Speed

8 to fix83
  • Mobile performance score: 83

    83/100

    Your mobile performance score is 83. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    600 ms · 258 KiB

    20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (258 KiB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (hsappstatic.net, Hubspot and ContentSquare and others), adding 1.2 MB and 691 ms of main-thread time.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 418 ms

    418 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 418 ms of main-thread work and 716 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    468 KiB

    2 images could be 468 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    377 KiB

    About 377 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 310 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    39 KiB

    About 39 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix88
  • Time to Interactive: 12.3 s

    12.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 12.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    Your largest element takes 3.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We rebuild analytics, CRM, and internal workflows around th…”. Most of its time is element render delay (1.3 s).

  • Speed Index: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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: 178 ms

    178 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 178 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 fix83
  • 2 images far larger than shown

    279 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Screenshot 2024-09-19 at 06.40.01 (1).png at 765 px wide, shown at 74 px. Resized copies would save about 279 KiB.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (305 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (233 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.53 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.53 g of CO₂e: 63.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.9 MB in 51 requests

    1.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 51 requests on a phone: scripts 1.0 MB (22), images 486 KiB (5) and fonts 254 KiB (8). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 9698
  • 7 text elements with low contrast

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 2 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 40 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 1 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 10084
  • Title is short (9 characters)

    Your title is only 9 characters: “Optiblack”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No social preview image

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

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 24 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 24 pages on optiblack.com and 0 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 138 characters

    Your meta description is 138 characters: “Accelerate your growth with Optiblack, your trusted partner for analytics and tech solutions in SaaS, eCommerce, Fintec…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Know exactly where your revenue is leaking.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://optiblack.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://optiblack.com/sitemap.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://optiblack.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 (874 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 6 pages without a meta description

    https://optiblack.com/services, https://optiblack.com/customers, https://optiblack.com/book-a-call, https://optiblack.com/data-services, https://optiblack.com/crm-services and https://optiblack.com/ai-services have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 8 internal pages checked

    We fetched 8 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 8 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 8 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 7385
  • 1 small tap target

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

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of null (reading 'addEventListener')”.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 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 862 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 862 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Book a strategy call →”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Book a strategy call”, “Book a strategy call →” and “Book a call”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges and “100+ Businesses”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Mixpanel.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads HubSpot and Mixpanel (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies, 6 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.

  • 17 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 17 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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