Speed

5 to fix53
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 53

    53/100

    Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and classy.org and others), adding 882 KiB and 551 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 398 ms

    398 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 398 ms of main-thread work and 642 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 JavaScript

    373 KiB

    About 373 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    248 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (248 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 34 KiB

    About 34 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.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 153 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    4 KiB

    1 image could be 4 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 558 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Speed Index: 27.9 s

    27.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 27.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.7 s

    8.7 s

    Your largest element takes 8.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “INSPIRED BY FAITH. DRIVEN BY PURPOSE. At IOCC, we’ve helped…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 11.8 s

    11.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.17

    0.17

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.17 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.197

    0.197

    The layout shifts by 0.197 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 3 images without width and height

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

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 92 ms

    92 ms

    Real visitors wait 92 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 17% faster for real visitors

    -17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 125 ms to 101 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 116 ms

    116 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 116 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 80 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 80 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (20), scripts 1.0 MB (28) and fonts 449 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (309 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.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.80 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.80 g of CO₂e: 96.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 9496
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 13 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9288
  • No H1 headline

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

  • 12 links with vague text

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

  • Open Graph partly set

    Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

  • 118 internal links, 21 external

    The homepage links to 118 pages on iocc.org and 21 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “International Orthodox Christian Charities offers worldwide emergency relief & development programs to those in need wo…”.

  • Title: 61 characters

    Your title is a healthy 61 characters: “Worldwide Relief | International Orthodox Christian Charities”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://iocc.org/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://iocc.org/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://iocc.org/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.

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: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (823 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://iocc.org/events is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://iocc.org/events has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://iocc.org/events has 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 79 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9287
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

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

  • A 11-field form

    Your longest form asks for 11 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • Only about 247 words

    The homepage has only about 247 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No opening hours

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

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “LEARN MORE”.

  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Materials Request” and “Start search”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and X (Twitter) Ads (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.

  • 8 cookies set on arrival

    8

    Opening the homepage sets 8 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.

  • 23 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 23 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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 iocc.org, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
