Speed

4 to fix75
  • Improve image delivery

    8.9 s · 6.0 MB

    25 images could be 6.0 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 8.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 75

    75/100

    Your mobile performance score is 75. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    700 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 73 KiB

    About 73 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, WordPress and WordPress Site Stats and others), adding 445 KiB and 175 ms of main-thread time.

  • Font display

    200 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 200 ms).

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 101 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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: 0.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 225 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 26 ms

    26 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix66
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 24.6 s

    24.6 s

    Your largest element takes 24.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “I am living an amazing life as a B2B marketing consultant s…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 25.8 s

    25.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.8 s. Good is under 3.8 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.

4 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 87 ms

    87 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 87 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).

  • Speed Index: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.9 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

1 to fix33
  • Page weight: 6.8 MB in 49 requests

    6.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.8 MB in 49 requests on a phone: images 6.0 MB (27), fonts 436 KiB (6) and scripts 222 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.92 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.92 g of CO₂e: 230.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 10077
  • 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.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • No main landmark

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • 9 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 12 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 9 passed and 3 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 9298
  • 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.

  • 17 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 17 pages on maas.coach and 11 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 159 characters

    Your meta description is 159 characters: “Digital marketing consultant for SaaS, AI, MedTech, and technology companies. Expert in ABM, lead generation, SEO, cont…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Gareth Harwood”.

  • Title: 41 characters

    Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Gareth Harwood - B2B Marketing Consultant”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, CollectionPage, Organization, Person 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://harwoodcreative.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

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

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://harwoodcreative.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.

1 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.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 5 pages without a meta description

    https://harwoodcreative.com/portfolio, https://harwoodcreative.com/blog, https://harwoodcreative.com/contact, https://harwoodcreative.com/2026/10/21/we-are-dorito-men-super-bowl-commercial and https://harwoodcreative.com/2026/09/09/abm-campaign-quid-pro-throw have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 pages with very little text

    https://harwoodcreative.com/portfolio, https://harwoodcreative.com/contact, https://harwoodcreative.com/2026/10/21/we-are-dorito-men-super-bowl-commercial and https://harwoodcreative.com/2026/09/09/abm-campaign-quid-pro-throw 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.

  • 8 internal pages checked

    We fetched 8 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    6 pages of 8 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • 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 6 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10092
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 429 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

6 to fix61
  • 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.

  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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.

  • Only about 33 words

    The homepage has only about 33 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No opening hours

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

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “Book time on my calendar”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (4 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

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 maas.coach, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
