Speed
Improve image delivery
14.8 s · 8.8 MB4 images could be 8.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 14.8 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.0 s · 1.2 MBAbout 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
3.4 s · 1.4 MB60 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.4 MB).
hsappstatic.net adds 1.4 s
1.4 shsappstatic.net costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 2.6 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
1.0 s · 151 KiBAbout 151 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 33
33/100Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.4 s
A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (hsappstatic.net, Hubspot and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 3.5 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 432 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Hubspot adds 251 ms
251 msHubspot costs a phone 251 ms of main-thread work and 382 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.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
Duplicated JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 10.6 s
10.6 sThe first text or image appears after 10.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 49.5 s
49.5 sYour largest element takes 49.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “hero_image”.
Speed Index: 22.0 s
22.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 22.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 55.1 s
55.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 55.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 992 ms
992 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 992 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
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.
1 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 13.1 MB in 148 requests
13.1 MBYour homepage downloads 13.1 MB in 148 requests on a phone: images 9.0 MB (15), scripts 2.8 MB (64) and fonts 852 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 7.7 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
2 images far larger than shown
7.5 MB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example chase-chappell-ZzsQ3I2h88U-unsplash.jpg at 5,635 px wide, shown at 310 px. Resized copies would save about 7.5 MB.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (7.7 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image in older formats
1 image (2.2 MB) 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.
About 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit
3.70 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.70 g of CO₂e: 444.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
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.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h5 and h1 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 17 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 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: 41 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (19 characters)
Your title is only 19 characters: “Grow With Exemplify”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
6 H1 headlines
There are 6 <h1> headlines (“We Make HubSpot Work For Your Business”, “We Make HubSpot Work For Saas” and “Our Services”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
28 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 28 pages on exemplify.com.au and 0 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 131 characters
Your meta description is 131 characters: “Exemplify is a Platinum HubSpot partner helping SaaS businesses unlock revenue with tailored onboarding and optimisatio…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.exemplify.com.au/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization.
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.exemplify.com.au/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
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.
2 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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (850 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to /hubspot-for-saas-2, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
/home-v2 declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and /home-v2 all use the title “Grow With Exemplify”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page without an H1
/contact-us has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/contact-us has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
9 internal pages checked
We fetched 9 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed
Every page has a meta description
All 8 pages that loaded have a meta description.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 8 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
1 third-party cookie
1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of null (reading 'previousElementSibling')”.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
9 of 10 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 broken link to your own pages
1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://www.exemplify.com.au/hubspot-for-saas-2 (404).
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://www.exemplify.com.au/home-v2.
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.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (exemplify.com.au).
Valid certificate (72 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for exemplify.com.au and is valid for another 72 days.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://exemplify.com.au 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
No CAA record
exemplify.com.au 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
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.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 44 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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.
About 884 words of copy
The homepage carries about 884 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Book A Free Audit →”.
13 calls to action
The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Book A Discovery Call →” and “Book A Free Audit →”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel and LinkedIn Insight.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be exemplify.com.au is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 60/100
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.
1 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:20832460.spf03.hubspotemail.net ~all”.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
13 cookies set on arrival
13Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies, 9 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
22 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 22 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner
