Speed

8 to fix53
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.4 s · 734 KiB

    About 734 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 1.0 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.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and Clarity and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 53

    53/100

    Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 40 KiB

    About 40 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 290 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 107 KiB

    8 images could be 107 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 102 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (102 KiB).

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    8 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.6 s

    13.6 s

    Your largest element takes 13.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 16.6 s

    16.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 611 ms

    611 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 611 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 73% slower for real visitors

    +73%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 3.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 15 images without width and height

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

2 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 101 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 101 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (32), images 1.2 MB (32) and fonts 194 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (128 KiB) 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.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.80 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.80 g of CO₂e: 96.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • 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

6 to fixGoogle 7089
  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 28 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 10 images without alt text

    10 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 4 links without text

    4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 6 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 7791
  • Meta description is long (164 characters)

    Your meta description is 164 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 11 links with vague text

    11 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 118 internal links, 22 external

    The homepage links to 118 pages on dga.com and 22 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Your Business Deserves the Very Best Protection. You Deserve Exceptional Support.”.

  • Title: 53 characters

    Your title is a healthy 53 characters: “DGA | Commercial Security and Fire Systems Specialist”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.dga.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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.dga.com/page-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,424 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 2 pages without an H1

    /contact and /free-consultation have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 37 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.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 10078
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=56306638&Ver=2&mid=ad843233-3166-4798-b21e-55b108d2f515&bo=1&sid=e3506cd0d43011f1a72859ab32d510f5&vid=e3509d80d43011f19cc07baac3e5286c&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=918639831&lg.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.8.2/css/all.css' from origin 'https://www.dga.com'…”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    40 of 41 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix79
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://dga.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • 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.

  • No Referrer-Policy

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

  • No security.txt

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

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (dga.com).

  • Valid certificate (127 days left)

    The certificate from GoDaddy.com, Inc. · Go Daddy Secure Certificate Authority - G2 verifies for dga.com and is valid for another 127 days.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 53 links work

    All 53 links checked from your homepage (38 internal, 15 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    dga.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

    dga.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 31 years old

    31 years

    dga.com was registered in Dec 1994 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Dec 2029

    dga.com is registered until Dec 2029.

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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 19 testimonial or review blocks. 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 1,358 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,358 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: “Contact” and “GET A FREE CONSULTATION”.

  • 20 calls to action

    The homepage has 20 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Get a Free Consultation” and “Learn More”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

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

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    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: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 ip4:205.178.160.180 ip4:198.17.112.131 ip4:198.17.112.250 include:spf.smtp2go.com include:amazonses.com include:…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “k2” and “hs1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Microsoft Ads and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

    A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.
