ctofraction.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 80. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

About 68 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (29 KiB).

2 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics), adding 158 KiB and 147 ms of main-thread time.

2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 94 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 90 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

Polyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 4.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Accelerate Your Growth with a Fractional CTO Book a Free Co…”.

Visually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 4.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.15 g of CO₂e: 18.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 20 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

The homepage links to 16 pages on ctofraction.com and 1 external page.

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.

/about, /blog, /contact and /meet have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

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

/contact and /meet 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.

We fetched 5 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/lazargintchin/ (999).

No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

ctofraction.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

ctofraction.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.

ctofraction.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.

Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

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

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,804 words of visible text.

ctofraction.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.

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: 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.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.

Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
