Speed

7 to fix74
  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and heap-api.com and others), adding 1.5 MB and 859 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    140 ms · 737 KiB

    About 737 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 140 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    856 KiB

    13 images could be 856 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Render-blocking requests

    850 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 643 ms

    643 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 643 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 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.

  • Font display

    500 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 500 ms).

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 158 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    142 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (142 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    13 KiB

    About 13 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 886 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix82
  • Time to Interactive: 16.4 s

    16.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.0 s

    6.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    Your largest element takes 3.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Global Last Mile. One API.”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.6 s).

  • Total Blocking Time: 219 ms

    219 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 219 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 3 images without width and height

    3 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 14.7 MB in 80 requests

    14.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 14.7 MB in 80 requests on a phone: media 11.9 MB (2), scripts 1.6 MB (25) and images 1.1 MB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images below the first screen load straight away

    5 images further down the page (337 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    12 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Capture-decran-2024-07-04-174944-1-1000x558.jpg at 823 px wide, shown at 246 px. Resized copies would save about 12 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (337 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.

  • About 4.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    4.17 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.17 g of CO₂e: 499.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 8794
  • 4 buttons without a name

    4 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Malformed lists

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

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 62 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 36 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 39 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 3 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 9298
  • 19 links with vague text

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

  • 105 internal links, 20 external

    The homepage links to 105 pages on qwilt.com and 20 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 141 characters

    Your meta description is 141 characters: “We have a better way to deliver content. Qwilt offers unmatched delivery quality, scalability, and economics for your m…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Global Last Mile. One API.”.

  • Title: 61 characters

    Your title is a healthy 61 characters: “Qwilt Open Edge Cloud | Delivering Next-Gen QoE from the Edge”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://qwilt.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://qwilt.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://qwilt.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: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (788 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://qwilt.com/service-providers/publisher-ecosystem, https://qwilt.com/investors and https://qwilt.com/compliance have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 43 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

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 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”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    29 of 30 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix75
  • 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: 5 customer or partner logos. 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 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 595 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 595 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Contact us”, “Learn more” and “Download now”.

  • 1 short form

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

  • Phone number on the homepage

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

  • 12 cookies set on arrival

    12

    Opening the homepage sets 12 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 22 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 22 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) 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 qwilt.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
