Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 44
44/100Your mobile performance score is 44 (desktop: 60). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.1 s
A phone's processor spends 4.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 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, reddit and Facebook and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 166 KiBAbout 166 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 631 ms
631 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 631 ms of main-thread work and 709 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.
reddit adds 612 ms
612 msreddit costs a phone 612 ms of main-thread work and 26 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
573 KiBAbout 573 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
436 KiB14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (436 KiB).
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 282 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
66 KiB66 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
59 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 59 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb 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.

Core Web Vitals

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.4 MB in 150 requests
3.4 MBYour homepage downloads 3.4 MB in 150 requests on a phone: scripts 1.9 MB (53), fonts 1.2 MB (14) and stylesheets 173 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.96 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.96 g of CO₂e: 114.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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.

All page content should be contained by landmarks (53 elements)

Elements with role="dialog" or role="alertdialog" do not have accessible names.
Elements with role="dialog" or role="alertdialog" do not have accessible names. (1 element).

SEO
Title is long (111 characters)
Your title is 111 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Criteo Enters Into Exclusive Negotiations to Acquire IPONWEB, a Market-Leading AdTech Pla…”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
15 links crawlers can't follow
15 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
143 internal links, 35 external
The homepage links to 143 pages on iponweb.com and 35 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 70 characters
Your meta description is 70 characters: “Read the latest Criteo press releases and other ad tech industry news.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Criteo Enters Into Exclusive Negotiations to Acquire IPONWEB, a Market-Leading AdTech Platform Company”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.criteo.com/news/press-releases/2021/12/criteo-enters-into-exclusive-negotiations-to-acquire-iponweb/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, NewsArticle, Organization, Person and WebPage.
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.criteo.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
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 (3,707 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /news/press-releases/2026/10/criteo-ssp-recognized-by-frost-sullivan-for-commerce-media-innovation/%20, whose canonical is /news/press-releases/2026/10/criteo-ssp-recognized-by-frost-sullivan-for-commerce-media-innovation. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page without an H1
/talk-to-an-expert has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/talk-to-an-expert has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 79 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed

Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 0 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
3 links through redirect chains
3 links go through two or more redirects, for example http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.criteo.com%2Fnews%2Fpress-releases%2F2021%2F12%2Fcriteo-enters-into-exclusive-negotiations-to-acquire-iponweb/&title=Criteo%20Enters%20Into%20Exclusive%20Negotiations%20to%20Acquire%20IPONWEB%2C%20a%20Market-Leading%20AdTech%20Platform%20Company&source=https%3a%2f%2fwww.criteo.com/.

Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off

3 checks passed
Domain is 21 years old
21 yearscriteo.com was registered in Jun 2005 through Gandi SAS. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only digicert.com, pki.goog, godaddy.com and amazon.com to issue certificates for criteo.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Jun 2035
criteo.com is registered until Jun 2035.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 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 2,594 words of copy
The homepage carries about 2,594 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com a:jira.iponweb.net a:jira-aws-ie-3.it.iponweb.net a:jira-aws-ie-4.it.iponweb.…”.
DKIM signing found
