Speed

8 to fix64
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Main-thread work: 6.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 722 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 306 KiB

    About 306 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 64 KiB

    About 64 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    400 KiB

    4 images could be 400 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Minify JavaScript

    300 ms · 49 KiB

    49 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 274 ms

    274 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 274 ms of main-thread work and 510 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.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and LinkedIn Ads and others), adding 755 KiB and 350 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 113 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (113 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 125 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix76
  • Speed Index: 11.6 s

    11.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 11.6 s

    11.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    Your largest element takes 4.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “It goes beyond digital transformation. It reimagines custom…”. Most of its time is element render delay (4.4 s).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.08

    0.08

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.08, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 147 ms

    147 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 147 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

4 to fix58
  • Page weight: 2.2 MB in 55 requests

    2.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.2 MB in 55 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (13), scripts 832 KiB (15) and fonts 121 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (511 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (389 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    8 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example CXTdefinition-900x600.jpg at 900 px wide, shown at 283 px. Resized copies would save about 8 KiB.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.63 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.63 g of CO₂e: 75.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9396
  • 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.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 44 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10089
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 68 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 68 pages on g2o.com and 3 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 137 characters

    Your meta description is 137 characters: “G2O provides customer experience strategy that solves complex problems with CX, tech, data, product, & talent. Contact …”.

  • Title: 63 characters

    Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “Customer Experience Transformation for Better Business Outcomes”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://g2o.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage 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://g2o.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://g2o.com/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: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,027 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://g2o.com/industries-expertise/public-sector-consulting and https://g2o.com/contentful-migration-services have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 pages share a meta description

    https://g2o.com/ai-powered-legacy-software-modernization, https://g2o.com/innovation-alignment-sprint, https://g2o.com/performance-testing-services and https://g2o.com/strategy-to-impact-roadmapping use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 29 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 4 small tap targets

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.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79
  • 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.

  • 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 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 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 596 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 596 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Download the report here” and “Learn More About The Work”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight (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.

  • 10 cookies set on arrival

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 19 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 19 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
