monta.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 772 KiBAbout 772 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.
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Adroll and others), adding 858 KiB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 742 ms
742 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 742 ms of main-thread work and 549 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.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 71 KiB1 image could be 71 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 62 KiBAbout 62 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
Main-thread work: 3.1 s
A phone's processor spends 3.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 274 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,254 HTML elements
The page has 2,254 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
158 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (158 KiB).
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
36 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 36 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.3 s
8.3 sYour largest element takes 8.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 14.5 s
14.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 680 ms
680 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 680 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 6.0 s
6.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.8 s
2.8 sThe first text or image appears after 2.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
34 images without width and height
34 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.011
0.011The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.011, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.7 MB in 127 requests
2.7 MBYour homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 127 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (21), images 724 KiB (48) and fonts 374 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
WatchNow-Evyve-webinar.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
2 images in older formats
2 images (510 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.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.78 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.78 g of CO₂e: 93.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Every image has alt text
All 48 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
53 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Page is set to noindex
The robots meta tag says “follow, noindex”: Google is told not to list this page at all.
Blocked from indexing
Google's crawler is blocked from indexing this page.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
19 links with vague text
19 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
179 internal links, 31 external
The homepage links to 179 pages on monta.com and 31 external pages.
7 checks passed

AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,560 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (5 KiB, 24 links, though it should open with a “# Title” line), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
12 pages without a meta description
/en/enterprise, /en/pricing, /en/cpms, /en/cpms/hardware-compatibility, /en/cpms/firmware-management and /en/cpms/alerting and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /en/products/hub-charge-point-management-system/ev-roaming/emsp, whose canonical is /en/emsp/emsp-roaming. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page without an H1
/en/financial-operations has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
3 pages slow to respond
/en/cpms/hardware-compatibility, /en/financial-operations/billing-invoicing and /en/financial-operations/revenue-sharing took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://monta.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 54 links work

Domain and trust
No CAA record
monta.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 1,294 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,294 words of visible text.
4 checks passed

Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be monta.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:trustpilotservice.com include:mail.zendesk.com include:20114015.spf04.hubspotema…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
