Speed

10 to fix66
  • Main-thread work: 4.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3.3 MB

    22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.3 MB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (JSDelivr CDN, Vimeo and website-files.com and others), adding 10.8 MB and 927 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 MB

    About 1.6 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    750 ms · 717 KiB

    24 images could be 717 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 66

    66/100

    Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Vimeo adds 244 ms

    244 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 244 ms of main-thread work and 6.1 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    600 ms

    16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.

  • website-files.com adds 97 ms

    97 ms

    website-files.com costs a phone 97 ms of main-thread work and 4.5 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.

  • JSDelivr CDN adds 450 ms

    450 ms

    JSDelivr CDN costs a phone 450 ms of main-thread work and 22 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

    150 ms · 40 KiB

    About 40 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.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 164 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    12 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix69
  • Time to Interactive: 25.7 s

    25.7 s

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

  • Speed Index: 9.4 s

    9.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    Your largest element takes 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Cobs”.

  • 28 images without width and height

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 273 ms

    273 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 273 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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.

  • 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

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 11.1 MB in 164 requests

    11.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.1 MB in 164 requests on a phone: other files 3.3 MB (38), media 3.1 MB (2) and scripts 2.8 MB (36). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    689bbcfcef17194ee8c7d8cd_Umamipapi BW 2-p-500.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (55 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 3.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.14 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.14 g of CO₂e: 376.6 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

7 to fixGoogle 8991
  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Frames without titles

    2 frames have no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what they contain.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (48 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 48 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.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 8 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 146 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9280
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • 8 links with vague text

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

  • 36 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 36 pages on ranged.com.au and 8 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 158 characters

    Your meta description is 158 characters: “Ranged offers a complete FMCG services offering from sales growth, financial advisory, legal advisory providing a compl…”.

  • Title: 54 characters

    Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “Ranged — Australian Consumer Goods Consulting Services”.

  • 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://www.ranged.com.au/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://ranged.com.au/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 (575 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix64
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://ranged.com.au/supermarket-101-course, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://ranged.com.au/services/fmcg-retail-sales-partnership and https://ranged.com.au/services/fmcg-retail-new-product-development have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages share a meta description

    https://ranged.com.au/why-us, https://ranged.com.au/in-the-media and https://ranged.com.au/blog use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 6 pages without an H1

    https://ranged.com.au/why-us, https://ranged.com.au/people, https://ranged.com.au/in-the-media, https://ranged.com.au/partners, https://ranged.com.au/contact and https://ranged.com.au/blog have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 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.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 5483
  • 9 small tap targets

    9 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 3 third-party cookies

    3 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.”).

  • 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”.

  • Browser-reported issues

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

100
  • 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 317 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 317 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact Us” and “Learn More”.

  • 14 calls to action

    The homepage has 14 calls to action, for example “Join Our Community”, “Contact Us” and “Learn More”.

  • 1 short form

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 26 testimonial or review blocks, 112 customer or partner logos and 2 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 3 email links.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and 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.

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies, 2 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.

  • 12 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 12 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 ranged.com.au, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
