Speed

2 to fix94

  • Improve image delivery

    1.2 MB

    6 images could be 1.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 66 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    60 KiB

    About 60 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (bunny.net and JSDelivr CDN), adding 68 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

3 checks passed

  • Mobile performance score: 94

    94/100

    Your mobile performance score is 94. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 90 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

2 to fix100

  • Speed Index: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 16 images without width and height

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

  • 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.

5 checks passed

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.7 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “We help small businesses reach peak efficiency and performa…”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.003

    0.003

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.003, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The page is fully interactive after 1.7 s.

Images and page weight

5 to fix33

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    hero.svg weighs 1.2 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    858 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example [email protected] at 1,761 px wide, shown at 270 px. Resized copies would save about 858 KiB.

  • Page weight: 3.0 MB in 28 requests

    3.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 28 requests on a phone: images 2.9 MB (19), scripts 88 KiB (1) and fonts 60 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 8 images below the first screen load straight away

    8 images further down the page (1.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 6 images in older formats

    6 images (1.4 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 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.86 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 103.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9094

  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 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.

2 checks passed

  • Every image has alt text

    All 22 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 29 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 32 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 29 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 9280

  • Title is long (69 characters)

    Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Modern McGuire Productions: Custom Laravel and Web Development Agency”.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Person, ProfessionalService, WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Person: missing name”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

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

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 54 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 54 pages on modernmcguire.com and 5 external pages.

4 checks passed

  • Meta description: 148 characters

    Your meta description is 148 characters: “Modern McGuire Productions is a Texas-based agency that streamlines and optimizes business operations with custom Larav…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “We help small businesses reach peak efficiency and performance.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://modernmcguire.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

100

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://modernmcguire.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.

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.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details; logo would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (567 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix70

  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://modernmcguire.com/services/legacy-software-support, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://modernmcguire.com/contact has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://modernmcguire.com/contact took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 19 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 14 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 100100
2 checks passed

  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 6 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

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

  • No form on the homepage

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

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • No risk reducer

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

  • About 399 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 399 words of visible text.

6 checks passed

  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Get a FREE Action Plan”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Get My Action Plan”, “Get a FREE Action Plan” and “Learn More”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed

  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at modernmcguire.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
