planetbeyond.co.uk website review

20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (940 KiB).

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 1.6 s.

About 295 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 930 ms faster on a phone.

210 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Your mobile performance score is 75 (desktop: 92). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 203 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

2 images could be 45 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

10 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Fonts), adding 28 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

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 visitors see the first content after 3.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

Your largest element takes 4.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “PLANET BEYOND From intelligent systems to tailored enterpri…”.

Real visitors wait 3.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.15 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 4.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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

The layout shifts by 0.102 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.27 g of CO₂e: 32.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

Your title is only 13 characters: “Planet Beyond”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

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

No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

Your meta description is 278 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

No XML sitemap at https://planetbeyond.co.uk/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

A phone browser shows 1,072 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.

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.

There is no https://planetbeyond.co.uk/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.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “WebSocket connection to 'wss://planetbeyond.co.uk:30702/ws' failed: Establishing a tunnel via proxy server failed.”.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

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

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,072 words of visible text.

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
