One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

8 to fix60
  • Improve image delivery

    4.0 s · 3.3 MB

    10 images could be 3.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 431 KiB

    About 431 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 60

    60/100

    Your mobile performance score is 60 (desktop: 63). 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 Tag Manager, Facebook and Hotjar and others), adding 1,001 KiB and 703 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 363 KiB

    15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (363 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 340 ms

    340 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 340 ms of main-thread work and 515 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • 2,633 HTML elements

    The page has 2,633 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 173 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    24 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 75 ms

    75 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 75 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix50
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 20.7 s

    20.7 s

    Your largest element takes 20.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “LoadStop FleetOps Planner with AI Planner overlay showing d…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.3 s

    21.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.7 s

    6.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Real visitors wait 3.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 127% slower for real visitors

    +127%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 130 ms to 249 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

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

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Real visitors wait 1.6 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 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: 244 ms

    244 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 244 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

3 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 19% faster for real visitors

    -19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 2.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 5.0 MB in 82 requests

    5.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 82 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (20), scripts 1.4 MB (38) and stylesheets 82 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    2.6 MB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example shipment-tracking-check-calls-clear-4x.png at 3,024 px wide, shown at 356 px. Resized copies would save about 2.6 MB.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 1.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (3.0 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 (461 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.43 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.43 g of CO₂e: 171.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9695
  • 105 text elements with low contrast

    105 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (6 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 138 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 3 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 9298
  • 91 links with vague text

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

  • 165 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 165 pages on loadstop.com and 11 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 105 characters

    Your meta description is 105 characters: “Automate dispatch to cash in one AI-First TMS built for carriers, brokers, hybrid, and enterprise fleets.”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Run Every Freight Workflow From One AI-First TMS”.

  • Title: 54 characters

    Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “AI-First TMS That Runs Your Entire Workflow | LoadStop”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: FAQPage, Organization, SoftwareApplication, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

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

  • 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://loadstop.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no /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, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (4,118 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 1 page with very little text

    /schedule-a-demo 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.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 43 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • 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 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://assets.calendly.com/assets/external/widget.css' from origin 'https://loadstop.com'…”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    9 of 9 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix93
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (loadstop.com).

  • Valid certificate (99 days left)

    The certificate from DigiCert Inc · GeoTrust TLS RSA CA G1 verifies for loadstop.com and is valid for another 99 days.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://loadstop.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 49 links work

    All 49 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 9 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    loadstop.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    loadstop.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 13 years old

    13 years

    loadstop.com was registered in Jun 2013 through DotNamed LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jun 2032

    loadstop.com is registered until Jun 2032.

Content and conversion

1 to fix94
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • About 3,344 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 3,344 words of visible text.

7 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Schedule a Demo”.

  • 111 calls to action

    The homepage has 111 calls to action, for example “Pricing”, “Schedule a Demo” and “Download on theApp Store”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks, 18 customer or partner logos, a star rating and 2 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot.

  • 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.

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 a:smtpout1.namebrightmail.com a:smtpout2.namebrightmail.com ip4:216.87.78.66/31 include:namebrightmail.com inclu…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “s1”, “s2” and “mail”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot and 2 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.

  • 12 cookies set on arrival

    12

    Opening the homepage sets 12 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.

  • 26 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 26 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
