Speed
Render-blocking requests
3.4 s2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.4 s.
Improve image delivery
1.5 s · 494 KiB6 images could be 494 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51 (desktop: 51). 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, website-files.com and cloudfront.net and others), adding 1.9 MB and 526 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 58 KiBAbout 58 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
website-files.com adds 190 ms
190 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 190 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 269 ms
269 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 269 ms of main-thread work and 512 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 JavaScript
210 KiBAbout 210 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 127 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
17 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (17 KiB).
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: 1.2 s
A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 574 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 22 ms

First Contentful Paint: 4.1 s
4.1 sThe first text or image appears after 4.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 10.9 s
10.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.298
0.298The layout shifts by 0.298 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Speed Index: 4.3 s
4.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
8 images without width and height
8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.2 MB in 42 requests
2.2 MBYour homepage downloads 2.2 MB in 42 requests on a phone: images 873 KiB (10), scripts 658 KiB (14) and fonts 584 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
656694fe5c3a14c07b48670a_Hero-Visual_Mobile-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).
4 images in older formats
4 images (307 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.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (169 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.61 g of CO₂e: 73.4 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
20 text elements with low contrast
20 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (39 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 39 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.
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 (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 18 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 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: 42 passed and 5 failed. 5 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 (“Meaningful engagement for every family” and “Learning starts with strong connections”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
Meta description is long (227 characters)
Your meta description is 227 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
33 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 33 pages on remind.com and 14 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 56 characters
Your title is a healthy 56 characters: “Remind | Communication for Teachers and Community Groups”.
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.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.remind.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 /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 (854 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
/terms and /admin-contact have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
/admin-contact has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
12 internal pages checked
We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.
6 checks passed

Email authentication score: 75/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:u1828595.wl.sendgrid.net include:_spf.google.com include:stspg-customer.com include:mail.zendesk.com -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “k1” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
