One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

5 to fix70
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.1 s

    20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.1 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    650 ms · 935 KiB

    62 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (935 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

    Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    961 KiB

    15 images could be 961 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    460 ms · 110 KiB

    About 110 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 460 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    250 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).

  • Minify CSS

    140 ms · 13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 50 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 ms · 3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    10 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Fonts), adding 67 KiB and 1 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 88 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 7.5 s

    7.5 s

    Real visitors wait 7.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 4.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    Real visitors wait 3.0 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 24.1 s

    24.1 s

    Your largest element takes 24.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “HR consulting expertise that helps your business thrive.”.

  • Time to Interactive: 26.0 s

    26.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 26.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 13 images without width and height

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

6 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 111 ms

    111 ms

    Real visitors wait 111 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.

  • Tap response (INP) got 15% faster for real visitors

    -15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 104 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 19% faster for real visitors

    -19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 6.6 s to 5.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 8.2 MB in 68 requests

    8.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.2 MB in 68 requests on a phone: images 7.7 MB (27), fonts 264 KiB (6) and stylesheets 118 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 6.2 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 6 images far larger than shown

    535 KiB

    6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Freshers-Job-Opportunities-10-Tips-You-Must-Know-1280x908.jp at 1,280 px wide, shown at 328 px. Resized copies would save about 535 KiB.

  • 14 images in older formats

    14 images (7.5 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.

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (979 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.33 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.33 g of CO₂e: 279.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9094
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (29 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 29 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.

  • 3 links without text

    3 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.

  • Headings skip levels

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 37 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 35 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 31 passed and 4 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 8570
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (19 characters)

    Your title is only 19 characters: “Head Field Solution”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Heading Ahead.” and “Global Business”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 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.

  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 31 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 31 pages on headfield.com and 9 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • 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://headfield.com/wp-sitemap.xml.

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 /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 (615 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 10 pages without a meta description

    /contact, /about, /our-venture, /careers, /culture and /blog and 4 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 5 pages without an H1

    /contact, /about, /careers, /blog and /services have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 10 internal pages checked

    We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 10 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.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 10 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9697
  • 1 distorted image

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

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    13 of 14 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • No HSTS header

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

  • 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 (headfield.com).

  • Valid certificate (184 days left)

    The certificate from SSL Corporation · SSL.com TLS Issuing RSA CA R1 verifies for headfield.com and is valid for another 184 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 20 links work

    All 20 links checked from your homepage (11 internal, 9 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    headfield.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

    headfield.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 19 years old

    19 years

    headfield.com was registered in Dec 2006 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Dec 2031

    headfield.com is registered until Dec 2031.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • No analytics detected

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

  • 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 558 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 558 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 3 testimonial or review blocks and “200+ clients”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

Email authentication

2 to fix60
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be headfield.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 60/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:spf.protection.outlook.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 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).
