Speed

8 to fix34
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    9.5 s · 3.0 MB

    77 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.0 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    4.0 s

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.0 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    2.0 s · 379 KiB

    2 images could be 379 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    2.0 s

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 2.0 s).

  • Mobile performance score: 34

    34/100

    Your mobile performance score is 34 (desktop: 63). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 79 KiB

    About 79 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 69 KiB

    About 69 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.

  • 1,633 HTML elements

    The page has 1,633 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 140 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Fonts, FontAwesome CDN and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 416 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 63 but mobile only 34. 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.

  • Minify CSS

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 252 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 253 ms

    253 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 253 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix37
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 20.3 s

    20.3 s

    Your largest element takes 20.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The Future Of Medical Affairs Is Conversational Learn More”.

  • Speed Index: 14.7 s

    14.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 14.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 20.9 s

    20.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 20.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.566

    0.566

    The layout shifts by 0.566 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 65 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

1 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 90 ms

    90 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 90 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix75
  • Page weight: 3.4 MB in 93 requests

    3.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.4 MB in 93 requests on a phone: images 2.7 MB (67), fonts 441 KiB (8) and scripts 182 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    55 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example mapv4.png at 1,900 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 55 KiB.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (403 KiB) 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.

  • 5 images below the first screen load straight away

    5 images further down the page (218 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.97 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.97 g of CO₂e: 116.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8691
  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 44 text elements with low contrast

    44 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 (40 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 40 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 11 links without text

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

  • 7 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h4 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 85 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 8 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

8 to fixGoogle 9267
  • Title is short (24 characters)

    Your title is only 24 characters: “Home - Insignia Learning”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • Meta description is short (24 characters)

    Your meta description is only 24 characters: “Home - Insignia Learning”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • 8 H1 headlines

    There are 8 <h1> headlines (“8+”, “500+” and “150+”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 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 (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://insignialearning.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 4 links with vague text

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 82 internal links, 20 external

    The homepage links to 82 pages on insignialearning.com and 20 external pages.

1 checks passed
  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

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://insignialearning.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 (2,591 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 12 internal pages checked

    We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 12 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 12 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 8891
  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Content security policy”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    18 of 19 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • No opening hours

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

  • 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 924 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 924 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Learn More”.

  • 6 calls to action

  • 2 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 20 customer or partner logos, 2 trust badges and “more than 39,000 members”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 1 email link.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at insignialearning.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
