Speed

7 to fix57
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.9 s · 477 KiB

    About 477 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.5 s

    15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 188 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (188 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    3.1 MB

    9 images could be 3.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Mobile performance score: 57

    57/100

    Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and tfaforms.net and others), adding 1,002 KiB and 557 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 373 ms

    373 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 373 ms of main-thread work and 519 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 24 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 160 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    11 KiB

    11 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 882 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 16.1 s

    16.1 s

    Your largest element takes 16.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Two women seated on a couch facing each other, one providin…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 16.4 s

    16.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.1 s

    4.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.9 s

    7.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 18% slower for real visitors

    +18%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 106 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 2.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Real visitors wait 2.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user TTFB: 401 ms

    401 ms

    Real visitors wait 401 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 168 ms

    168 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 168 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 4.6 MB in 62 requests

    4.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.6 MB in 62 requests on a phone: images 3.2 MB (11), scripts 1.2 MB (27) and fonts 70 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 4 images far larger than shown

    47 KiB

    4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example image at 1,200 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 47 KiB.

  • About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.30 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.30 g of CO₂e: 155.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9597
  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (3 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 17 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 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: 43 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10092
  • No structured data

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

  • No social preview image

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

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 86 internal links, 20 external

    The homepage links to 86 pages on msplus.org.au and 20 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 150 characters

    Your meta description is 150 characters: “Access evidence-based MS services & advice, including NDIS, allied health, employment & wellbeing support for multiple …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Helping you break down barriers and achieve goals”.

  • Title: 61 characters

    Your title is a healthy 61 characters: “Multiple sclerosis & neuro wellbeing and connection | MS Plus”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.msplus.org.au/.

  • robots.txt in place

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

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.msplus.org.au/sitemap.xml.

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.msplus.org.au/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

    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 (1,044 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix98
  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://www.msplus.org.au/support-services/specialist-short-and-long-term-accommodation/supported-independent-living-at-beverly-hills-home and https://www.msplus.org.au/support-services/specialist-short-and-long-term-accommodation/beachside-living-at-williamstown use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 62 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 6 small tap targets

    6 of 14 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Connecting to 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.4.0/css/font-awesome.min.css' violates the followi…”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix50
  • 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 social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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 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 811 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 811 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact us”, “Join our fundraising events” and “Buy a raffle ticket”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

  • 15 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 15 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 msplus.org.au, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
