Render-blocking requests
4.6 s96 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.6 s.
Main-thread work: 5.5 s
A phone's processor spends 5.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
2.8 MB17 images could be 2.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 752 KiBAbout 752 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 110 KiBAbout 110 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 593 ms
593 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 593 ms of main-thread work and 623 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.
Facebook adds 274 ms
274 msFacebook costs a phone 274 ms of main-thread work and 223 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.
19 long tasks on the main thread
19 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 263 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
232 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (232 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
94 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 94 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
18 KiB18 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
9 KiB9 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.

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.
Time to Interactive: 16.3 s
16.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 10.1 s
10.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 10.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.1 s
4.1 sThe first text or image appears after 4.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 819 ms
819 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 819 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.1 s
4.1 sYour largest element takes 4.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Celebrating Community Action Month and 60 Years of Communit…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.3 s).
Real-user FCP: 1.9 s
1.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 979 ms
979 msReal visitors wait 979 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
10 images without width and height
10 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 13% slower for real visitors
+13%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 132 ms to 147 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.7 MB in 253 requests
6.7 MBYour homepage downloads 6.7 MB in 253 requests on a phone: images 4.4 MB (42), scripts 1.9 MB (97) and stylesheets 337 KiB (94). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
332 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example uwmbNEW_logo_localized_vert_4c.jpg at 1,800 px wide, shown at 161 px. Resized copies would save about 332 KiB.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (379 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
3 images in older formats
3 images (433 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 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit
1.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.91 g of CO₂e: 229.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Links look like plain text
3 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (24 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 24 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.
Elements with role="dialog" or role="alertdialog" do not have accessible names.
Elements with role="dialog" or role="alertdialog" do not have accessible names. (1 element).
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 25 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 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
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Celebrating Community Action Month and 60 Years o…” and “Celebrating Community Action Month and 60 Years o…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
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.
108 internal links, 28 external
The homepage links to 108 pages on commteam.org and 28 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 120 characters
Your meta description is 120 characters: “We mobilize resources for low-income people, providing opportunities for them to achieve stability and self-sufficiency.”.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.commteam.org/sitemap_index.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 https://www.commteam.org/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 (778 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
14 pages without a meta description
https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/about-us, https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/leadership, https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/advocacy, https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/advocacy/immigration-and-refugees, https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/impact-stories and https://www.commteam.org/our-organization/careers and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
