Speed

5 to fix63
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.0 s · 733 KiB

    24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (733 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 63

    63/100

    Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    800 ms · 138 KiB

    1 image could be 138 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 182 KiB

    About 182 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.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 58 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Unpkg, hubspotusercontent-na1.net and Hubspot and others), adding 190 KiB and 24 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    15 KiB

    About 15 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 151 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 12 ms

    12 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 12 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.3 s

    8.3 s

    Your largest element takes 8.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “SEARCH 500,000+ PRODUCTS”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.3 s

    8.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Real-user INP: 214 ms

    214 ms

    Real visitors wait 214 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) got 14% slower for real visitors

    +14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 187 ms to 213 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors wait 1.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • 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: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 359 ms

    359 ms

    Real visitors wait 359 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 17% faster for real visitors

    -17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 8 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 5.6 MB in 47 requests

    5.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.6 MB in 47 requests on a phone: media 4.6 MB (2), scripts 419 KiB (17) and images 323 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (36 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.59 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.59 g of CO₂e: 191.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8292
  • 1 button without a name

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

  • 9 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Malformed lists

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

  • 4 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 6 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 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

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • Title is long (69 characters)

    Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Provi | The B2B alcohol marketplace for bars, restaurants, and retail”.

  • 30 internal links, 14 external

    The homepage links to 30 pages on provi.com and 14 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 105 characters

    Your meta description is 105 characters: “Manage your beverage inventory. Connect with your reps. Order what you need. All in one place with Provi.”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Search Products From All Your Distributors in One Place”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.provi.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.

  • XML sitemap found

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

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.provi.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 (1,369 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix81
  • 4 pages share a title

    https://www.provi.com/buyers, https://www.provi.com/distributors, https://www.provi.com/reps and https://www.provi.com/brands all use the title “Provi | The all-in-one alcohol marketplace for bars & restaurants”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://www.provi.com/about-us, https://www.provi.com/careers and https://www.provi.com/contact have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages share a meta description

    https://www.provi.com/distributors, https://www.provi.com/reps and https://www.provi.com/brands use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 page without an H1

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

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.provi.com/contact 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.

  • 12 internal pages checked

    We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 12 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 12 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    11 of 13 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix57
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 99 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 opening hours

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

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 1,248 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,248 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “SIGN UP” and “Get Started”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and HubSpot.

Privacy and tracking

  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Ketch) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 33 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 33 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Ketch

    A consent management tool (Ketch) loads with the page.

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