Speed

4 to fix88
  • Avoid multiple page redirects

    1.8 s

    The page goes through 3 redirects before it starts loading, costing about 1.8 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.

  • Mobile performance score: 88

    88/100

    Your mobile performance score is 88. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Document request latency

    400 ms

    The HTML itself could arrive about 400 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 195 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 26 KiB

    About 26 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    36 KiB

    About 36 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    22 KiB

    1 image could be 22 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    12 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Shopify), adding 13 KiB and 6 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 598 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Real visitors wait 5.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 4.3 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 4.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 2.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 6.3 s

    6.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.1 s

    4.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Your largest element takes 2.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Enter your email and we'll send you a verification code”. Most of its time is element render delay (1.3 s).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 107 ms

    107 ms

    Real visitors wait 107 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.34 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.34 g of CO₂e: 41.0 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: 1.2 MB in 99 requests

    1.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 99 requests on a phone: other files 517 KiB (26), scripts 305 KiB (46) and fonts 235 KiB (5). 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

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • Zoom is disabled

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 2 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 5862
  • No meta description

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

  • Blocked from indexing

    Google's crawler is blocked from indexing this page.

  • Title is short (21 characters)

    Your title is only 21 characters: “OCS Circular Solution”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No social preview image

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

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 13 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 13 pages on ocscircular.co.uk and 3 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization 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.ocscircular.co.uk/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

4 to fix73
  • 1 page points its canonical at the homepage

    https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/products/blanket-circular declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 2 pages share a title

    / and https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/products/blanket-circular all use the title “OCS Circular Solution”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/send-for-inspection-and-cleaning, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/products/blanket-circular, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/contact and https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/instructions have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/send-for-inspection-and-cleaning, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/collections/ready-to-order, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/contact and https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/instructions have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 5 pages with very little text

    https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/send-for-inspection-and-cleaning, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/collections/ready-to-order, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/products/blanket-circular, https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/contact and https://www.ocscircular.co.uk/pages/instructions 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.

  • 5 internal pages checked

    We fetched 5 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 5 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 5 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Unsafe attempt to load URL https://cdn.shopify.com/shopifycloud/customer-authentication-web/production/sprite-86bf53.sv…”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix50
  • 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 social proof

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

  • 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.

  • Only about 34 words

    The homepage has only about 34 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.

2 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Ready to order” and “Contact us”.

  • 1 short form

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 8 cookies set on arrival

    8

    Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies, 5 of them by other companies (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.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 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 ocscircular.co.uk, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 4 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
