Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
4.2 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.2 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 1.7 MB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.7 MB).
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 72). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
985 KiB8 images could be 985 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 357 KiBAbout 357 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and iubenda and others), adding 1.2 MB and 699 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 371 ms
371 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 371 ms of main-thread work and 393 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: 2.0 s
A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Fonts adds 0 ms
0 msGoogle Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 447 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 171 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
25 KiBAbout 25 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 71 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 71 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (15), scripts 1.2 MB (25) and fonts 559 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
8 images in older formats
8 images (1.2 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.
5 images far larger than shown
474 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Hero_Chi-siamo_directa_gruppo_musicisti_Torino.jpg at 1,214 px wide, shown at 260 px. Resized copies would save about 474 KiB.
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (723 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.95 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.95 g of CO₂e: 113.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
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.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 15 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 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 2 failed. 2 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.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
113 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 113 pages on directa.it and 9 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 142 characters
Your meta description is 142 characters: “Directa SIM: piattaforme professionali per trading online e investimenti, Commissioni competitive, strumenti avanzati e…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Diventa il protagonista dei tuoi investimenti”.
Title: 49 characters
Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “Directa SIM: Broker Trading Online | Investimenti”.
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://www.directa.it/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
robots.txt blocks 1 AI answer engine crawler
1 of 6Your robots.txt shuts out Perplexity (PerplexityBot). These fetch pages to answer people's questions and cite the source, so your site can't be quoted or linked in those answers.
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.
Opted out of AI training for 3 crawlers
robots.txt blocks GPTBot, Google-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers.
1 checks passed
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (870 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
15 of 17 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 broken external link
1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://www.linkedin.com/company/directa-sim (404).
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HTTP/1.1 only
The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.
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://instagram.com/directasim/.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
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.

Domain and trust
No CAA record
directa.it 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.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No form on the homepage

SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 ip4:213.92.13.51/32 ip4:213.92.13.120/32 ip4:213.92.13.121/32 ip4:83.103.109.245/32 include:spf.mandrillapp.com …”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (iubenda) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
