Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 526 KiBAbout 526 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.8 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.
Reduce unused CSS
1.1 s · 236 KiBAbout 236 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 59
59/100Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
962 KiB4 images could be 962 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
275 KiB30 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (275 KiB).
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 274 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.4 s
A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Tealium, Optanon and dreamdata.cloud), adding 337 KiB and 243 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
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: 33 ms
33 msYour server sent the HTML in 33 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
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-user CLS: 0.53
0.53For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.53 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user TTFB: 2.2 s
2.2 sReal visitors wait 2.2 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 10.1 s
10.1 sYour largest element takes 10.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Executive Drive”.
Time to Interactive: 15.1 s
15.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.4 s
6.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 3.4 s
3.4 sReal visitors wait 3.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.9 s
2.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 385 ms
385 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 385 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
4 images without width and height
4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 15% slower for real visitors
+15%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 143 ms to 165 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real-user INP: 165 ms
165 msReal visitors wait 165 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Largest content (LCP) got 12% faster for real visitors
-12%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.9 s to 3.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001
0.001The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
executives-make-seamless-transitions.jpg weighs 741 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
4 images far larger than shown
1.1 MB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example executives-make-seamless-transitions.jpg at 4,096 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 1.1 MB.
Page weight: 3.2 MB in 79 requests
3.2 MBYour homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 79 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (40), images 1.0 MB (12) and fonts 611 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (1.2 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image in older formats
1 image (741 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 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.91 g of CO₂e: 109.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Images must have alternative text (1 element)
Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
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.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (12 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
1 checks passed
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
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.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
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.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
15 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 15 pages on lhhknightsbridge.com and 3 external pages.
6 checks passed

Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.lhh.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
24%A phone browser shows 885 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 208. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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.
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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.lhh.com/llms.txt (7 KiB, 33 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without an H1
https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/cookie-policy, https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/privacy-policy and https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/terms-of-use have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
5 pages with very little text
https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/about-us/join-lhh, https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/about-us/newsroom, https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/cookie-policy, https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/privacy-policy and https://www.lhh.com/en-ca/terms-of-use have 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.

Best practices
3 small tap targets
3 of 10 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
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 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 social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 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 885 words of copy
The homepage carries about 885 words of visible text.
1 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact us”, “Register for Career Support” and “Join LHH”.
Privacy and tracking
8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
4 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 4 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
2 checks passed
Consent tool: OneTrust

No known trackers before consent
No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
Security, domain, email and software versions
