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
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 754 KiBAbout 754 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 783 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (783 KiB).
Main-thread work: 10.3 s
A phone's processor spends 10.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cookie-Script.com and Facebook and others), adding 1.5 MB and 2.3 s of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
750 ms · 160 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 160 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 734 ms
734 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 734 ms of main-thread work and 648 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.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
Cookie-Script.com adds 394 ms
394 msCookie-Script.com costs a phone 394 ms of main-thread work and 30 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 378 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Facebook adds 352 ms
352 msFacebook costs a phone 352 ms of main-thread work and 251 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.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 48 KiBAbout 48 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
250 ms · 26 KiB2 images could be 26 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 32 ms
32 msYour server sent the HTML in 32 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Time to Interactive: 21.2 s
21.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 21.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 2.3 s

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 169 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 169 requests on a phone: scripts 2.1 MB (69), images 92 KiB (20) and fonts 75 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
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
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (4 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 55 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 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: 49 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines

1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
62 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 62 pages on humanforce.com and 7 external pages.
7 checks passed

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

3 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: 6 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.
Text is in the HTML

Other pages
3 links to non-canonical URLs

Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy

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

2 redirects before the homepage
Opening https://humanforce.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy

Registered until May 2027
humanforce.com is registered until May 2027.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: “1500+ Customers”. 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

SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:servers.mcsv.net include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:mailer.chargify.com include:infusionmail.com…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
7 trackers load before any consent
7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click).
