Speed

7 to fix58
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    7.8 s · 8.1 MB

    118 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8.1 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    2.7 s · 2.5 MB

    5 images could be 2.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    3.0 s

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.0 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.5 s · 276 KiB

    About 276 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 58

    58/100

    Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    740 ms · 224 KiB

    About 224 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 740 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    700 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 700 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    250 ms · 32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Maps and Google Analytics and others), adding 293 KiB and 190 ms of main-thread time.

  • Minify CSS

    130 ms · 42 KiB

    42 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 127 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    34 KiB

    34 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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: 1.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 358 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix61
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 23.9 s

    23.9 s

    Your largest element takes 23.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 25.0 s

    25.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.0 s

    6.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 19 images without width and height

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

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.125

    0.125

    The layout shifts by 0.125 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 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
  • Total Blocking Time: 47 ms

    47 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 47 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 8.3 MB in 126 requests

    8.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.3 MB in 126 requests on a phone: images 6.9 MB (71), scripts 719 KiB (38) and stylesheets 312 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 3.4 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    2.2 MB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example hand_mobile.jpg at 1,904 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 2.2 MB.

  • 15 images below the first screen load straight away

    15 images further down the page (5.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 18 images in older formats

    18 images (4.4 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.

  • About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.34 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.34 g of CO₂e: 281.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 7687
  • 13 text elements with low contrast

    13 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.

  • 32 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (34 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 34 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.

  • 11 links without text

    11 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 should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 33 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 33 passed and 8 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

9 to fixGoogle 7358
  • No meta description

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

  • Title is short (8 characters)

    Your title is only 8 characters: “Mecatran”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • 13 H1 headlines

    There are 13 <h1> headlines (“Urbineris”, “Urbiplan” and “Urbiplan”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

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

  • No XML sitemap

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

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at mecatran.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • 4 links with vague text

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 14 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 14 pages on mecatran.com and 5 external pages.

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.mecatran.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

    There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,179 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.mecatran.com/en and https://www.mecatran.com/fr all use the title “Mecatran”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 6 pages without a meta description

    https://www.mecatran.com/fr, https://www.mecatran.com/about/company, https://www.mecatran.com/about/philosophy, https://www.mecatran.com/about/products, https://www.mecatran.com/work/montpellier and https://www.mecatran.com/work/paris have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://www.mecatran.com/about/company, https://www.mecatran.com/about/philosophy and https://www.mecatran.com/about/products have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.mecatran.com/work/paris 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.

  • 6 internal pages checked

    We fetched 6 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 6 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 6985
  • 2 small tap targets

    2 of 7 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.mecatran.com/en/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure stylesheet '…”.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79
  • 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.

  • No analytics detected

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

  • About 1,074 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,074 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact”.

  • 1 short form

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 32 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 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

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

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

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (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.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 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 mecatran.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
