Speed

3 to fix70
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.6 s

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

  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

    Your mobile performance score is 70 (desktop: 94). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 1,602 HTML elements

    The page has 1,602 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 299 KiB and 188 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    206 KiB

    About 206 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 147 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    100 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    50 KiB

    About 50 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    36 KiB

    2 images could be 36 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 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, 420 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors wait 1.3 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +8%

  • Largest content (LCP) got 13% faster for real visitors

    -13%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 1.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    principal-sloan-principal-connect-homepage-banner-600x350.we is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.42 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.42 g of CO₂e: 50.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.5 MB in 103 requests

    1.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.5 MB in 103 requests on a phone: scripts 593 KiB (42), images 442 KiB (14) and fonts 299 KiB (6). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9795
  • 17 text elements with low contrast

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

  • [role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text (12 elements)

    [role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (4 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (4 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 8595
  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 149 internal links, 12 external

    The homepage links to 149 pages on p-led.com and 12 external pages.

8 checks passed

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (684 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://principalsloan.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 43 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

    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 fix75
  • 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 direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • 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 488 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 488 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “LEARN MORE”.

    The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Where to Buy” and “Contact Headquarters”.

  • 2 short forms

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 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 p-led.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
