mcwebdesign.com.au website review

20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8.0 MB).

10 images could be 6.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 11.1 s faster on a phone.

4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.6 s.

About 272 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 1.4 MB and 583 ms of main-thread time.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 315 ms of main-thread work and 380 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.

Facebook costs a phone 257 ms of main-thread work and 227 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.

caasbestosremoval.com.au costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 475 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.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 218 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 16 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 160 ms faster on a phone.

14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

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

Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

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 22.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Professional Business Services”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 36.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 4.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 444 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

1 image 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 8.8 MB in 41 requests on a phone: images 7.4 MB (15), scripts 648 KiB (10) and stylesheets 499 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

7 images weigh 5.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

11 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example cc9e3071-cab2-47d3-810f-7fe8d4028d11.jpg at 1,280 px wide, shown at 298 px. Resized copies would save about 3.6 MB.

11 images (7.4 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.

10 images further down the page (6.9 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.49 g of CO₂e: 298.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Your title is 73 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Web Design Sydney & Melbourne - Australian Web Agency - Congero | Congero”.

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

There are 2 <h1> headlines (“We build your business website for you. Live in 1…” and “Our Australian team builds your website for you, …”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

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

No XML sitemap at https://congero.com.au/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

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

The homepage links to 30 pages on mcwebdesign.com.au and 14 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://congero.com.au/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.

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://congero.com.au/social-media-offer, whose canonical is https://congero.com.au/tradie-website-special. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

We fetched 11 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

8 of 15 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Manifest: Line: 1, column: 1, Syntax error.”.

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

Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

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

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

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

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

The homepage carries about 925 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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.

Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (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 12 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
