Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 88
88/100Your mobile performance score is 88 (desktop: 99). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
700 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 700 ms.
1,596 HTML elements
The page has 1,596 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 30 KiBAbout 30 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 69 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (JSDelivr CDN), adding 2 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.5 s
A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 43 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 26 ms
26 msYour server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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 TTFB: 2.2 s
2.2 sReal visitors wait 2.2 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Real-user LCP: 2.8 s
2.8 sReal visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.6 s
2.6 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 3.8 s
3.8 sYour largest element takes 3.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Most agencies sell deliverables. We deliver business outcom…”.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
9 images without width and height
9 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 244 ms to 203 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.21 g of CO₂e: 25.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 765 KiB in 29 requests
765 KiBYour homepage downloads 765 KiB in 29 requests on a phone: images 410 KiB (13), fonts 221 KiB (5) and stylesheets 67 KiB (8). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
36 text elements with low contrast
36 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 132 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 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness

3 checks passed

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

Served over HTTPS

No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

Email authentication score: 75/100
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)
