Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
6.2 s · 1,019 KiBAbout 1,019 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.2 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 435 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (435 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 43
43/100Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 5.8 s
A phone's processor spends 5.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.2 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 CDN, LinkedIn Ads and protechts.net and others), adding 2.7 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 438 ms
438 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 438 ms of main-thread work and 745 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.
LinkedIn Ads adds 403 ms
403 msLinkedIn Ads costs a phone 403 ms of main-thread work and 562 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 CSS
340 ms · 96 KiBAbout 96 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 340 ms faster on a phone.
substackcdn.com adds 252 ms
252 mssubstackcdn.com costs a phone 252 ms of main-thread work and 867 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.
protechts.net adds 286 ms
286 msprotechts.net costs a phone 286 ms of main-thread work and 106 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 249 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
221 KiB1 image could be 221 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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: 21 ms
21 msYour server sent the HTML in 21 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 10.8 s
10.8 sThe first text or image appears after 10.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 20.4 s
20.4 sYour largest element takes 20.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Itzy Sabo”.
Time to Interactive: 21.2 s
21.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 21.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 10.8 s
10.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 10.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 502 ms
502 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 502 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 165 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 165 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (92), images 398 KiB (20) and other files 388 KiB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (246 KiB) is 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 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.00 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.00 g of CO₂e: 119.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images 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
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.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (48 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 48 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.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 1 image in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
27 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 32 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 27 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (82 characters)
Your title is 82 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Itzy Sabo — I help CTOs become indispensable through high impact business outcomes”.
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 long (169 characters)
Your meta description is 169 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Maximise Your CTO Impact!”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://itzysabo.com/.
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 and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://itzysabo.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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://itzysabo.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 (1,069 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
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 438 words of copy
The homepage carries about 438 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
1 short form
A short form (3 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Plausible.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (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.
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies, 6 of them by other companies (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.
26 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 26 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 itzysabo.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
