Speed

6 to fix64
  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64 (desktop: 63). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 195 KiB

    10 images could be 195 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 111 KiB

    25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (111 KiB).

  • Main-thread work: 2.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1,661 HTML elements

    The page has 1,661 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • LiveChat adds 65 ms

    65 ms

    LiveChat costs a phone 65 ms of main-thread work and 366 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.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, LiveChat and Shopify and others), adding 747 KiB and 250 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    120 ms · 155 KiB

    About 155 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 120 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 143 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Reduce unused CSS

    23 KiB

    About 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    18 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix50

  • Real-user LCP: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

  • Real-user FCP: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 924 ms

    924 ms

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.8 s to 2.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

3 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 9.6 MB in 303 requests

    9.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 9.6 MB in 303 requests on a phone: media 6.2 MB (1), scripts 1,017 KiB (109) and other files 951 KiB (129). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.7 g of COâ‚‚ per visit

    2.72 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.72 g of COâ‚‚e: 326.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

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

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 43 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 1 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9289
  • 24 links with vague text

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

  • Meta description is long (230 characters)

    Your meta description is 230 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “ld+json block 1 is not valid JSON (Unexpected token ',', ..."rteacher",,"https:\/"... is not va)”.

  • 98 internal links, 22 external

    The homepage links to 98 pages on masterteacher.com and 22 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “The Master Teacher, Inc. - Professional Learning”.

  • Title: 48 characters

    Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “The Master Teacher, Inc. - Professional Learning”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.masterteacher.com/.

  • 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://www.masterteacher.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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,988 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.masterteacher.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

5 to fix67
  • 1 page without a title

    https://www.masterteacher.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://www.masterteacher.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 12 pages without a meta description

    https://www.masterteacher.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://www.masterteacher.com/products/teacher-pd-bundle, https://www.masterteacher.com/products/paraeducator-online-courses, https://www.masterteacher.com/products/the-master-teacher-weekly-pd-program, https://www.masterteacher.com/products/behavior-bundle and https://www.masterteacher.com/products/teacher-elearning-bundle and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages share a meta description

    https://www.masterteacher.com/pages/elearning-webinar, https://www.masterteacher.com/pages/ctepathway and https://www.masterteacher.com/collections/autism use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://www.masterteacher.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://www.masterteacher.com/pages/ctepathway and https://www.masterteacher.com/collections/autism have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 34 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.

  • 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.

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and LinkedIn Insight and 3 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.

  • 19 cookies set on arrival

    19

    Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies, 4 of them by other companies (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.

  • 36 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 36 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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