Speed

6 to fix71
  • Render-blocking requests

    3.0 s

    104 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.0 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    7.3 MB

    13 images could be 7.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Mobile performance score: 71

    71/100

    Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 183 KiB

    About 183 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    330 ms · 34 KiB

    About 34 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 330 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 263 ms

    263 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 263 ms of main-thread work and 178 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.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, JSDelivr CDN and Bootstrap CDN and others), adding 313 KiB and 389 ms of main-thread time.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 9 KiB

    9 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 157 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    28 KiB

    28 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    8 KiB

    2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8 KiB).

  • 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: 1.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 648 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 234 ms

    234 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 234 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 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.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 10.5 s

    10.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 10.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Your largest element takes 4.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “13.1 Juta”. Most of its time is element render delay (1.7 s).

  • Real-user LCP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

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

  • 11 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -4%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 112 ms to 109 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 99 ms

    99 ms

    Real visitors wait 99 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 539 ms

    539 ms

    Real visitors wait 539 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 98 ms

    98 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 98 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 10.0 MB in 207 requests

    10.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.0 MB in 207 requests on a phone: images 9.1 MB (15), scripts 629 KiB (85) and stylesheets 226 KiB (103). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images over 500 KB

    5 images weigh 5.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    604 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example AR-bg-home.png at 1,725 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 604 KiB.

  • 14 images in older formats

    14 images (7.5 MB) are 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.

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (4.0 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.84 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.84 g of CO₂e: 341.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

11 to fixGoogle 7784
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 7 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (42 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 42 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 8 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 20 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 36 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 10 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10086
  • No H1 headline

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

  • No structured data

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.

  • 130 internal links, 23 external

    The homepage links to 130 pages on pnb.com.my and 23 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 109 characters

    Your meta description is 109 characters: “Untuk meningkatkan kekayaan ekonomi masyarakat Bumiputera dan seluruh rakyat Malaysia, demi kemakmuran negara”.

  • Title: 46 characters

    Your title is a healthy 46 characters: “Laman Utama | Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB)”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.pnb.com.my/ms.

  • 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.pnb.com.my/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.pnb.com.my/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.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,535 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix78
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.pnb.com.my/ms and / all use the title “Laman Utama | Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB)”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.pnb.com.my/ms/kerjaya has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

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

  • 14 pages without an H1

    /, https://www.pnb.com.my/en, https://www.pnb.com.my/ms/tinjauan-ms, https://www.pnb.com.my/ms/perumpukan-aset-strategik-ms, https://www.pnb.com.my/ms/pelaburan-ekuiti-awam-ms and https://www.pnb.com.my/ms/pasaran-persendirian-ms and 8 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

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

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 8885
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 12 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

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

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Content security policy”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix42
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

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

  • 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 349 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 349 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 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 pnb.com.my, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
