Speed

14 to fix34
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    25.2 s · 5.6 MB

    88 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.6 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    15.4 s · 2.9 MB

    16 images could be 2.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 15.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.6 s

    23 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.6 s.

  • YouTube adds 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    YouTube costs a phone 1.0 s of main-thread work and 1.9 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 1.1 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Mobile performance score: 34

    34/100

    Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 7.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, YouTube and Google CDN and others), adding 4.4 MB and 3.2 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 2.2 MB

    About 2.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 296 KiB

    About 296 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 429 ms

    429 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 429 ms of main-thread work and 736 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.

  • Facebook adds 388 ms

    388 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 388 ms of main-thread work and 307 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.

  • Font display

    350 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 350 ms).

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 297 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    200 ms · 22 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 22 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    11 KiB

    11 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 44 ms

    44 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 44 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix33
  • 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: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    Real visitors wait 6.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 5.4 s

    5.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 5.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 31.6 s

    31.6 s

    Your largest element takes 31.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Slide 8”.

  • Speed Index: 15.6 s

    15.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 15.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 46.8 s

    46.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 46.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.4 s

    3.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user INP: 220 ms

    220 ms

    Real visitors wait 220 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • 2 images without width and height

    2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) got 14% slower for real visitors

    +14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 194 ms to 230 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.3 s to 5.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix35
  • Page weight: 10.3 MB in 201 requests

    10.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.3 MB in 201 requests on a phone: images 4.7 MB (38), scripts 4.3 MB (63) and other files 410 KiB (62). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images over 500 KB

    3 images weigh 1.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 8 images far larger than shown

    2.3 MB

    8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 7.webp at 1,917 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 2.3 MB.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (63 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 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.91 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.91 g of CO₂e: 349.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 7888
  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 31 text elements with low contrast

    31 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.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (20 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 20 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 21 form fields without a label

    21 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h6 and h2 → h4), 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 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 9 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8586
  • Meta description is long (188 characters)

    Your meta description is 188 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, FAQPage, Organization and WebPage) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: potentialAction.target is not an absolute URL ("{search_term_string}")”.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 118 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 118 pages on orbenergy.com and 5 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “TAKE CONTROL OVER RISING COSTS OF DIESEL AND GRID POWER SWITCH TO ROOFTOP SOLAR AND START SAVING TODAY”.

  • Title: 59 characters

    Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Rooftop Solar Solutions for Businesses & Homes | Orb Energy”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.orbenergy.com/.

  • 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.orbenergy.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.orbenergy.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.

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: 6 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,888 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 72 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 4688
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 19 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 5 third-party cookies

    5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 5 distorted images

    5 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

  • 4 low-resolution images

    4 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79
  • 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.

  • A 9-field form

    Your longest form asks for 9 fields (8 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • About 1,177 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,177 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Download Our Solar Finance Brochure Here”, “Contact us and start saving today” and “LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR SOLAR PANELS”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 16 testimonial or review blocks, 7 customer or partner logos, 2 trust badges and “95,000+ Happy Customers”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and LinkedIn Insight.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 2 email links.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel and 1 more (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.

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies, 2 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.

  • 31 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 31 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 orbenergy.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
