Speed

7 to fix59
  • Improve image delivery

    192.4 s · 39.8 MB

    14 images could be 39.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 192.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.0 s · 187 KiB

    About 187 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59 (desktop: 66). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    440 ms · 55 KiB

    About 55 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 440 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 35 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (35 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 278 ms

    278 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 278 ms of main-thread work and 355 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.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Google Analytics and others), adding 480 KiB and 417 ms of main-thread time.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 180 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    3 KiB

    3 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, 473 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix63
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 196.7 s

    196.7 s

    Your largest element takes 196.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 34.3 s

    34.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 34.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 196.7 s

    196.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 196.7 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.

  • 8 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 200 ms

    200 ms

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

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.016

    0.016

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.016, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 44.0 MB in 80 requests

    44.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 44.0 MB in 80 requests on a phone: images 42.8 MB (33), fonts 591 KiB (9) and scripts 525 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 11 images over 500 KB

    11 images weigh 40.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 8 images far larger than shown

    2.8 MB

    8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example cadillac-case-study.gif at 1,200 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 2.8 MB.

  • 20 images in older formats

    20 images (42.8 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.

  • 11 images below the first screen load straight away

    11 images further down the page (3.7 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 12.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    12.48 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 12.48 g of CO₂e: 1497.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 10098
  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 30 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 38 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 40 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8571
  • 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.

  • Title is short (19 characters)

    Your title is only 19 characters: “Home - Hill Holiday”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 60 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 60 pages on hhcc.com and 3 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.hhcc.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://hhcc.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    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.

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

Other pages

3 to fix85
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    /hill-holliday, /from-to-labs, /media, /quest, /soci-studios and /work and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

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

  • 5 pages without an H1

    /work, /capabilities, /who-we-are, /news and /get-in-touch have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /get-in-touch 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 23 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “a.querySelectorAll is not a function p (<anonymous>:3:35) <anonymous>:3:290”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

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

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

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.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 0 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 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 (hhcc.com).

  • Valid certificate (77 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for hhcc.com and is valid for another 77 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 27 links work

    All 27 links checked from your homepage (24 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    hhcc.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

    hhcc.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 32 years old

    32 years

    hhcc.com was registered in Apr 1994 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Apr 2027

    hhcc.com is registered until Apr 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix70
  • 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: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 393 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 393 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Get in touch” and “Start Something Great”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.

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 -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

  • The footer still says © 2025.
  • It runs WordPress 7.0.2; the current release is 7.1.3.
  • 1 plugin is behind its latest release.megamenu 3.6.2 → 3.10.8
