Speed

10 to fix46
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.5 s

    9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 46

    46/100

    Your mobile performance score is 46. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 875 KiB

    About 875 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and Cookiebot and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 549 ms

    549 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 549 ms of main-thread work and 557 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 CDN adds 433 ms

    433 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 433 ms of main-thread work and 741 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 282 KiB

    15 images could be 282 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 3.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Font display

    350 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 350 ms).

  • 2,536 HTML elements

    The page has 2,536 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 150 KiB

    10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (150 KiB).

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 219 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 45 KiB

    About 45 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. 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.

  • Minify CSS

    3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 101 ms

    101 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 101 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Time to Interactive: 25.7 s

    25.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.1 s

    9.1 s

    Your largest element takes 9.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Una banca diferente, creada para ti”.

  • Speed Index: 8.7 s

    8.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 791 ms

    791 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 791 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 18 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 11% slower for real visitors

    +11%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 169 ms to 186 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 16% slower for real visitors

    +16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 0.9 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors wait 1.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 134 ms

    134 ms

    Real visitors wait 134 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 429 ms

    429 ms

    Real visitors wait 429 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.005

    0.005

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.005, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 5.0 MB in 160 requests

    5.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 160 requests on a phone: images 2.1 MB (61), scripts 1.8 MB (43) and fonts 551 KiB (11). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 19 images in older formats

    19 images (1.3 MB) 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.

  • 11 images below the first screen load straight away

    11 images further down the page (353 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.41 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.41 g of CO₂e: 169.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8889
  • 6 tap targets too small

    6 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 42 images without alt text

    42 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (70 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 70 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • 17 links without text

    17 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 6 form fields without a label

    6 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500% (2 elements)

    Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500%: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 7783
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.r4.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at r4.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • 10 links crawlers can't follow

    10 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 140 internal links, 18 external

    The homepage links to 140 pages on r4.com and 18 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Meta description: 137 characters

    Your meta description is 137 characters: “Somos un banco español especializado en servicios de inversión, gestión patrimonial y mercados de capitales para los qu…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Somos un banco de inversión especializado en gestión y mercados de capitales”.

  • Title: 38 characters

    Your title is a healthy 38 characters: “Banco de inversión en España | Renta 4”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.r4.com/.

AI search readiness

1 to fix81
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

1 checks passed
  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,376 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix70
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://www.r4.com/portal, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.r4.com/abrir-cuenta has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.r4.com/abrir-cuenta took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 90 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • 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 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 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_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    17 of 18 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix42
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • A 9-field form

    Your longest form asks for 9 fields (8 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • 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 1,352 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,352 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email 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 Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 r4.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
