Speed

6 to fix89
  • Mobile performance score: 89

    89/100

    Your mobile performance score is 89. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, leadconnectorhq.com and Google Fonts and others), adding 2.5 MB and 552 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    695 KiB

    11 images could be 695 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 364 ms

    364 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 364 ms of main-thread work and 357 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.

  • leadconnectorhq.com adds 184 ms

    184 ms

    leadconnectorhq.com costs a phone 184 ms of main-thread work and 2.0 MB 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    304 KiB

    About 304 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 205 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 831 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix88
  • Time to Interactive: 11.3 s

    11.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 420 ms

    420 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 420 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 12 images without width and height

    12 images 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.

4 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.045

    0.045

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.045, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.1 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Celebrating 35 Years of Full-Service Catering, Corporate Ca…”.

  • Speed Index: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.5 MB in 67 requests

    2.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.5 MB in 67 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (12), scripts 757 KiB (32) and fonts 210 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.71 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.71 g of CO₂e: 85.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9696
  • 9 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 13 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 31 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 33 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 31 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 10076
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 4 H1 headlines

    There are 4 <h1> headlines (“Whether you're planning an intimate dinner party,…”, “We do all kinds of catering...” and “You too could experience these results...”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • Meta description is long (487 characters)

    Your meta description is 487 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://ggcaters.co/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Title: 33 characters

    Your title is a healthy 33 characters: “Gourmet Gourmet Catering Services”.

  • 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.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 https://ggcaters.co/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 (854 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Best practices

Google 100100
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

4 to fix57
  • 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 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.

  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 857 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 857 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

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

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

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

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at ggcaters.co, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
