Speed

10 to fix55
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    7.3 s · 7.8 MB

    16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (7.8 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    4.8 s · 1.0 MB

    About 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    3.0 s

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

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.1 s · 201 KiB

    About 201 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.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 7.4 MB and 584 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • scw.cloud adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    scw.cloud costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 6.5 MB 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.

  • Google CDN adds 450 ms

    450 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 450 ms of main-thread work and 742 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    504 KiB

    4 images could be 504 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Main-thread work: 2.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 194 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 109 ms

    109 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 109 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix33
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 12.3 s

    12.3 s

    Your largest element takes 12.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 16.5 s

    16.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.7 s

    7.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    Real visitors wait 2.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.15

    0.15

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

  • Largest content (LCP) got 37% slower for real visitors

    +37%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.2 s to 5.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 324 ms

    324 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 324 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 124 ms to 117 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 129 ms

    129 ms

    Real visitors wait 129 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). 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

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 10.1 MB in 48 requests

    10.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.1 MB in 48 requests on a phone: media 6.5 MB (2), scripts 1.9 MB (12) and images 896 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.85 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.85 g of CO₂e: 342.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 6990
  • 1 button without a name

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

  • 11 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (46 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 46 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 10 links without text

    10 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.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 10 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 32 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 37 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 32 passed and 5 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 10092
  • No structured data

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

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.prayon.com/sitemap_index.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 36 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 36 pages on prayon.com and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 142 characters

    Your meta description is 142 characters: “Phosphorus chemistry is vital to us all. We provide innovative technical solutions, world-class equipment and high-qual…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Enriching daily life through phosphorus chemistry”.

  • Title: 59 characters

    Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Ideal phosphate solutions, equipment and processes | Prayon”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.prayon.com/en/.

  • 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 and points crawlers to your sitemap.

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.prayon.com/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 (829 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://www.prayon.com/en/news/unlocking-value-from-emissions-the-benefits-of-gas-scrubbing-by-profile, https://www.prayon.com/en/news/prayon-and-afa-technical-workshop and https://www.prayon.com/en/news/prayon-announces-plans-to-acquire-hra have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.prayon.com/en/press-contact has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.prayon.com/en/products-applications took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 18 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 6 small tap targets

    6 of 22 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 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”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix58
  • 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 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 852 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 852 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact us”.

  • 1 short form

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 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 prayon.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
