Speed

3 to fix72
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 159 KiB

    About 159 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 72

    72/100

    Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    431 KiB

    9 images could be 431 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Accessibe Accessibility Overlay, 9gtb.com and Shopify and others), adding 387 KiB and 219 ms of main-thread time.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 198 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 38 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (38 KiB).

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 363 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.2 s

    7.2 s

    Your largest element takes 7.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 7.3 s

    7.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 7.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

8 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    Real visitors wait 0.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 71 ms

    71 ms

    Real visitors wait 71 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 0.8 s

    0.8 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 0.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 148 ms

    148 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 148 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 2.3 MB in 197 requests

    2.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 197 requests on a phone: images 822 KiB (19), other files 786 KiB (102) and scripts 511 KiB (44). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    GridDoctor-Header-300-System-2.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.64 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.64 g of CO₂e: 76.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 9793
  • 11 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 21 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10092
  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 33 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 33 pages on griddoctor.com and 6 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “Explore Grid Doctor's range of innovative solar generators, batteries, and charging systems, and more. Ideal for off-gr…”.

  • Title: 57 characters

    Your title is a healthy 57 characters: “Grid Doctor | Off-Grid Solar Power Solutions for Survival”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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://griddoctor.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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 (353 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

4 to fix68
  • 1 page without a title

    /customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 10 pages without a meta description

    /collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /collections/solar-generator-systems, /collections/all-products, /collections/solar-panel-kits and /policies/refund-policy and 4 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /policies/contact-information has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 16 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    31 of 32 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix86
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://griddoctor.com/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en&region_country=US (network).

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://facebook.com/griddoctor.

  • 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.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

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

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (59 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for griddoctor.com and is valid for another 59 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • 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

    griddoctor.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

    griddoctor.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 5 years old

    5 years

    griddoctor.com was registered in Oct 2021 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    griddoctor.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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.

  • About 274 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 274 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “SHOP NOW”, “SHOP” and “Contact information”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Email authentication

1 to fix50
  • No DMARC policy

    griddoctor.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 score: 50/100

    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.

2 checks passed
  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

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

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 3 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.
