gluedata.com website review

153 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8.7 MB).

75 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 20.8 s.

About 2.5 MB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 12.7 s faster on a phone.

About 1.8 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.6 s faster on a phone.

3 images could be 2.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.2 s faster on a phone.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 1.9 s).

Your mobile performance score is 18 (desktop: 28). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.

The HTML itself could arrive about 850 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

Google CDN costs a phone 751 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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 initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 853 ms on a phone.

Polyfills for old browsers add 94 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

84 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 277 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

The page has 2,492 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 215 ms of main-thread work and 319 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.

Your server takes 953 ms to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.

16 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

The first text or image appears after 21.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Your largest element takes 46.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “WE SOLVE COMPLEX DATA CHALLENGES GlueData is a specialist d…”.

Visually, the page fills in at 27.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 49.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The layout shifts by 1 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 505 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

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.

Your homepage downloads 11.3 MB in 184 requests on a phone: images 3.9 MB (13), scripts 3.3 MB (80) and stylesheets 2.7 MB (72). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

1 image (436 KiB) 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.22 g of CO₂e: 386.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

12 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

There are 5 <h1> headlines (“WE SOLVE COMPLEX DATA CHALLENGES”, “INTENTIONAL INNOVATION” and “ACCELERATED, RELIABLE DATA MIGRATION”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

6 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

The homepage links to 62 pages on gluedata.com and 2 external pages.

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.

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.

/data-integration 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.

/ and /data-integration all use the title “Top SAP Data Specialist | Expert SAP Solutions”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

/blog/category/data-archiving, /blog/category/data-migration and /blog/category/master-data-management have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

/about-us, /data-migration, /master-data-governance, /data-archiving, /our-software-custom-tools and /partners and 5 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 18 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to script at 'https://pageimprove.io/' from origin 'https://gluedata.com' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'A…”.

1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.

Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

gluedata.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.

gluedata.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.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

Your longest form asks for 10 fields (6 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,335 words of visible text.

gluedata.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

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.

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.

Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 8 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
