dashlane.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Avoid multiple page redirects
8.7 sThe page goes through 1 redirect before it starts loading, costing about 8.7 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.8 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.8 s faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.4 s
1.4 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 706 KiB 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.
Mobile performance score: 29
29/100Your mobile performance score is 29. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.2 s
A phone's processor spends 9.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.8 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 (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1.0 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.5 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Facebook adds 333 ms
333 msFacebook costs a phone 333 ms of main-thread work and 224 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
321 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (321 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
50 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 50 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Duplicated JavaScript
14 KiB14 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Improve image delivery
12 KiB2 images could be 12 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.4 MB in 163 requests
5.4 MBYour homepage downloads 5.4 MB in 163 requests on a phone: scripts 3.1 MB (46), fonts 688 KiB (12) and other files 609 KiB (43). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
image is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.54 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.54 g of CO₂e: 185.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (2 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 69 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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 (“Prevent credential breaches” and “Committed to compliance”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
74 internal links, 18 external
The homepage links to 74 pages on dashlane.com and 18 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 107 characters
Your meta description is 107 characters: “Top-rated password manager and credential protection solution for enterprises, businesses, and individuals.”.

XML sitemap found

AI search readiness
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.
Parts of the site are closed to 3 AI crawlers
Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.
2 checks passed
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (803 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (7 KiB, 21 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without an H1
/download has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/download 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.

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
No risk reducer

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.google.com include:spf2.dashlane.com include:mail.zendesk.com include:mktomail.com include:mg-spf.g…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “selector1” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
