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, insent.ai and Facebook and others), adding 2.9 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 1.4 MBAbout 1.4 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
882 KiB33 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (882 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 648 ms
648 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 648 ms of main-thread work and 671 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.
insent.ai adds 557 ms
557 msinsent.ai costs a phone 557 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.
Facebook adds 424 ms
424 msFacebook costs a phone 424 ms of main-thread work and 560 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.
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 306 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
posthog.com adds 238 ms
238 msposthog.com costs a phone 238 ms of main-thread work and 337 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.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 30 KiB2 images could be 30 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
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.

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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 324 words of copy
The homepage carries about 324 words of visible text.
4 checks passed

DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 mx include:us._netblocks.mimecast.com include:amazonses.com include:_spf.salesforce.com include:_spf.atlassian.n…”.
