Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.9 s · 357 KiBAbout 357 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 301 KiB22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (301 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
1.1 s · 98 KiBAbout 98 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.
Improve image delivery
1.5 MB11 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, InMobi and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 9.2 MB and 422 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
Vimeo adds 0 ms
0 msVimeo costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 6.3 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.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
InMobi adds 202 ms
202 msInMobi costs a phone 202 ms of main-thread work and 460 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.
Builder adds 0 ms
0 msBuilder costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 2.2 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Time to Interactive: 17.8 s
17.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.8 s
4.8 sThe first text or image appears after 4.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Tap response (INP) got 21% slower for real visitors
+21%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 122 ms to 162 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 32% slower for real visitors
+32%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 3.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 9.9 MB in 90 requests
9.9 MBYour homepage downloads 9.9 MB in 90 requests on a phone: media 6.3 MB (1), images 2.2 MB (55) and scripts 751 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 1.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
620 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example assets/899c30cfb67041108c959c75593ff238/8a7a178a5aaa4e3284b8 at 1,711 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 620 KiB.
10 images below the first screen load straight away
10 images further down the page (2.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image in older formats
1 image (1,022 KiB) is 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.
About 2.8 g of CO₂ per visit
2.81 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.81 g of CO₂e: 336.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
7 buttons without a name
7 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents (2 elements)
Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Images must have alternative text (2 elements)
Images must have alternative text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
3 text elements with low contrast
3 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.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (21 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 21 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (3 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
42 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: 42 passed and 11 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
67 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 67 pages on quantcast.com and 11 external pages.

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
22%A phone browser shows 1,469 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 323. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.quantcast.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.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.
Other pages
10 pages share a meta description
https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/ctv-advertising, https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/audio-advertising, https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/video-advertising, https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/display-advertising, https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/mobile-advertising and https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/native-advertising and 1 other use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
15 pages without an H1
https://www.quantcast.com/platform/overview, https://www.quantcast.com/platform/ai/q-suite, https://www.quantcast.com/platform/ai/q-plus, https://www.quantcast.com/platform/ai, https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/ctv-advertising and https://www.quantcast.com/solutions/omnichannel/audio-advertising and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Best practices
14 small tap targets
14 of 58 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 “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 1,469 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,469 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Book a Demo”.
5 calls to action
The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Book a Demo”, “Let's Get Started” and “Contact”.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before 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.
25 cookies set on arrival
25Opening the homepage sets 25 cookies (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.
10 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 10 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 quantcast.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
