Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 1.5 MB75 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 342 KiBAbout 342 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 31
31/100Your mobile performance score is 31 (desktop: 80). 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 Tag Manager, Google Maps and srcspot.com and others), adding 855 KiB and 646 ms of main-thread time.
Font display
650 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 650 ms).
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 227 KiB19 images could be 227 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 64 KiBAbout 64 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 401 ms
401 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 401 ms of main-thread work and 498 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 134 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 80 but mobile only 31. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 805 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 27 ms
27 msYour server sent the HTML in 27 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.4 s
14.4 sYour largest element takes 14.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “WE CARRY WHAT MATTERS”.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 1
1The layout shifts by 1 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Time to Interactive: 14.7 s
14.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.6 s
7.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.6 s
3.6 sThe first text or image appears after 3.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
87 images without width and height
87 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Total Blocking Time: 251 ms
251 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 251 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
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.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 101 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 101 requests on a phone: images 1.4 MB (67), scripts 916 KiB (16) and fonts 179 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.72 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.72 g of CO₂e: 86.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
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.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

Every image has alt text
All 45 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (72 characters)
Your title is 72 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Leading Manufacturer of Highly Engineered Components and Systems | DexKo”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
5 H1 headlines
There are 5 <h1> headlines (“We Carry What Matters”, “We Carry What Matters” and “We Carry What Matters”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (208 characters)
Your meta description is 208 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
116 internal links, 8 external
The homepage links to 116 pages on dexko.com and 8 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.dexko.com/.
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.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://dexko.com/sitemap.xml.
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.
No llms.txt
There is no /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 (825 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a title
/about-us/acquisitions has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 page without a meta description
/about-us/acquisitions has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
/about-us/acquisitions has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Security and trust
No Permissions-Policy

Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
8 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (dexko.com).
Valid certificate (47 days left)
The certificate from DigiCert Inc · GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1 verifies for dexko.com and is valid for another 47 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://dexko.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 48 links work
All 48 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 8 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
dexko.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
dexko.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 11 years old
11 yearsdexko.com was registered in Sep 2015 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Sep 2031
dexko.com is registered until Sep 2031.
Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 753 words of copy
The homepage carries about 753 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: “Learn more”.
4 calls to action

2 short forms
2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 100/100
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.
3 checks passed
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 ip4:45.62.178.137 ip4:45.62.179.60 ip4:185.114.121.114 ip4:35.80.141.6 ip4:44.229.121.55 ip4:148.59.100.16/28 in…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight (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.
5 cookies set on arrival
5Opening the homepage sets 5 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.
12 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 12 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
