Speed

11 to fix55
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    9.2 s · 5.4 MB

    88 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.4 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    8.2 s

    25 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 8.2 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    2.7 s · 627 KiB

    About 627 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.5 s · 533 KiB

    About 533 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    3.0 s

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 3.0 s).

  • Document request latency

    1.0 s · 197 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive about 1.0 s sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Reduce initial server response time

    1.0 s

    Reduce initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 1.0 s on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 2.2 MB

    12 images could be 2.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 56). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 1,986 HTML elements

    The page has 1,986 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Server response: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Your server takes 1.1 s to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 110 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts), adding 234 KiB and 49 ms of main-thread time.

  • Minify CSS

    7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 462 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix50
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Real-user LCP: 6.1 s

    6.1 s

    Real visitors wait 6.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 5.2 s

    5.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 5.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Real visitors wait 4.2 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 9.4 s

    9.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 9.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.5 s

    18.5 s

    Your largest element takes 18.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below. Most of its time is resource load delay (11.5 s).

  • Speed Index: 23.9 s

    23.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 23.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.6 s

    21.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

3 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.052

    0.052

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.052, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 32 ms

    32 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 32 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

4 to fix43
  • Page weight: 6.2 MB in 99 requests

    6.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.2 MB in 99 requests on a phone: images 3.9 MB (47), scripts 1.1 MB (22) and stylesheets 752 KiB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 11 images in older formats

    11 images (1.8 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.

  • 5 images below the first screen load straight away

    5 images further down the page (1.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    93 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example rare_logo-min.png at 2,560 px wide, shown at 26 px. Resized copies would save about 93 KiB.

  • About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.76 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.76 g of CO₂e: 211.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8391
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one contentinfo 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 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.

  • 6 links without text

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

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h6, h2 → h6 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 89 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 38 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 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

2 to fixGoogle 9290
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Premium IFM Solutions For Every Facility Needs” and “Proven Impact, Across Industries”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (176 characters)

    Your meta description is 176 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 83 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 83 pages on raregrp.com and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 60 characters

    Your title is a healthy 60 characters: “Integrated Facility Management & Infection Control Solutions”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

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

  • Open Graph tags complete

  • 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://raregrp.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://raregrp.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 (1,144 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 21 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before 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.

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (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.

  • 3 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 3 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 raregrp.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
