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 5.6 s
5.6 sThe first text or image appears after 5.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 6.8 s
6.8 sYour largest element takes 6.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Who We Are”.
Speed Index: 9.7 s
9.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 205 ms
205 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 205 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
1 image without width and height
1 image 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.003
0.003The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.003, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 11.2 MB in 99 requests
11.2 MBYour homepage downloads 11.2 MB in 99 requests on a phone: media 7.5 MB (3), scripts 1.2 MB (31) and images 1.1 MB (18). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (75 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (36 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit
3.16 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.16 g of CO₂e: 379.6 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
autocomplete attribute must be used correctly (1 element)
autocomplete attribute must be used correctly: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (8 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 8 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.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 11 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (6 characters)
Your title is only 6 characters: “COMD |”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
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 (“Your Mission, Our Expertise” and “Start a Conversation”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
9 links with vague text
9 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
55 internal links, 2 external
The homepage links to 55 pages on comdcpa.com and 2 external pages.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.comdcpa.com/.
robots.txt in place

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.comdcpa.com/wp-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 (557 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 pages without a meta description
/about, /about/our-people, /about/history, /about/philosophy, /services and /services/auditing-and-accounting and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page slow to respond
/industries/schools took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 21 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices
4 small tap targets
4 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
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”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 insecure resource on an https page
1 resource load over plain http on your https page (for example http://www.comdcpa.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/COMD-Final-Logo-scaled-e1733427365242.gif); browsers block or warn about them.
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 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 (comdcpa.com).
Valid certificate (46 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for comdcpa.com and is valid for another 46 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
http:// redirects to https
http://comdcpa.com redirects to the secure version.
All 26 links work
All 26 links checked from your homepage (24 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
comdcpa.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
comdcpa.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 28 years old
28 yearscomdcpa.com was registered in Aug 1998 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Aug 2027
comdcpa.com is registered until Aug 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: 20 testimonial or review blocks. 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.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 565 words of copy
The homepage carries about 565 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
11 calls to action
The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Request For Proposals” and “Learn More”.
1 short form
A short form (5 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be comdcpa.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 75/100
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 with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 mx include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:03.email.flywheelsites.com include:sendgrid.net include:spf1.appri…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
1 cookie set on arrival
1Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).
11 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
