Speed

10 to fix43
  • Improve image delivery

    2.3 s · 5.4 MB

    14 images could be 5.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.7 s · 535 KiB

    About 535 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.8 s

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

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Squarespace, sqspcdn.com and zoominfo.com and others), adding 7.6 MB and 917 ms of main-thread time.

  • Squarespace adds 875 ms

    875 ms

    Squarespace costs a phone 875 ms of main-thread work and 1.5 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 185 KiB

    About 185 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.

  • squarespace-cdn.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    squarespace-cdn.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 6.0 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.

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 279 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 831 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 104 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 104 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

    150 ms · 19 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (19 KiB).

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 52 ms

    52 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 52 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 29.4 s

    29.4 s

    Your largest element takes 29.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 30.8 s

    30.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 30.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 12.0 s

    12.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 12.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.301

    0.301

    The layout shifts by 0.301 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 205 ms

    205 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 205 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

6 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors wait 1.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 70 ms

    70 ms

    Real visitors wait 70 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 501 ms

    501 ms

    Real visitors wait 501 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

Images and page weight

4 to fix25
  • Page weight: 7.8 MB in 109 requests

    7.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.8 MB in 109 requests on a phone: images 6.1 MB (26), scripts 1.2 MB (49) and stylesheets 168 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 4 images over 500 KB

    4 images weigh 4.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 4 images far larger than shown

    661 KiB

    4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example ezgif.com-animated-gif-maker+(4).gif at 390 px wide, shown at 121 px. Resized copies would save about 661 KiB.

  • 4 images in older formats

    4 images (4.8 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (197 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.22 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.22 g of CO₂e: 266.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 8894
  • Hidden but focusable

    4 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 37 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 9270
  • Title is short (28 characters)

    Your title is only 28 characters: “Liquid Asset Partners - Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Liquid Asset Partners specializes in transforming” and “your surplus assets into value for your business.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (272 characters)

    Your meta description is 272 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (LocalBusiness, Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “WebSite: image is not an absolute URL ("//images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6321dd9843751f15822…”.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://liquidap.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at liquidap.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • 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.

  • 62 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 62 pages on liquidap.com and 3 external pages.

2 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

AI search readiness

1 to fix81
  • Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing name, url, logo and description. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

1 checks passed
  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (241 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix78
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://liquidap.com/appraisals and https://liquidap.com/Services all use the title “Appraisals — Liquid Asset Partners”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 14 pages without a meta description

    https://liquidap.com/appraisals, https://liquidap.com/auction, https://liquidap.com/liquidation, https://liquidap.com/finance, https://liquidap.com/projects and https://liquidap.com/medical-equipment-storefront and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://liquidap.com/Services, whose canonical is https://liquidap.com/appraisals. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 12 pages without an H1

    https://liquidap.com/appraisals, https://liquidap.com/auction, https://liquidap.com/liquidation, https://liquidap.com/finance, https://liquidap.com/projects and https://liquidap.com/about and 6 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://liquidap.com/contact 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.

  • 4 pages slow to respond

    https://liquidap.com/appraisals, https://liquidap.com/auction, https://liquidap.com/liquidation and https://liquidap.com/finance took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 18 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://static1.squarespace.com/static/versioned-site-css/6321dd9843751f1582212690/103/5c5…”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    18 of 19 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix81
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Only about 211 words

    The homepage has only about 211 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SIGN UP”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “contact us” and “CONTACT US”.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • 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

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at liquidap.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
