ichs.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.

Speed

11 to fix41
  • Google Tag Manager adds 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 1.8 s of main-thread work and 449 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.2 s

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 41

    41/100

    Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Other Google APIs/SDKs and Google/Doubleclick Ads and others), adding 682 KiB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 1.1 MB

    8 images could be 1.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 12 long tasks on the main thread

    12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.2 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    760 ms · 402 KiB

    About 402 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 760 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    450 ms · 39 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    350 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 350 ms).

  • Other Google APIs/SDKs adds 258 ms

    258 ms

    Other Google APIs/SDKs costs a phone 258 ms of main-thread work and 120 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

    150 ms · 32 KiB

    About 32 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.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 69 ms

    69 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 69 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.1 s

    9.1 s

    Your largest element takes 9.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Protect Yourself Against the Flu ICHS is now offering flu v…”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 2.2 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 10.5 s

    10.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 10.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 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

    +1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 117 ms to 119 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.4 s to 2.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 137 ms

    137 ms

    Real visitors wait 137 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.05

    0.05

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.05 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 590 ms

    590 ms

    Real visitors wait 590 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.043

    0.043

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.043, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix33
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    6aa0908069168 weighs 654 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    544 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 6aa0908069168 at 1,920 px wide, shown at 306 px. Resized copies would save about 544 KiB.

  • Page weight: 2.4 MB in 56 requests

    2.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 56 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (22), scripts 781 KiB (14) and fonts 101 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (1.4 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.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (782 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.68 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 10097
  • 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.

  • 5 form fields without a label

    5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 19 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 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9287
  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 8 links with vague text

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

  • 212 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 212 pages on ichs.com and 16 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 155 characters

    Your meta description is 155 characters: “International Community Health Services provides medical & dental care to Seattle & King County Asian & Pacific Islande…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “International Community Health Services - ICHS | Seattle”.

  • Title: 62 characters

    Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “Home | International Community Health Services, ICHS | Seattle”.

  • 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://www.ichs.com/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 (1,046 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix74
  • 8 pages without a title

    /asset/69aedb9290c73, /asset/69aedb91d8c40, /asset/69aedb912052d, /asset/69aedb90554d5, /asset/69aedb8f8ef3c and /asset/69aedb8ed7d12 and 2 others have no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 8 pages without a meta description

    /asset/69aedb9290c73, /asset/69aedb91d8c40, /asset/69aedb912052d, /asset/69aedb90554d5, /asset/69aedb8f8ef3c and /asset/69aedb8ed7d12 and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 pages share a meta description

    /plan-your-visit, /imz-sched-child, /imz-sched-adult and /referrals use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 8 pages without an H1

    /asset/69aedb9290c73, /asset/69aedb91d8c40, /asset/69aedb912052d, /asset/69aedb90554d5, /asset/69aedb8f8ef3c and /asset/69aedb8ed7d12 and 2 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 88 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    14 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.

  • 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.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9293
  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 ()”.

  • 2 low-resolution images

    2 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    40 of 47 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix88
  • 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 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.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (63 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for ichs.com and is valid for another 63 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

  • http:// redirects to https

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

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 50 links work

    All 50 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 10 external) answered without errors; 14 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    ichs.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

    ichs.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 28 years old

    28 years

    ichs.com was registered in Oct 1998 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2028

    ichs.com is registered until Oct 2028.

Content and conversion

1 to fix83
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust 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 541 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 541 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: “Call: (206) 788-3700” and “Join Us”.

  • 20 calls to action

    The homepage has 20 calls to action, for example “Call: (206) 788-3700”, “Sign Up for MyChart” and “Contact Us”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 5 phone links and 0 email links.

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.intacct.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.google.com ip4:23.21.109.197 ip4:23.21.109.212 ip…”.

  • DKIM signing found

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

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

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 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.

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company
