Speed

10 to fix55
  • Improve image delivery

    11.7 s · 6.3 MB

    10 images could be 6.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 11.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 37). 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 (ZenDesk, Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot and others), adding 1.8 MB and 812 ms of main-thread time.

  • Avoid multiple page redirects

    780 ms

    The page goes through 1 redirect before it starts loading, costing about 780 ms. Link and advertise the final URL directly.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 427 KiB

    About 427 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    495 KiB

    13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (495 KiB).

  • ZenDesk adds 399 ms

    399 ms

    ZenDesk costs a phone 399 ms of main-thread work and 757 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 332 ms

    332 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 332 ms of main-thread work and 304 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: 3.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • fluidra.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    fluidra.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 625 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.

  • Document request latency

    250 ms

    The HTML itself could arrive about 250 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • 13 long tasks on the main thread

    13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 101 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    15 KiB

    About 15 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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: 97 ms

    97 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 97 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix33
  • 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: 123.0 s

    123.0 s

    Your largest element takes 123.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 25.9 s

    25.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 25.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 128.9 s

    128.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 128.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors wait 2.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 202 ms

    202 ms

    Real visitors wait 202 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 299 ms

    299 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 299 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 2 images without width and height

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

4 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 788 ms

    788 ms

    Real visitors wait 788 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix25
  • Page weight: 35.9 MB in 98 requests

    35.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 35.9 MB in 98 requests on a phone: images 31.6 MB (31), other files 3.2 MB (27) and scripts 1.1 MB (35). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 7 images over 500 KB

    7 images weigh 25.3 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 7 images far larger than shown

    5.1 MB

    7 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 9111ccce51d601dcb506f0e83df4cca0ca0a6ed6.jpg at 2,168 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 5.1 MB.

  • 14 images in older formats

    14 images (25.6 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.

  • 6 images below the first screen load straight away

    6 images further down the page (282 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 10.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    10.18 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 10.18 g of CO₂e: 1221.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8192
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 5 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has 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.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

9 to fixGoogle 9231
  • Page is set to noindex

    The robots meta tag says “noindex,nofollow”: Google is told not to list this page at all.

  • 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 favicon declared

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

  • 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.grepool.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

2 to fix63
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    0%

    A phone browser shows 628 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

3 to fixGoogle 9666
  • No mobile viewport

    No viewport meta tag, so phones render the desktop layout zoomed out.

  • No HTML doctype

    The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.

  • No character set

    No character set is declared, so some characters can render as gibberish.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    28 of 33 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

Security and trust

1 to fix92
  • No Content-Security-Policy

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

  • No clickjacking protection

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

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

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

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (grepool.com).

  • Valid certificate (87 days left)

    The certificate from GlobalSign nv-sa · GlobalSign Atlas R46 DV TLS CA 2026 Q4 verifies for grepool.com and is valid for another 87 days.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://grepool.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

4 checks passed
  • Domain is 7 years old

    7 years

    grepool.com was registered in Feb 2019 through EuroDNS S.A.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only globalsign.com, amazon.com, letsencrypt.org and comodoca.com to issue certificates for grepool.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

  • DNSSEC is on

    grepool.com's DNS answers are signed (DNSSEC), so they can't be forged on the way to visitors.

  • Registered until Feb 2027

    grepool.com is registered until Feb 2027.

Content and conversion

4 to fix40
  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 628 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 628 words of visible text.

1 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Search for your shop”.

Email authentication

100
  • Domain receives no email

    grepool.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, and sends you reports.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf.fluidra.net -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Cookiebot) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

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

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.
