Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 206 KiBAbout 206 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
2.8 MB3 images could be 2.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Mobile performance score: 78
78/100Your mobile performance score is 78. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts), adding 266 KiB and 125 ms of main-thread time.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 143 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.5 s
A phone's processor spends 1.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 464 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s
4.7 sYour largest element takes 4.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Bringing Ideas to Life Through Games, Apps & Interactive Ex…”. Most of its time is element render delay (3.6 s).
Speed Index: 5.1 s
5.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 4.7 s
4.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
3 images without width and height
3 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.
3 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s
1.7 sThe first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 137 ms
137 msScripts block the page for only 137 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
vr_developer-TvG1BUyq.jpg weighs 560 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 15 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 15 requests on a phone: images 3.3 MB (8), scripts 409 KiB (2) and fonts 87 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
392 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example vr_developer-TvG1BUyq.jpg at 1,920 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 392 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (560 KiB) is 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 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.07 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.07 g of CO₂e: 128.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
9 text elements with low contrast
9 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 checks passed
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
Structured data has 4 problems
Structured data found (FAQPage, Organization, Service and WebSite) but with 4 problems, for example “Service: no offers (price) block”.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 138 characters
Your meta description is 138 characters: “Full-service studio for games, mobile apps, AR/VR, and interactive marketing. Trusted by brands and startups worldwide.…”.
Title: 50 characters
Your title is a healthy 50 characters: “Game, AR/VR & App Development | MotionWork Studios”.
Open Graph tags complete

robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
0%A phone browser shows 596 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://mowrk.com/llms.txt (3 KiB, 0 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED”.

1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 596 words of copy
The homepage carries about 596 words of visible text.
2 checks passed

Privacy and tracking

4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening 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.
3 other companies contacted

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 motionworkstudios.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
