Mobile performance score: 42
42/100Your mobile performance score is 42 (desktop: 61). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Improve image delivery
650 ms · 12.2 MB27 images could be 12.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 768 KiBAbout 768 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, ContentSquare and Hubspot and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 718 ms
718 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 718 ms of main-thread work and 1,019 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.
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
362 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (362 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 54 KiBAbout 54 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 193 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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 CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 19.8 MB in 134 requests
19.8 MBYour homepage downloads 19.8 MB in 134 requests on a phone: images 16.9 MB (40), scripts 1.9 MB (50) and fonts 868 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
74 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 240404-planet-mark-working-groups-34-min.jpg at 1,500 px wide, shown at 351 px. Resized copies would save about 74 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (145 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (145 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 5.6 g of CO₂ per visit
5.62 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.62 g of CO₂e: 673.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Positive tabindex
3 elements have a tabindex above 0, which scrambles the keyboard order.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (65 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 65 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.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (2 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 39 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 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 passed and 9 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
19 links with vague text
19 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
115 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 115 pages on planetmark.com and 10 external pages.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

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 (2,593 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
https://www.planetmark.com/talk-to-our-experts is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages without a meta description
https://www.planetmark.com/community/case-studies and https://www.planetmark.com/community/collective-impact have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
