Speed

5 to fix72
  • Mobile performance score: 72

    72/100

    Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 670 KiB

    40 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (670 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    590 ms · 100 KiB

    About 100 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 590 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.

  • supabase.co adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    supabase.co costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 320 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.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Google Analytics and others), adding 512 KiB and 253 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    113 KiB

    14 images could be 113 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 113 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    12 KiB

    About 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 609 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix65
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.3 s

    9.3 s

    Your largest element takes 9.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Texas’s Trusted Food Service Equipment Partner Since 1946 A…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 9.5 s

    9.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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.

3 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 148 ms

    148 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 148 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).

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

100
  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (26 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.51 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.51 g of CO₂e: 61.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.8 MB in 88 requests

    1.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 88 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (40), scripts 343 KiB (12) and fonts 69 KiB (2). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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 10099
  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (6 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 68 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 40 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10097
  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 72 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 72 pages on laneandmcclain.com and 2 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 138 characters

    Your meta description is 138 characters: “Texas commercial food service equipment distributor since 1946. Taylor Company authorized distributor. Sales, service, …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Texas’s Trusted Food Service Equipment Partner Since 1946”.

  • Title: 63 characters

    Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “Lane & McClain Distributors | Commercial Food Service Equipment”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • XML sitemap found

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

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://laneandmcclain.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: 5 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (288 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 24 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices

Google 96100
  • 1 low-resolution image

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

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    30 of 31 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix89
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 56 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • Only about 248 words

    The homepage has only about 248 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

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

  • 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.

7 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “TALK TO AN EQUIPMENT SPECIALIST” and “REQUEST SERVICE”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Call Today: (877) 829-5670”, “Contact” and “Talk to an Equipment Specialist”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 4 phone links and 4 email links.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

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 Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 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.

  • 9 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 9 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 laneandmcclain.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
