Speed
Render-blocking requests
950 ms8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Improve image delivery
365 KiB3 images could be 365 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 14 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Use efficient cache lifetimes
10 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10 KiB).
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (rybbit.io), adding 14 KiB and 5 ms of main-thread time.
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 JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

98/100Your mobile performance score is 98. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).
Main-thread work: 0.3 s
A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 114 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 4.2 s
4.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image 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.
5 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.3 s
1.3 sThe first text or image appears after 1.3 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Largest Contentful Paint: 1.3 s
1.3 sYour largest element renders in 1.3 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “North America’s Recruiting Experts Since 1978”.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Time to Interactive: 1.3 s
1.3 sThe page is fully interactive after 1.3 s.
Images and page weight
1 image far larger than shown
327 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Manufacturing-Operations-Picture.jpg at 1,920 px wide, shown at 68 px. Resized copies would save about 327 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (40 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 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.15 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.15 g of CO₂e: 18.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 558 KiB in 39 requests
558 KiBYour homepage downloads 558 KiB in 39 requests on a phone: images 388 KiB (10), scripts 81 KiB (18) and fonts 43 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (2 elements)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Positive tabindex
2 elements have a tabindex above 0, which scrambles the keyboard order.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (2 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)

SEO
Title is short (28 characters)
Your title is only 28 characters: “National Register USA | Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
7 H1 headlines
There are 7 <h1> headlines (“North American Search Experts”, “Our Proprietary Database and Market Connections” and “Markets and Position Expertise”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (226 characters)
Your meta description is 226 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.
46 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 46 pages on nr-usa.com and 10 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.nr-usa.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage and WebSite.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.nr-usa.com/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.
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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (813 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.nr-usa.com/llms.txt (8 KiB, 30 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.nr-usa.com/b2b-recruitment-services/intern-program and https://www.nr-usa.com/b2b-recruitment-services/privacypolicy all use the title “National Register USA| Intern Program”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
12 pages without a meta description
https://www.nr-usa.com/it-sales-recruiters/sales, https://www.nr-usa.com/it-sales-recruiters/marketing, https://www.nr-usa.com/it-sales-recruiters/manufacturing-operations, https://www.nr-usa.com/it-sales-recruiters/executive-search, https://www.nr-usa.com/it-sales-recruiters/request-an-employee and https://www.nr-usa.com/pharma-sales-jobs/faq and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

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

Content and conversion
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 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 263 words of copy
The homepage carries about 263 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: “Call Us” and “Contact Us”.

Privacy and tracking
3 cookies set on arrival
3Opening the homepage sets 3 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.
1 other company contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 1 host 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
