Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.7 s · 754 KiBAbout 754 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.7 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 3.6 MB66 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.6 MB).
Improve image delivery
1.7 MB12 images could be 1.7 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Google Tag Manager and Vimeo and others), adding 1.9 MB and 375 ms of main-thread time.
Font display
450 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 450 ms).
Vimeo adds 61 ms
61 msVimeo costs a phone 61 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 71 KiBAbout 71 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 113 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
25 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 25 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 957 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 41 ms
41 msYour server sent the HTML in 41 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 23.7 s
23.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 23.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.6 s
4.6 sThe first text or image appears after 4.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.4 s
8.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.6 s
4.6 sYour largest element takes 4.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Make Preneed Your New Superpower”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.6 s).
82 images without width and height
82 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 107 ms
107 msScripts block the page for only 107 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.1 MB in 112 requests
5.1 MBYour homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 112 requests on a phone: images 3.2 MB (47), scripts 1.5 MB (27) and fonts 272 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
connection-video-bg.png weighs 910 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
5 images far larger than shown
1.0 MB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example connection-video-bg.png at 2,346 px wide, shown at 355 px. Resized copies would save about 1.0 MB.
12 images in older formats
12 images (2.1 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.
6 images below the first screen load straight away
6 images further down the page (1.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.45 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.45 g of CO₂e: 174.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
48 images without alt text
48 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (15 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 15 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.
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.
61 links without text
61 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6, h2 → h4 and h4 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
35 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: 35 passed and 10 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (6 characters)
Your title is only 6 characters: “Precoa”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
25 links with vague text
25 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://precoa.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
60 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 60 pages on precoa.com and 7 external pages.
2 checks passed
Meta description: 142 characters
Your meta description is 142 characters: “Precoa is the national leader in the preneed industry, helping families plan today so loved ones can focus on connectio…”.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
AI search readiness
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://precoa.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 (964 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 pages share a title
/, https://precoa.com/proactive-preneed, https://precoa.com/testimonials, https://precoa.com/insights, https://precoa.com/about and https://precoa.com/contact and 9 others all use the title “Precoa”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
14 pages share a meta description
https://precoa.com/proactive-preneed, https://precoa.com/testimonials, https://precoa.com/insights, https://precoa.com/about, https://precoa.com/contact and https://precoa.com/freemsa and 8 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
10 pages without an H1
https://precoa.com/testimonials, https://precoa.com/contact, https://precoa.com/testimonials/sunset, https://precoa.com/testimonials/sytsema, https://precoa.com/testimonials/krause and https://precoa.com/testimonials/walton and 4 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
https://precoa.com/contact and https://precoa.com/freemsa have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
