fia.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Improve image delivery
2.0 s · 7.9 MB6 images could be 7.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
5.2 s66 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.2 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.0 s · 993 KiB131 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (993 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 39
39/100Your mobile performance score is 39. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
6,825 HTML elements
The page has 6,825 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 262 KiBAbout 262 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, cdn-cookieyes.com and Twitter and others), adding 759 KiB and 650 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 70 KiBAbout 70 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 495 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 362 ms
362 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 362 ms of main-thread work and 337 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.
Main-thread work: 2.9 s
A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 26 KiB26 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 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.

Server response: 45 ms
45 msYour server sent the HTML in 45 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: 34.5 s
34.5 sYour largest element takes 34.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “FÉDÉRATION INTERNATIONALE DE L'AUTOMOBILE”.
Time to Interactive: 36.6 s
36.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 36.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 5.4 s
5.4 sThe first text or image appears after 5.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.0 s
7.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 847 ms
847 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 847 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user LCP: 3.0 s
3.0 sReal visitors wait 3.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.14

Real-user FCP: 2.1 s
2.1 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
12 images without width and height
12 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Tap response (INP) got 14% faster for real visitors
-14%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 102 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 41% faster for real visitors
-41%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.0 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.054
0.054The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.054, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 16.0 MB in 164 requests
16.0 MBYour homepage downloads 16.0 MB in 164 requests on a phone: images 8.7 MB (57), media 5.8 MB (2) and scripts 688 KiB (74). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
7_52.jpg weighs 7.2 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
7.0 MB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 7_52.jpg at 7,680 px wide, shown at 440 px. Resized copies would save about 7.0 MB.
12 images in older formats
12 images (8.4 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 (8.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 4.5 g of CO₂ per visit
4.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.53 g of CO₂e: 543.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
14 text elements with low contrast
14 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
ARIA input fields must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA input fields must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
6 images without alt text
6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (57 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 57 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.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500% (1 element)
Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500%: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
1 checks passed
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 12 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (196 characters)
Your meta description is 196 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
285 internal links, 35 external
The homepage links to 285 pages on fia.com and 35 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile”.
Title: 41 characters
Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Federation Internationale de l'Automobile”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.fia.com/.
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://www.fia.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
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.
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 (8,022 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
/fia-environmental-policy has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
/media-center/press_release and /careers use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
6 pages without an H1
/fia-global-partner-programme, /annual-report, /sustainability-and-di-report, /fia-anti-harassment-and-non-discrimination-policy, /fia-environmental-policy and /fia-archives-digitisation-and-e-library-project 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 198 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.
Canonical URLs point to themselves
No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.
Titles are unique
Every page we checked has its own title.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
2 small tap targets
2 of 8 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
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 Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
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 (fia.com).
Valid certificate (67 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for fia.com and is valid for another 67 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
http:// redirects to https
http://fia.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 60 links work
All 60 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 20 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
fia.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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 30 years old
30 yearsfia.com was registered in Nov 1995 through Lexsynergy Limited. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only pki.goog, amazon.com, digicert.com and letsencrypt.org to issue certificates for fia.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Nov 2031
fia.com is registered until Nov 2031.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
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 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 759 words of copy
The homepage carries about 759 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
5 calls to action
The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Contact” and “Learn more”.
2 short forms
2 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Email authentication
SPF does not block other senders (no all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=_sqyumezet.sdmarc.net”.
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
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “selector2” and “k2”), 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). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
14 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
