Speed

10 to fix35
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.9 s · 898 KiB

    About 898 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 317 KiB

    49 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (317 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 35

    35/100

    Your mobile performance score is 35 (desktop: 70). 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, hsappstatic.net and Hubspot and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 735 ms

    735 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 735 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    746 KiB

    13 images could be 746 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 441 ms

    441 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 441 ms of main-thread work and 697 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.

  • Main-thread work: 3.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 381 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    58 KiB

    About 58 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 70 but mobile only 35. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67

  • Time to Interactive: 25.2 s

    25.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.2 s. Good is under 3.8 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.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.20

  • Total Blocking Time: 555 ms

    555 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 555 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.154

    The layout shifts by 0.154 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user TTFB: 570 ms

    570 ms

  • Tap response (INP) got 21% faster for real visitors

    -21%

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 4.0 MB in 147 requests

    4.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 147 requests on a phone: scripts 2.3 MB (49), images 1.2 MB (38) and fonts 175 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (22 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.12 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.12 g of CO₂e: 134.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8188
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (21 elements)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 21 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents (5 elements)

    Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 38 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • 6 tap targets too small

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

  • Links must have discernible text (1 element)

    Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 28 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 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 9 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9284
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

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

  • 9 links with vague text

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

  • 124 internal links, 20 external

    The homepage links to 124 pages on inotiv.com and 20 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 134 characters

    Your meta description is 134 characters: “Inotiv provides nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services, research models and related product…”.

  • Title: 38 characters

    Your title is a healthy 38 characters: “Discovery and Development CRO | Inotiv”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Open Graph tags complete

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.inotiv.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 https://www.inotiv.com/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 (1,159 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://www.inotiv.com/solutions, https://www.inotiv.com/therapeutic-area/neuroscience, https://www.inotiv.com/research-phase/discovery and https://www.inotiv.com/research-phase/ind-enabling have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click).
