Speed

5 to fix58
  • Improve image delivery

    2.1 s · 477 KiB

    4 images could be 477 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.8 s · 315 KiB

    About 315 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 58

    58/100

    Your mobile performance score is 58 (desktop: 87). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 350 ms.

  • Main-thread work: 2.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 764 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, LiveChat and Hubspot and others), adding 168 KiB and 195 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 18 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 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).

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 87 but mobile only 58. 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.

  • Server response: 15 ms

    15 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix64
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 27.8 s

    27.8 s

    Your largest element takes 27.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “SOUTH FLORIDA'S LEADING Luxury Real Estate Sales and Market…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 29.1 s

    29.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 29.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.8 s

    7.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 167 ms

    167 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 167 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix45
  • Page weight: 7.8 MB in 97 requests

    7.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.8 MB in 97 requests on a phone: images 6.4 MB (33), scripts 761 KiB (42) and fonts 315 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 3.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 13 images in older formats

    13 images (5.0 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (130 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.22 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.22 g of CO₂e: 265.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 9899
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 9298
  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 33 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 33 pages on isgworld.com and 3 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 124 characters

    Your meta description is 124 characters: “ISGWorld is a top tier real estate firm in South Florida, providing our clients with top level sales and marketing serv…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “South Florida's Leading Luxury Real Estate Sales and Marketing Firm”.

  • Title: 60 characters

    Your title is a healthy 60 characters: “ISG World | South Florida’s Premiere Luxury Real Estate Firm”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://isgworld.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://isgworld.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://isgworld.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.

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: 6 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (542 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

5 to fix74
  • 2 linked pages hidden from search

    https://isgworld.com/portfolio and https://isgworld.com/disclaimer are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a title

    https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay and https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay-north-bay-village-fl all use the title “Shoma Bay - North Bay Village, FL | ISG World”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay and https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay-north-bay-village-fl use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay, whose canonical is https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay-north-bay-village-fl. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    https://isgworld.com/miami-report, https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay, https://isgworld.com/portfolio/shoma-bay-north-bay-village-fl and https://isgworld.com/portfolio/kempinski-residences-miami-design-district-fl have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages slow to respond

    https://isgworld.com/miami-report and https://isgworld.com/portfolio/kempinski-residences-miami-design-district-fl took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 11 internal pages checked

    We fetched 11 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 11 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

  • Every page has a title

    All 11 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 6 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 “wp is not defined”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix90
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 15 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No form on the homepage

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

  • 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 465 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 465 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “Learn More”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 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.

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