Speed

5 to fix59
  • Render-blocking requests

    5.0 s

    40 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.0 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59 (desktop: 95). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Cookiebot adds 353 ms

    353 ms

    Cookiebot costs a phone 353 ms of main-thread work and 163 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.

  • 2,690 HTML elements

    The page has 2,690 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 2.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Cookiebot, JSDelivr CDN and qualified.com and others), adding 259 KiB and 397 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 59 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (59 KiB).

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 139 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    38 KiB

    About 38 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    27 KiB

    About 27 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    12 KiB

    1 image could be 12 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 95 but mobile only 59. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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 CSS

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • 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: 10.8 s

    10.8 s

    Your largest element takes 10.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Harver”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.8 s

    5.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 11.0 s

    11.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.8 s

    6.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user INP: 214 ms

    214 ms

    Real visitors wait 214 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 26% slower for real visitors

    +26%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.5 s to 3.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 13 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -8%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 211 ms to 194 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.08

    0.08

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.08 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 638 ms

    638 ms

    Real visitors wait 638 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).

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 13.0 MB in 139 requests

    13.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 13.0 MB in 139 requests on a phone: media 10.3 MB (4), images 1.3 MB (29) and scripts 773 KiB (54). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Harver-mobile-video.webp 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 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.68 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.68 g of CO₂e: 441.6 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 9195
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 links without text

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

  • 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 60 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 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 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

1 to fixGoogle 9296

    Structured data found (Article, ContactPoint, ImageObject and Organization) but with 2 problems, for example “Article: missing datePublished”.

  • 177 internal links, 5 external

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 143 characters

    Your meta description is 143 characters: “Harver helps enterprise teams hire better, faster with predictive assessments, automation, AI readiness tools, and data…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Better Talent Decisions. Faster.”.

  • Title: 61 characters

  • Canonical URL set

  • 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://harver.com/sitemap_index.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: 5 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,426 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (1 KiB, 7 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /software/assessments, whose canonical is /assessments. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

6 checks passed

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 182 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

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

  • No Permissions-Policy

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

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

    All 44 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 4 external) answered without errors; 5 did not answer within 5 s.

  • security.txt published

    A security.txt file tells researchers how to report a problem with your site.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    harver.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 23 years old

    23 years

    harver.com was registered in Mar 2003 through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • DNSSEC is on

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

  • Registered until Mar 2027

    harver.com is registered until Mar 2027.

Content and conversion

3 to fix60
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 9 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 713 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 713 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Volume Hiring for BPO & Contact Centers”, “Request a Demo” and “BPO & Contact Centers Hiring”.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    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: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine 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.protection.outlook.com include:_spf.google.com include:_spf.exonet.nl include:mail.zendesk.com inclu…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “selector1” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads HubSpot (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
