mcssolutions.co.uk website review

39 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.8 s.

About 374 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

5 images could be 322 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.

112 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (89 KiB).

About 74 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 430 ms faster on a phone.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 91 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Maps, Google Fonts and kinsta.cloud), adding 160 KiB and 73 ms of main-thread time.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Your largest element takes 11.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “MCS Solutions invests in and acquires software companies to…”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 11.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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

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.

Your homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 100 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (11), scripts 810 KiB (46) and stylesheets 174 KiB (39). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

4 images (461 KiB) 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.65 g of CO₂e: 78.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

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

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 13 characters: “MCS Solutions”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

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

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 10 pages on mcssolutions.co.uk and 2 external pages.

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.

There is no https://mcssolutions.co.uk/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.

https://mcssolutions.co.uk/about-mcs-solutions, https://mcssolutions.co.uk/case-studies and https://mcssolutions.co.uk/contact-us have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://mcssolutions.co.uk/case-studies and https://mcssolutions.co.uk/contact-us have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

https://mcssolutions.co.uk/contact-us 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.

We fetched 3 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

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 404 ()”.

Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Mixed content”).

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 559 words of visible text.

The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
