esslsecurity.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
9.3 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 9.3 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.4 s · 5.1 MB41 images could be 5.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56 (desktop: 51). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 2.2 MB and 721 ms of main-thread time.
YouTube adds 623 ms
623 msYouTube costs a phone 623 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 450 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 99 KiBAbout 99 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.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 121 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1 KiB).
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.9 s
A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 20.0 s
20.0 sYour largest element takes 20.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “eSSL NSDL Registered Biometric Device”.
Time to Interactive: 34.3 s
34.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 34.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 12.8 s
12.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 12.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 6.0 s
6.0 sThe first text or image appears after 6.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 916 ms
916 msReal visitors wait 916 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
88 images without width and height
88 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 117 ms to 119 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Total Blocking Time: 51 ms

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.8 MB in 87 requests
7.8 MBYour homepage downloads 7.8 MB in 87 requests on a phone: images 5.4 MB (48), scripts 1.9 MB (13) and stylesheets 173 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images over 500 KB
5 images weigh 4.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
6 images far larger than shown
4.2 MB6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Expo-1.jpg at 3,508 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 4.2 MB.
6 images in older formats
6 images (4.9 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.
13 images below the first screen load straight away
13 images further down the page (287 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit
2.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.21 g of CO₂e: 265.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
8 tap targets too small
8 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
44 images without alt text
44 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 checks passed
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 10 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (67 characters)
Your title is 67 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Biometric Attendance & Access Control Systems India | eSSL Security”.
342 internal links, 15 external
The homepage links to 342 pages on esslsecurity.com and 15 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 158 characters
Your meta description is 158 characters: “India’s most trusted biometric brand since 2002. Fingerprint attendance, face recognition & access control solutions fo…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://esslsecurity.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization 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://esslsecurity.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (705 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
4 pages without a meta description
/hid, /nfc, /software-integration and /fingerprint/vegawpoe have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
12 pages without an H1
/hid, /nfc, /software-integration, /careers, /contactus and /fingerprint/x990 and 6 others 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 199 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

Best practices
8 small tap targets
8 of 16 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
5 third-party cookies
5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
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.youtube.com/@esslsecurity (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.
1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://facebook.com/esslsecurity/.
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.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (esslsecurity.com).
Valid certificate (43 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for esslsecurity.com and is valid for another 43 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://esslsecurity.com redirects to the secure version.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
esslsecurity.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
esslsecurity.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 13 years old
13 yearsesslsecurity.com was registered in Aug 2013 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Aug 2031
esslsecurity.com is registered until Aug 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.
Only about 227 words
The homepage has only about 227 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
7 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact Us”.
2 calls to action
The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Subscribe”.
2 short forms

Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 68 trust badges and “0 + Happy Customers”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 2 email links.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be esslsecurity.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 75/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:_spf.google.com -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google” and “mail”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.
11 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Upkeep, stack and company
No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
