Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.5 s · 640 KiBAbout 640 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
3.1 s12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50 (desktop: 87). 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 Maps, Google Tag Manager and Google CDN and others), adding 1.4 MB and 854 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
700 ms · 156 KiB3 images could be 156 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 700 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 96 KiBAbout 96 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 Maps adds 395 ms
395 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 395 ms of main-thread work and 457 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.
Google CDN adds 165 ms
165 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 165 ms of main-thread work and 351 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.
Adobe TypeKit adds 0 ms
0 msAdobe TypeKit costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 297 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.
Font display
250 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 196 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 20 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 20 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
13 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (13 KiB).
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 87 but mobile only 50. 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.9 s
A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 764 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 15.4 s
15.4 sYour largest element takes 15.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Flexible Solutions for Complex Biologics A Global Multi-Sit…”.
First Contentful Paint: 5.8 s
5.8 sThe first text or image appears after 5.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 15.4 s
15.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.3 s
7.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 340 ms
340 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 340 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
3 images without width and height
3 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
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 85 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 85 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (23), scripts 1.2 MB (36) and fonts 398 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (160 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (160 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
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: 119.5 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
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (7 elements)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don'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.
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.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 5 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 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
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Complex Biologics” and “YOUR TRUSTED CDMO”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
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.
46 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 46 pages on joinnbio.com and 4 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 153 characters
Your meta description is 153 characters: “JOINN Biologics strives to be a premier CDMO which provides our customers with quality, value, and speed to benefit pat…”.
Title: 35 characters
Your title is a healthy 35 characters: “JOINN Biologics - Your Trusted CDMO”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.joinnbio.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Article, Organization, Person, WebPage and WebSite.
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.joinnbio.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (1 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, logo, 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 https://www.joinnbio.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 (299 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://www.joinnbio.com/development-services and https://www.joinnbio.com/support have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.joinnbio.com/development-services/process-development/downstream-development and https://www.joinnbio.com/manufacturing/fill-and-finish 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://www.joinnbio.com/support, whose canonical is https://www.joinnbio.com/support-services. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page with very little text
https://www.joinnbio.com/support 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.
2 pages slow to respond
https://www.joinnbio.com/development-services and https://www.joinnbio.com/manufacturing took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 27 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.joinnbio.com/.
1 small tap target
1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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 10-field form
Your longest form asks for 10 fields (8 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
Only about 229 words
The homepage has only about 229 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.
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.
5 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
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Learn More”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link 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
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics 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.
3 cookies set on arrival
3Opening the homepage sets 3 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.
16 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 joinnbio.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
