Speed

10 to fix39
  • Render-blocking requests

    4.3 s

    63 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.3 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.5 s · 628 KiB

    About 628 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.4 s · 264 KiB

    About 264 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 39

    39/100

    Your mobile performance score is 39 (desktop: 47). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.1 MB

    20 images could be 1.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and cdn-cookieyes.com and others), adding 629 KiB and 761 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 349 ms

    349 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 349 ms of main-thread work and 302 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.

  • 2,876 HTML elements

    The page has 2,876 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 253 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 51 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 51 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix50
  • 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: 12.7 s

    12.7 s

    Your largest element takes 12.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We are the leading communications solutions provider enabli…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 19.8 s

    19.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 19.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 6.0 s

    6.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 6.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 11.5 s

    11.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 687 ms

    687 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 687 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 31 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 87 ms to 95 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

3 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 15% faster for real visitors

    -15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.1 s to 2.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.01

    0.01

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.01, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 5.3 MB in 232 requests

    5.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 232 requests on a phone: images 2.9 MB (50), scripts 1.5 MB (75) and stylesheets 436 KiB (85). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.50 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.50 g of CO₂e: 180.1 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

12 to fixGoogle 8986
  • 22 text elements with low contrast

    22 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (3 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one main landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 5 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 112 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 13 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9290
  • Title is short (23 characters)

    Your title is only 23 characters: “iBASIS | BE THERE FIRST”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 2 links with vague text

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

  • 308 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 308 pages on ibasis.com and 9 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 130 characters

    Your meta description is 130 characters: “iBASIS is the leading communications solutions provider enabling operators and digital players worldwide to perform and…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “We are the leading communications solutions provider enabling operators and digital players worldwide to perform and tr…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://ibasis.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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://ibasis.com/sitemap.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 (1,761 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix93
  • 2 linked pages hidden from search

    /solutions/managed-international-voice and /solutions/international-voice are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 45 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    12 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 12 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • Every page has a title

    All 12 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 15 small tap targets

    15 of 22 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix94
  • No HSTS header

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

  • 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.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (32 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for ibasis.com and is valid for another 32 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 46 links work

    All 46 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    ibasis.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

    ibasis.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 27 years old

    27 years

    ibasis.com was registered in Sep 1999 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Sep 2027

    ibasis.com is registered until Sep 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 8 trust badges. 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 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 1,024 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,024 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact” and “CALL”.

  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “CONTACT”, “CONTACT US” and “Contact”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (6 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

Email authentication

3 to fix0
  • No DMARC policy

    ibasis.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

  • No SPF record

    ibasis.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.

  • 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: 0/100

    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.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 8 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 8 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: CookieYes

    A consent management tool (CookieYes) loads with the page.
