Speed

4 to fix73
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 210 KiB

    About 210 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 2,546 HTML elements

    The page has 2,546 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 33 KiB

    About 33 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Maps, jQuery CDN and FontAwesome CDN), adding 409 KiB and 102 ms of main-thread time.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 60 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    36 KiB

    1 image could be 36 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Minify CSS

    8 KiB

    8 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3 KiB

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

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 115 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

4 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

  • Largest content (LCP) got 25% slower for real visitors

    +25%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 0.9 s to 1.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Time to Interactive: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

10 checks passed

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 67 ms

    67 ms

  • Real-user TTFB: 578 ms

    578 ms

  • Tap response (INP) got 11% faster for real visitors

    -11%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 68 ms to 67 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.6 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

  • Total Blocking Time: 19 ms

    19 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 19 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.40 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.40 g of CO₂e: 47.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.4 MB in 29 requests

    1.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.4 MB in 29 requests on a phone: images 584 KiB (4), fonts 381 KiB (5) and scripts 379 KiB (14). That is a lean page.

  • 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.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 8994
  • 4 text elements with low contrast

    4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 3 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 28 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: 28 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8580
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (27 characters)

    Your title is only 27 characters: “Home - New Mountain Capital”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 299 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 299 pages on newmountaincapital.com and 0 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Building Great Businesses”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.newmountaincapital.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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.newmountaincapital.com/sitemap_index.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.newmountaincapital.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.

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 (3,990 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    https://www.newmountaincapital.com/about-us, https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies, https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies/private-equity, https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies/private-equity/portfolio, https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies/credit and https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies/net-lease and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.newmountaincapital.com/our-strategies/private-equity/portfolio has 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 197 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    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

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught (in promise) InvalidValueError: initMap is not a function”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    16 of 17 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • No social proof

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

  • 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 analytics detected

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

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 278 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 278 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “CONTACT”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Learn More About Us” and “Learn More About Our Strategies”.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening 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.

  • 3 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 3 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).

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