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
2.5 s41 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 1.4 MBAbout 1.4 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Google Tag Manager and Hubspot and others), adding 3.2 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
765 KiB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (765 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 493 ms
493 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 493 ms of main-thread work and 1.4 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.
Facebook adds 504 ms
504 msFacebook costs a phone 504 ms of main-thread work and 715 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.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 66 KiB3 images could be 66 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
leadconnectorhq.com adds 70 ms
70 msleadconnectorhq.com costs a phone 70 ms of main-thread work and 888 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 · 54 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 54 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
15 long tasks on the main thread
15 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 178 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
30 KiBAbout 30 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.5 MB in 259 requests
5.5 MBYour homepage downloads 5.5 MB in 259 requests on a phone: scripts 3.5 MB (142), other files 631 KiB (30) and HTML 473 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (37 KiB) is 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.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (61 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit
1.57 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.57 g of CO₂e: 188.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed

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

39 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: 39 passed and 8 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Best practices
1 third-party cookie
1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
6 JavaScript errors while loading
6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to font at 'https://praxistlnstg.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/elementor/google-fonts/fonts/sofiasans-y…”.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
10 of 11 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
5 broken external links
5 links to other sites are dead, for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/mitchbroderick/ (999).
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 Referrer-Policy

No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt

4 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (joinpraxis.com).
Valid certificate (44 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for discoverpraxis.com and is valid for another 44 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://discoverpraxis.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 37 days
joinpraxis.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
No CAA record
joinpraxis.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

1 checks passed
Domain is 1 year old
1 yearjoinpraxis.com was registered in Dec 2024 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof

An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com -all”.
