erbgroup.com website review

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.

5 images could be 2.1 MB 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.

Your mobile performance score is 64 (desktop: 67). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 119 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

8 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

About 25 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, cdn-cookieyes.com and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 324 KiB and 134 ms of main-thread time.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 78 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Your largest element takes 11.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “NORTH AMERICA'S LEADING REFRIGERATED TRANSPORTATION SPECIAL…”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 11.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 84 ms to 93 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 10.2 MB in 59 requests on a phone: images 9.7 MB (24), scripts 326 KiB (15) and fonts 116 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

6 images weigh 7.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example DSC_0264_small.png at 1,312 px wide, shown at 370 px. Resized copies would save about 2.6 MB.

11 images further down the page (5.7 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

6 images (2.1 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.90 g of CO₂e: 347.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 73 pages on erbgroup.com and 18 external pages.

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.

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.

/ and /fr all use the title “The Erb Group | Canada & US Refrigerated Transport Services”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

/services/direct-store-delivery has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /faq, whose canonical is /faq-v2. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 23 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://erbinteractive.com/.

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

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

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

erbgroup.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

erbgroup.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.

erbgroup.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.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 327 words of visible text.

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.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
