Speed
Improve image delivery
1.1 s · 1.8 MB11 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.5 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 397 KiBAbout 397 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
850 ms · 464 KiB47 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (464 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58 (desktop: 64). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google/Doubleclick Ads and Hubspot and others), adding 1,009 KiB and 610 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 335 ms
335 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 335 ms of main-thread work and 645 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.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 165 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).
Legacy JavaScript
36 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 36 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
14 KiBAbout 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.

Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 605 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 15 ms
15 msYour server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 17.1 s
17.1 sYour largest element takes 17.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Specialists in Custom Circuit Board Assembly Turnkey & Labo…”.
Time to Interactive: 18.1 s
18.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.9 s
9.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s
3.3 sThe first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
9 images without width and height
9 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.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 162 ms
162 msScripts block the page for only 162 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
SQA-AS9100-2016.png weighs 1.4 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
1.4 MB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example SQA-AS9100-2016.png at 9,475 px wide, shown at 52 px. Resized copies would save about 1.4 MB.
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 148 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 148 requests on a phone: images 2.2 MB (54), scripts 1.0 MB (32) and fonts 150 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (1.4 MB) 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.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (152 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.00 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.00 g of CO₂e: 119.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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.
4 links without text
4 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.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
40 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: 40 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Specialists in Custom Circuit Board Assembly” and “Certified for Quality. Built for Reliability.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
8 links crawlers can't follow
8 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
51 internal links, 19 external
The homepage links to 51 pages on rbbsystems.com and 19 external pages.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.rbbsystems.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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://www.rbbsystems.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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (494 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

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 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 518 words of copy
The homepage carries about 518 words of visible text.
7 checks passed

A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
32 other companies contacted

A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.
