One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

10 to fix44
  • Improve image delivery

    3.1 s · 4.5 MB

    43 images could be 4.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.4 s · 902 KiB

    About 902 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 44

    44/100

    Your mobile performance score is 44 (desktop: 58). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 3,639 HTML elements

    The page has 3,639 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Clarity and others), adding 1.8 MB and 843 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    590 ms · 93 KiB

    About 93 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 590 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 337 ms

    337 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 337 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 237 ms

    237 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 237 ms of main-thread work and 318 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 123 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 72 KiB

    10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (72 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    50 ms · 11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    19 KiB

    19 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 26 ms

    26 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix33
  • 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.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.40

    0.40

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.40 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 3.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors wait 2.6 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 24.3 s

    24.3 s

    Your largest element takes 24.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Glass Rinser”.

  • Time to Interactive: 25.1 s

    25.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.6 s

    9.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    Real visitors wait 3.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.235

    0.235

    The layout shifts by 0.235 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 22 images without width and height

    22 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 97 ms to 94 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 10% slower for real visitors

    +10%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.7 s to 3.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 95 ms

    95 ms

    Real visitors wait 95 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 186 ms

    186 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 186 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 7.5 MB in 124 requests

    7.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.5 MB in 124 requests on a phone: images 5.1 MB (69), scripts 1.7 MB (19) and other files 368 KiB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    tafo_logo_lg_1000.jpeg weighs 725 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 9 images far larger than shown

    1.0 MB

    9 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example tafo_logo_lg_1000.jpeg at 1,000 px wide, shown at 150 px. Resized copies would save about 1.0 MB.

  • 21 images in older formats

    21 images (2.9 MB) 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.

  • 21 images below the first screen load straight away

    21 images further down the page (2.7 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.13 g of CO₂e: 256.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

11 to fixGoogle 8087
  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 8 text elements with low contrast

    8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (56 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 56 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 12 form fields without a label

    12 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 5 links without text

    5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • ARIA input fields do not have accessible names

    ARIA input fields do not have accessible names (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 9269
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • Meta description is long (186 characters)

    Your meta description is 186 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 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.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.componenthardware.com/en/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 4 links with vague text

    4 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.

  • 517 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 517 pages on componenthardware.com and 6 external pages.

2 checks passed
  • Title: 55 characters

    Your title is a healthy 55 characters: “Component Hardware - Industrial Components & Assemblies”.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 (1,803 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix86
  • 2 pages share a title

    /en and / all use the title “Component Hardware - Industrial Components & Assemblies”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 5 pages share a meta description

    /, /en/compareproducts, /en/wishlist, /en/custom-solutions and /en/blog use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 page without an H1

    / has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 9 pages slow to respond

    /, /en/compareproducts, /en/wishlist, /en/custom-solutions, /en/our-markets and /en/why-us and 3 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 197 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 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.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 14 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9297
  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    245 of 255 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • 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.

  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://componenthardware.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.componenthardware.com/en/customer/info.

  • 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 (componenthardware.com).

  • Valid certificate (155 days left)

    The certificate from DigiCert Inc · GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1 verifies for componenthardware.com and is valid for another 155 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://componenthardware.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 46 links work

    All 46 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 6 external) answered without errors; 7 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    componenthardware.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

    componenthardware.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 years

    componenthardware.com was registered in Mar 1997 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Mar 2027

    componenthardware.com is registered until Mar 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 28 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • 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 1,283 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,283 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “CONTACT”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Register”, “Contact” and “LEARN MORE”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar and LinkedIn Insight.

Email authentication

100
  • Email authentication score: 100/100

    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: reject

    DMARC tells receivers to reject 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 include:_spf.mlsend.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spf.usaepay.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and LinkedIn Insight 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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 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.

  • 21 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 21 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
