Speed

11 to fix55
  • loom.com adds 6.8 s

    6.8 s

    loom.com costs a phone 6.8 s of main-thread work and 11.4 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Main-thread work: 16.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 16.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 10.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (loom.com, Vimeo and Embedly and others), adding 16.8 MB and 8.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    170 ms · 7.4 MB

    About 7.4 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 170 ms faster on a phone.

  • Vimeo adds 689 ms

    689 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 689 ms of main-thread work and 3.1 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Embedly adds 560 ms

    560 ms

    Embedly costs a phone 560 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    612 KiB

    30 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (612 KiB).

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 486 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.

  • Vidyard adds 133 ms

    133 ms

    Vidyard costs a phone 133 ms of main-thread work and 509 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

    150 ms · 103 KiB

    About 103 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    85 KiB

    1 image could be 85 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    25 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 25 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    12 KiB

    12 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.

  • Server response: 36 ms

    36 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 36 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix64
  • Speed Index: 27.4 s

    27.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 27.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 89.0 s

    89.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 89.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 3.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 11 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

2 checks passed
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.5 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “We'll Rewrite Your Vague Landing Page Into A Clear One In 7…”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 17.5 MB in 422 requests

    17.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 17.5 MB in 422 requests on a phone: scripts 12.4 MB (143), HTML 1.4 MB (29) and media 1.3 MB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    76 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 5b0b02d54e359c4fbb30119f_Photo.png at 286 px wide, shown at 32 px. Resized copies would save about 76 KiB.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (85 KiB) is 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 5.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    4.96 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.96 g of CO₂e: 595.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8889
  • 15 text elements with low contrast

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

  • <html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

    <html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (44 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 44 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails 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.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h3 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 46 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 33 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 40 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 33 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 10075
  • Title is long (73 characters)

    Your title is 73 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “We'll Rewrite Your SaaS Landing Page Into A High Converting One In 7 Days”.

  • No structured data

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

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“We'll Rewrite Your Vague Landing Page Into A Clea…” and “"What's The Deliverable? I Want To See Examples!"”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 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 (213 characters)

    Your meta description is 213 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 13 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 13 pages on cortes.design and 7 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • 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.cortes.design/sitemap.xml.

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 https://www.cortes.design/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 (1,488 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix86
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.cortes.design/cheatsheet and https://www.cortes.design/saas-landing-page-cheatsheet all use the title “The SaaS Landing page Cheatsheet (step-by-step formula)”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://www.cortes.design/cheatsheet and https://www.cortes.design/saas-landing-page-cheatsheet use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://www.cortes.design/blog and https://www.cortes.design/partner have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.cortes.design/apply-consultation has 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.

  • 2 pages slow to respond

    https://www.cortes.design/cheatsheet and https://www.cortes.design/partner took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 7 internal pages checked

    We fetched 7 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 7 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 7 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 7 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 5086
  • 4 third-party cookies

    4 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Error occurred when trying to fetch the Feature Gates client values, error: signal timed out”.

  • 1 distorted image

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

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    5 of 5 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • About 1,327 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,327 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Order Your Project” and “Book a Free Call”.

  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Pricing”, “Book a Free Call” and “Order Your Project”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 145 testimonial or review blocks and 13 customer or partner logos.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Plausible and Umami.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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, 5 of them by other companies (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.

  • 25 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 25 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at cortes.design, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
