exechq.com website review

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 1.1 s).

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 750 ms.

About 571 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

6 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Other Google APIs/SDKs and WordPress Site Stats and others), adding 1.2 MB and 345 ms of main-thread time.

YouTube costs a phone 332 ms of main-thread work and 983 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.

About 122 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 113 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

3 images could be 19 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

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

The page becomes fully interactive after 13.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Your homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 65 requests on a phone: images 2.7 MB (15), scripts 1.0 MB (22) and fonts 339 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.20 g of CO₂e: 144.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 49 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

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

Headings should not be empty: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

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

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 13 characters: “Home - ExecHQ”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

There are 5 <h1> headlines (“Profitability Under Pressure”, “Diversifying Portfolios in Uncertain Markets” and “Navigating the Maturity Wall”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

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

The homepage links to 78 pages on exechq.com and 2 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.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 44 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

On a 390 px-wide phone the page scrolls sideways, a sign that something is wider than the screen.

5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “$.each is not a function”.

The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.

Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

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.

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.

exechq.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.

exechq.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.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

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.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

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

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

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 1,341 words of visible text.

DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be exechq.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

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 Ads and HubSpot (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.

Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
