Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
5.3 s21 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.3 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 675 KiBAbout 675 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 21
21/100Your mobile performance score is 21. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.9 s
A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 623 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (623 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 164 KiBAbout 164 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and bepaid.by and others), adding 808 KiB and 776 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 340 KiB18 images could be 340 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 505 ms
505 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 505 ms of main-thread work and 348 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.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 414 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
400 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 400 ms).
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 68 KiB68 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 22 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 22 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
2,207 HTML elements
The page has 2,207 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Google CDN adds 186 ms
186 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 186 ms of main-thread work and 349 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.
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: 15 ms
15 msYour server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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.
Speed Index: 11.4 s
11.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 11.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 6.8 s
6.8 sYour largest element takes 6.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
First Contentful Paint: 5.2 s
5.2 sThe first text or image appears after 5.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 1.1 s
1.1 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Time to Interactive: 10.4 s
10.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.274
0.274The layout shifts by 0.274 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Real-user INP: 270 ms
270 msReal visitors wait 270 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user CLS: 0.25
0.25For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.25 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+4%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 214 ms to 230 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-3%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 98 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 98 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (24), images 713 KiB (61) and fonts 383 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
883kh359.webp 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).
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.75 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.75 g of CO₂e: 89.7 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 are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 buttons without a name
3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
7 text elements with low contrast
7 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (2 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate 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.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (25 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 25 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
10 form fields without a label
10 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
10 links without text
10 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 10 failed. 3 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 structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
404 internal links, 120 external
The homepage links to 404 pages on mts.by and 120 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 136 characters
Your meta description is 136 characters: “Белорусский мобильный оператор МТС ⭕️ Выгодные тарифы на мобильную связь и интернет в РБ, ✅ полезные сервисы для жизни,…”.
Title: 35 characters
Your title is a healthy 35 characters: “МТС – мобильный оператор в Беларуси”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.mts.by/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
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.mts.by/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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.mts.by/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 (254 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.mts.by/services and https://www.mts.by/services/mobile-menu all use the title “Мобильная связь в Минске”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.mts.by/services and https://www.mts.by/services/mobile-menu use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
5 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 5 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.mts.by/services, whose canonical is https://www.mts.by/services/mobile. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
2 pages without an H1
https://www.mts.by/by and https://www.mts.by/other/bonus have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
11 pages with very little text
https://www.mts.by/company/comp, https://www.mts.by/by, https://www.mts.by/company/vacancy/vacancy, https://www.mts.by/services/home/tariffs, https://www.mts.by/services and https://www.mts.by/services/mobile-menu and 5 others have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 182 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
14 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).
Every page has a meta description
All 14 pages that loaded have a meta description.
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
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
63 of 66 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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 direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 232 words
The homepage has only about 232 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
4 checks passed
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Популярное Shop.mts.by”.
6 short forms
6 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 13 customer or partner logos and 3 trust badges.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
1 cookie set on arrival
1Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (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.
7 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 7 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 mts.by, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
