Live view · interaction off

Speed

11 to fix48
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    9.6 s · 1.6 MB

    About 1.6 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 9.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    3.9 s · 4.1 MB

    22 images could be 4.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 48

    48/100

    Your mobile performance score is 48 (desktop: 56). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 7.5 MB and 747 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 80 KiB

    About 80 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • website-media.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    website-media.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 4.6 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.

  • Google CDN adds 343 ms

    343 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 343 ms of main-thread work and 733 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: 3.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • apigateway.co adds 91 ms

    91 ms

    apigateway.co costs a phone 91 ms of main-thread work and 1.5 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 168 ms

    168 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 168 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 11 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (11 KiB).

  • 18 long tasks on the main thread

    18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 155 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

  • Forced reflow

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

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 33 ms

    33 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 33 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix50
  • 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.

  • First Contentful Paint: 14.3 s

    14.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 14.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 28.1 s

    28.1 s

    Your largest element takes 28.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “D3 is a Full-Service Modern Digital Marketing Agency Driven…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 28.5 s

    28.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 28.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 14.3 s

    14.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 14.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    Real visitors wait 2.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 320 ms

    320 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 320 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 15% slower for real visitors

    +15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 71 ms to 93 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

3 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.06

    0.06

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.06 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

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

    -10%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 2.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.02

    0.02

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.02, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 8.4 MB in 105 requests

    8.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.4 MB in 105 requests on a phone: images 4.6 MB (27), scripts 2.9 MB (43) and other files 423 KiB (15). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    monitor-d3-homepage-jolly-roger-park-2026-768x644.png weighs 558 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 20 images in older formats

    20 images (4.4 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.

  • 20 images below the first screen load straight away

    20 images further down the page (4.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.37 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.37 g of CO₂e: 284.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8088
  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links must have discernible text (2 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 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 (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 7 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h6, h3 → h5 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 41 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 8 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9288
  • Title is long (154 characters)

    Your title is 154 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “D3 Digital Marketing Agency | Full-Service Marketing Experts in Ocean City & Salisbury, M…”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 5 links crawlers can't follow

    5 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 74 internal links, 27 external

    The homepage links to 74 pages on d3corp.com and 27 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 156 characters

    Your meta description is 156 characters: “D3, a full service digital marketing agency based in OCMD & Salisbury, MD, serves clients regionally with web design, d…”.

  • One H1 headline

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

3 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 (2,633 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (7 KiB, 44 links, though it should open with a “# Title” line), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix93
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /testimonials is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 49 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

Best practices

Google 96100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    32 of 33 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.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://visitoceancity.com/.

  • 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 (d3corp.com).

  • Valid certificate (72 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for d3corp.com and is valid for another 72 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://d3corp.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 60 links work

    All 60 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 20 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    d3corp.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

    d3corp.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 22 years old

    22 years

    d3corp.com was registered in Feb 2004 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Feb 2027

    d3corp.com is registered until Feb 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • 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.

  • A 8-field form

    Your longest form asks for 8 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • 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 3,356 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 3,356 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “REQUEST A QUOTE”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “REQUEST A QUOTE”, “Join Our Team” and “Contact Us”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 101 testimonial or review blocks, 9 customer or partner logos and “more than 65,000 patients”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be d3corp.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • Email authentication score: 70/100

    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.

2 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 mx a ptr include:email.freshdesk.com include:_spf.google.com include:_spf.emailcampaigns.net include:emailsrvr.c…”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    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.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 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.

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
