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
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 708 KiB and 964 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56 (desktop: 69). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Google Tag Manager adds 622 ms
622 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 622 ms of main-thread work and 357 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 471 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 293 KiB22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (293 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 276 KiBAbout 276 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.
Main-thread work: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Facebook adds 252 ms
252 msFacebook costs a phone 252 ms of main-thread work and 282 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 34 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 34 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Improve image delivery
115 KiB6 images could be 115 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
22 KiBAbout 22 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.1 MB in 146 requests
2.1 MBYour homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 146 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (48), images 768 KiB (56) and fonts 118 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.58 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.58 g of CO₂e: 70.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
5 tap targets too small
5 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (3 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 83 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
55 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 55 pages on competitivecracker.com and 11 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 148 characters
Your meta description is 148 characters: “CC App-the Best Online Learning App for Competitive Exam Prep in Kerala. Get experts classes, mock tests, and study mat…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “ഈ വിദ്യാരംഭം CC LEARNING APP നൊപ്പം...”.
Title: 59 characters
Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Best Online Learning App for Competitive Exam Prep - CC App”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://competitivecracker.com/.
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://competitivecracker.com/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 (2,060 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
6 pages share a title
/student-corner/previous-question-papers, /student-corner/current-affairs, /student-corner/syllabus, /student-corner/video-class, /student-corner/answer-key and /student-corner/study-materials all use the title “Student Corner – Resources and Updates | Competitive Cracker”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages share a meta description
/student-corner/previous-question-papers, /student-corner/current-affairs, /student-corner/syllabus, /student-corner/video-class, /student-corner/answer-key and /student-corner/study-materials use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
4 pages without an H1
/results, /notifications, /career and /about have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
3 pages with very little text
/events, /notifications and /career have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 41 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed

Best practices
12 small tap targets
12 of 34 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
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://competitivecracker.com/results/Kerala-Set-Exam (404).
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.
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.
4 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (competitivecracker.com).
Valid certificate (41 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for competitivecracker.com and is valid for another 41 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://competitivecracker.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
competitivecracker.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
competitivecracker.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 9 years old
9 yearscompetitivecracker.com was registered in Aug 2017 through BigRock Solutions Ltd. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Aug 2028
competitivecracker.com is registered until Aug 2028.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 9 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.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 1,894 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,894 words of visible text.
7 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Register” and “JOIN NOW”.
7 calls to action
The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Register”, “JOIN NOW” and “JOIN CRASH BATCH NOW”.
2 short forms
2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
competitivecracker.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
competitivecracker.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.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 0/100
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.
Privacy and tracking

7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 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.
19 other companies contacted
