Speed

6 to fix63
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.5 s

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 63

    63/100

    Your mobile performance score is 63 (desktop: 98). 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 Amplitude Mobile Analytics and others), adding 1.2 MB and 825 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    491 KiB

    About 491 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 322 KiB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (322 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 199 ms

    199 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 199 ms of main-thread work and 304 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    About 14 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.

  • 11 long tasks on the main thread

    11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 140 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    124 KiB

    12 images could be 124 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    57 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 57 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 98 but mobile only 63. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 2.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix62
  • Time to Interactive: 11.7 s

    11.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.4 s

    3.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.235

    0.235

    The layout shifts by 0.235 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.6 s

    3.6 s

    Your largest element takes 3.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Total Blocking Time: 362 ms

    362 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 362 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 16 images without width and height

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 3.4 s

    3.4 s

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

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.41 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.41 g of CO₂e: 48.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.4 MB in 72 requests

    1.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.4 MB in 72 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (24), images 203 KiB (23) and fonts 49 KiB (2). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 8691
  • 10 text elements with low contrast

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

  • <html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

    <html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

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

  • 6 links without text

    6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 21 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 38 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9287
  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 2 links with vague text

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

  • 27 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 27 pages on marketlinc.com and 2 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 158 characters

    Your meta description is 158 characters: “Hire your team of outsourced live chat agents with over 15 years of experience, supported by powerful AI technology and…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Unlock 20% more website revenue with live sales chat”.

  • Title: 47 characters

    Your title is a healthy 47 characters: “MarketLinc - Sales Agents & Live Chat for Sales”.

  • 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://www.marketlinc.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.marketlinc.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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (418 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix63
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://www.marketlinc.com/old-home, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 3 pages share a title

    https://www.marketlinc.com/post/kaspersky, https://www.marketlinc.com/post/norton-symantec and https://www.marketlinc.com/post/nuance all use the title “MarketLinc - Success Stories”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.marketlinc.com/privacy-policy has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages with very little text

    https://www.marketlinc.com/contact and https://www.marketlinc.com/calculator 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.

  • 12 internal pages checked

    We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • 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 11 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 1 small tap target

    1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 8 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • About 409 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 409 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact Us”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Learn More” and “Get in touch”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 1 email link.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amplitude, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

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

  • 25 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 25 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.

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