Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.8 s · 2.7 MBAbout 2.7 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.8 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.7 s72 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.7 s.
Mobile performance score: 32
32/100Your mobile performance score is 32 (desktop: 44). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 8.1 s
A phone's processor spends 8.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,388 HTML elements
The page has 3,388 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Intercom and Google CDN and others), adding 4.3 MB and 2.6 s of main-thread time.
YouTube adds 934 ms
934 msYouTube costs a phone 934 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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.
Improve image delivery
700 ms · 265 KiB2 images could be 265 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 700 ms faster on a phone.
Intercom adds 723 ms
723 msIntercom costs a phone 723 ms of main-thread work and 971 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.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 258 KiBAbout 258 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
350 ms · 293 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (293 KiB).
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 490 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google CDN adds 415 ms
415 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 415 ms of main-thread work and 733 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 187 ms
187 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 187 ms of main-thread work and 316 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 45 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 45 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
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 JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 11.3 MB in 311 requests
11.3 MBYour homepage downloads 11.3 MB in 311 requests on a phone: scripts 5.4 MB (120), images 4.8 MB (65) and stylesheets 416 KiB (83). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (57 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit
3.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.21 g of CO₂e: 385.5 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
12 text elements with low contrast
12 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (18 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 18 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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 66 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “HOME - Quadco”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
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.
487 internal links, 19 external
The homepage links to 487 pages on quadco.com and 19 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “YOUR SOURCE FOR COMPLETE FORESTRY EQUIPMENT SOLUTIONS”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.quadco.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
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.quadco.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
No llms.txt
There is no /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 (1,457 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
/product-category/attachments and /attachments-by-type all use the title “Attachments by Type - Quadco”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages without a meta description
/product-category/attachments, /attachments-by-type, /product-category/attachments/felling-heads, /product-category/attachments/felling-heads/high-speed-disc-saws, /product-category/attachments/quadco/felling-heads-quadco/high-speed-disc-saws-felling-heads-quadco/b-models-high-speed-disc-saws-felling-heads-quadco and /product-category/attachments/felling-heads/high-speed-disc-saws/c-models have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
7 pages share a meta description
/product/24b and /product/27b use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /product-category/attachments, whose canonical is /attachments-by-type. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 155 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
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
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.quadco.com/.
7 third-party cookies
7 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
Deprecated browser APIs
The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
3 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
13 of 14 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (quadco.com).
Valid certificate (53 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for quadco.com and is valid for another 53 days.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://quadco.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 52 links work
All 52 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 12 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 22 days
quadco.com is registered until Nov 2026. If it lapses, the site and its email stop working and someone else can buy the name. Renew it, and turn on auto-renew.
No CAA record
quadco.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
quadco.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
1 checks passed
Domain is 29 years old
29 yearsquadco.com was registered in Nov 1996 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 3 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
About 739 words of copy
The homepage carries about 739 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
13 calls to action
The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Contact us” and “Learn More”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, Microsoft Clarity and Hotjar.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 90/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
3 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Meta Pixel and 1 more (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.
13 cookies set on arrival
13Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies, 3 of them by other companies (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.
35 other companies contacted
