Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.5 s · 730 KiBAbout 730 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.0 s2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.0 s.
Mobile performance score: 35
35/100Your mobile performance score is 35 (desktop: 29). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
650 ms · 1.4 MB42 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.4 MB).
Improve image delivery
659 KiB15 images could be 659 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 452 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 356 ms
356 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 356 ms of main-thread work and 527 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: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 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 (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and Clarity and others), adding 804 KiB and 474 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
37 KiBAbout 37 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
13 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
12 KiB12 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

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.
Real-user CLS: 0.94
0.94For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.94 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.7 s
13.7 sYour largest element takes 13.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Built for the Way You Work Count on us to keep your jobs mo…”.
Time to Interactive: 19.8 s
19.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 19.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.5 s
9.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 695 ms

2.9 sThe first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.199
0.199The layout shifts by 0.199 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 180 ms to 163 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Largest content (LCP) got 21% faster for real visitors
-21%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.7 s to 4.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 87 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 87 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (16), images 1.3 MB (40) and other files 282 KiB (26). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
14 images in older formats
14 images (1,005 KiB) 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.
8 images below the first screen load straight away
8 images further down the page (408 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.95 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.95 g of CO₂e: 113.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
20 tap targets too small
20 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one main landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
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.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (6 elements).
1 checks passed
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No page title
Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
2 checks passed
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.firstsupply.com/sitemapindex.xml.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
0%A phone browser shows 401 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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.
1 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.
Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=137026710&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=e0ae0820-9fc3-461d-855c-f82597c667e8&bo=1&sid=6baac4c0d28811f18ec90906e841d249&vid=6baaf400d28811f1a7d1a5ad514de607&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=9.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
3 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
33 of 41 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
http:// does not redirect
http://firstsupply.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
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.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (firstsupply.com).
Valid certificate (81 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for firstsupply.com and is valid for another 81 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/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
firstsupply.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
firstsupply.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 27 years old
27 yearsfirstsupply.com was registered in May 1999 through Cloudflare, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until May 2027
firstsupply.com is registered until May 2027.
Content and conversion
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 401 words of copy
The homepage carries about 401 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Quick Order”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Email authentication
Domain receives no email
firstsupply.com has no MX record, so it receives no email. SPF -all and DMARC reject still matter: they stop others sending mail as you.
Email authentication score: 100/100
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.
3 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:64.33.149.90/27 ip4:192.69.130.0/24 ip4:64.106.173.0/25 ip4:71.13.118.225/27 ip4:192.254.115.4 ip4:149.72.14…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “k1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Microsoft Ads and 1 more (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.
20 cookies set on arrival
20Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
