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
Render-blocking requests
2.7 s42 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.7 s.
Mobile performance score: 45
45/100Your mobile performance score is 45. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
850 ms · 496 KiB56 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (496 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Freshchat, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.4 MB and 930 ms of main-thread time.
Freshchat adds 486 ms
486 msFreshchat costs a phone 486 ms of main-thread work and 875 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 CSS
450 ms · 102 KiBAbout 102 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
494 KiBAbout 494 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Main-thread work: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 287 ms
287 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 287 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 200 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Minify JavaScript
20 KiB20 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
18 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 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
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
66 internal links, 15 external
The homepage links to 66 pages on comodo.com and 15 external pages.
8 checks passed
Meta description: 145 characters
Your meta description is 145 characters: “Safeguard your devices with Comodo's advanced endpoint protection and protect your websites from malware and cyber thre…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Comprehensive Protection Optimized Performance One Price”.
Title: 55 characters
Your title is a healthy 55 characters: “Advanced Website Protection for Unmatched Cyber Defense”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.comodo.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Article, ImageObject, NewsArticle, Organization and Person.
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://www.comodo.com/page-sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
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 (781 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
/partners-deal.php declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
1 linked page hidden from search
/company-2 is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages without an H1
/platform/endpoint-security-bundles and /partners-deal.php have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
4 pages slow to respond
/antivirus-internet-security, /platform/dragon, /partners and /contact-us took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 32 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed

Best practices
1 small tap target
1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 third-party cookie
1 third-party cookie is 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: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.
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
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.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
6 links through redirect chains
6 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.comodo.com/platform/dragon/.
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 (comodo.com).
Valid certificate (19 days left)
The certificate from Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA OV R36 verifies for comodo.com and is valid for another 19 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://comodo.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 48 links work
All 48 links checked from your homepage (35 internal, 13 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
comodo.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
comodo.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 29 years old
29 yearscomodo.com was registered in Oct 1997 through Gandi SAS. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Oct 2027
comodo.com is registered until Oct 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.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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 opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 556 words of copy
The homepage carries about 556 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
8 calls to action
The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Sign Up Now” and “Buy Now”.

Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be comodo.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 ip4:162.255.26.211 include:spf1.comodo.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spf6.comodo.com include…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Klaviyo and 1 more (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.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
