lccc.edu website review

66 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.3 MB).

19 images could be 5.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 15.7 s faster on a phone.

20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.

Your mobile performance score is 45. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and TikTok and others), adding 4.5 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.

About 1,006 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 770 ms of main-thread work and 869 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 costs a phone 412 ms of main-thread work and 742 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.

A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

juicer.io costs a phone 63 ms of main-thread work and 2.4 MB 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.

About 98 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 219 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

Polyfills for old browsers add 35 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Real visitors wait 2.0 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

Your 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 text “Play Background Video”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 23.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 876 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Real visitors wait 3.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 166 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real visitors see the first content after 2.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 2.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 9.8 MB in 147 requests on a phone: images 6.5 MB (33), scripts 2.3 MB (41) and fonts 463 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

3 images weigh 4.1 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example campus-video-shot.png at 1,678 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 2.0 MB.

19 images (6.4 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.

16 images further down the page (3.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.78 g of CO₂e: 333.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 32 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

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.

Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

The homepage links to 105 pages on lccc.edu and 17 external pages.

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.

There is no https://www.lccc.edu/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.

https://www.lccc.edu/about/campuses has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 70 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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.

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 451 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (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.

Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 29 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
