Speed

8 to fix54
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    11.3 s · 4.8 MB

    30 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4.8 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    6.8 s · 1,011 KiB

    About 1,011 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    6.3 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 6.3 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    2.7 s · 520 KiB

    About 520 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.1 s · 310 KiB

    7 images could be 310 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 54

    54/100

    Your mobile performance score is 54 (desktop: 64). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google CDN adds 411 ms

    411 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 411 ms of main-thread work and 733 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Other Google APIs/SDKs and Google Fonts and others), adding 860 KiB and 445 ms of main-thread time.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    7 KiB

    7 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 17 ms

    17 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 17 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix66
  • First Contentful Paint: 17.1 s

    17.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 17.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 19.7 s

    19.7 s

    Your largest element takes 19.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “BEYOND EQUIPMENT.”.

  • Speed Index: 17.1 s

    17.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 17.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 20.0 s

    20.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 20.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 101 ms

    101 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 101 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: 6.0 MB in 59 requests

    6.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.0 MB in 59 requests on a phone: media 2.4 MB (1), scripts 1.9 MB (12) and stylesheets 634 KiB (13). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    97 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Nordon_light-1.png at 1,556 px wide, shown at 252 px. Resized copies would save about 97 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (382 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (180 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.70 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.70 g of CO₂e: 203.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8792
  • 8 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • 4 images without alt text

    4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h4 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9285
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Where Wholesale Equipment Meets Good Will: Fast, …” and “Find out why we’re called Nordon—Beyond Equipment.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (310 characters)

    Your meta description is 310 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 20 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 20 pages on nordoninc.com and 16 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 48 characters

    Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “Nordon Commercial Food Service Kitchen Equipment”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://nordoninc.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://nordoninc.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://nordoninc.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 (604 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 6 pages without a meta description

    https://nordoninc.com/service, https://nordoninc.com/proconnect, https://nordoninc.com/our-facilities, https://nordoninc.com/about/about-team-2, https://nordoninc.com/contact-page and https://nordoninc.com/privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 9 internal pages checked

    We fetched 9 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 9 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 9 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7387
  • 8 small tap targets

    8 of 17 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Mixed Content: The page at 'https://nordoninc.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure font 'http://nordo…”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Mixed content”).

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • 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 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 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 536 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 536 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “Learn More”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 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.

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