About 0.05 g of CO₂ per visit
0.05 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.05 g of CO₂e: 6.0 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: 181 KiB in 21 requests
181 KiBYour homepage downloads 181 KiB in 21 requests on a phone: HTML 59 KiB (1), images 52 KiB (2) and stylesheets 39 KiB (15). That is a lean page.

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
All page content should be contained by landmarks (79 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 79 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark

Other pages
5 pages share a title
/engage, /de/engage, /pt/engage, /es/engage and /fr/engage all use the title “Multichannel Business Messaging Platform | Sinch Engage”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

Served over HTTPS

Valid certificate (39 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for messagemedia.com and is valid for another 39 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

http://messagemedia.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 60 links work

Domain and trust
Domain expires in 33 days
sinch.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
