Speed

7 to fix58
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3.0 s · 1.7 MB

    63 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.7 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.4 s · 387 KiB

    About 387 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.5 s

    25 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.1 s · 158 KiB

    About 158 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 58

    58/100

    Your mobile performance score is 58 (desktop: 65). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 279 KiB

    8 images could be 279 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Vimeo adds 31 ms

    31 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 31 ms of main-thread work and 507 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.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Vimeo and Google Fonts and others), adding 766 KiB and 222 ms of main-thread time.

  • Font display

    250 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 123 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

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

  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 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 CLS: 0.39

    0.39

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.39 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.2 s

    13.2 s

    Your largest element takes 13.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Training and Qualifications”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 7.0 s

    7.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 13.5 s

    13.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 13.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.0 s

    7.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 88 ms to 80 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 78 ms

    78 ms

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 446 ms

    446 ms

    Real visitors wait 446 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 47% faster for real visitors

    -47%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.1 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 68 ms

    68 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 68 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

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 11.4 MB in 77 requests

    11.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.4 MB in 77 requests on a phone: media 8.9 MB (1), images 1.4 MB (36) and scripts 666 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 18 images below the first screen load straight away

    18 images further down the page (828 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 7 images far larger than shown

    82 KiB

    7 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example CP-London-2026-103.jpg at 1,080 px wide, shown at 330 px. Resized copies would save about 82 KiB.

  • About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.24 g of CO₂e: 388.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8390
  • 3 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Frames without titles

    2 frames have no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what they contain.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (13 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 13 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

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

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 4 links without text

    4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 35 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 38 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

Google 100100
  • 58 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 58 pages on pacey.org.uk and 16 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 149 characters

    Your meta description is 149 characters: “Coram PACEY supports childminders, nannies and early years professionals with membership, insurance, training, expert a…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Supporting childminders and early years professionals”.

  • Title: 52 characters

    Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “Support for Childminders & Early Years | Coram PACEY”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.corampacey.org.uk/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.corampacey.org.uk/sitemap.xml.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,228 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.corampacey.org.uk/llms.txt (5 KiB, 29 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

4 to fix81
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.corampacey.org.uk/membership and https://www.corampacey.org.uk/www.corampacey.org.uk/membership all use the title “Membership - Coram PACEY”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 4 pages share a meta description

    https://www.corampacey.org.uk/membership and https://www.corampacey.org.uk/www.corampacey.org.uk/membership use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.corampacey.org.uk/www.corampacey.org.uk/membership, whose canonical is https://www.corampacey.org.uk/membership. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.corampacey.org.uk/information-hub has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.corampacey.org.uk/membership/member-benefits/insurance took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 31 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 7769
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.corampacey.org.uk/.

  • Scrolls sideways on phones

    On a 390 px-wide phone the page scrolls sideways, a sign that something is wider than the screen.

  • 1 third-party cookie

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

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    14 of 14 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • 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: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 1,063 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,063 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “JOIN” and “Shop”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Join”, “Shop” and “Start your childcare journey”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

  • 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

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, 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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 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 pacey.org.uk, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
