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
3.5 s36 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.5 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 780 KiBAbout 780 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.
Reduce unused CSS
1.4 s · 257 KiBAbout 257 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 46
46/100Your mobile performance score is 46 (desktop: 46). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Improve image delivery
800 ms · 380 KiB6 images could be 380 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 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 Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.6 MB and 770 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 315 ms
315 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 315 ms of main-thread work and 546 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.
Google CDN adds 255 ms
255 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 255 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, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
162 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (162 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 11 KiB11 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 130 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
39 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
11 KiB11 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

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.

Largest Contentful Paint: 11.0 s
11.0 sYour largest element takes 11.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text ““I JUST FEEL LIKE MY LIFE IS BACKNOW, AND I CANDO ANYTHING.””.
Time to Interactive: 17.9 s
17.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.6 s
9.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.2 s
4.2 sThe first text or image appears after 4.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user LCP: 3.3 s
3.3 sReal visitors wait 3.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.9 s

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.205
0.205The layout shifts by 0.205 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
5 images without width and height

Total Blocking Time: 160 ms
160 msScripts block the page for only 160 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 12.6 MB in 150 requests
12.6 MBYour homepage downloads 12.6 MB in 150 requests on a phone: media 7.6 MB (1), images 2.1 MB (21) and scripts 1.9 MB (60). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 3.6 g of CO₂ per visit
3.57 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.57 g of CO₂e: 428.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
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.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

9 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 12 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 9 passed and 3 failed. 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 social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
5 links with vague text
5 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
55 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 55 pages on nspc.com and 14 external pages.

Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://nspc.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: AboutPage, SiteNavigationElement, WebSite and medicalbusiness.
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://nspc.com/sitemap_index.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://nspc.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.
1 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.
Other pages
3 linked pages hidden from search
https://nspc.com/patient-center/infographics-patient-education, https://nspc.com/infographics-unruptured-brain-aneurysm and https://nspc.com/infographics-moyamoya-syndrome are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.
9 pages without a meta description
https://nspc.com/patient-forms, https://nspc.com/clinical-case-studies, https://nspc.com/patient-center/new-no-surprise-bill-protects-patients-from-oon-surgery, https://nspc.com/patient-center/insurance-providers, https://nspc.com/videos and https://nspc.com/patient-center/infographics-patient-education and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

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.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
Only about 33 words
The homepage has only about 33 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
6 checks passed
10 calls to action
The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “CONTACT US”, “E-Book” and “Learn more.”.
4 short forms
4 short forms (7 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 10 phone links and 0 email links.
Opening hours shown
Your opening hours are on the homepage.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Privacy and tracking
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 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 nspc.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
