Speed

4 to fix73
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    900 ms · 187 KiB

    About 187 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 41 KiB

    About 41 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 134 KiB

    10 images could be 134 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 132 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 390 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 15 ms

    15 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix71
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Your largest element takes 5.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 5.7 s

    5.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 5.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 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: 112 ms

    112 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 112 ms while loading. 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

100
  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (107 KiB) 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (84 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.30 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.30 g of CO₂e: 36.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.1 MB in 63 requests

    1.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.1 MB in 63 requests on a phone: images 331 KiB (34), scripts 283 KiB (9) and fonts 201 KiB (4). That is a lean page.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

Google 100100
2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 34 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 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: 46 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9286
  • Title is short (8 characters)

    Your title is only 8 characters: “PretaGov”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is short (45 characters)

    Your meta description is only 45 characters: “Internal AI that finds, calculates and cites.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • 4 links with vague text

    4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 35 internal links, 1 external

    The homepage links to 35 pages on pretagov.com.au and 1 external page.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Internal AI that finds, calculates and cites.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.pretagov.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • 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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.pretagov.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.pretagov.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.

3 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.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (789 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://www.pretagov.com/blog, https://www.pretagov.com/services/advise, https://www.pretagov.com/services/build and https://www.pretagov.com/services/operate have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.pretagov.com/contact-info has 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.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 19 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • 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 9287
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 8 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Executing inline event handler violates the following Content Security Policy directive 'script-src-attr 'none''. Eithe…”.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix81
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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 765 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 765 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “[email protected]”, “Contact us” and “Contact”.

  • 1 short form

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 26 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 4 phone links and 3 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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