rgdinc.com website review

7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 6.2 s.

10 images could be 5.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

7 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, cloudfront.net and website-files.com and others), adding 15.0 MB and 137 ms of main-thread time.

website-files.com costs a phone 15 ms of main-thread work and 14.3 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.

Your mobile performance score is 60 (desktop: 98). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 149 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

Google Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 582 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.

About 22 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.

2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 118 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10 KiB).

Desktop scores 98 but mobile only 60. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 10.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The first text or image appears after 5.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

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

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.

Your homepage downloads 15.3 MB in 87 requests on a phone: images 14.3 MB (31), fonts 574 KiB (30) and scripts 419 KiB (16). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

2 images further down the page (337 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

5 images (436 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.33 g of CO₂e: 519.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Your title is only 28 characters: “RGD Project Management, Inc.”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

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

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

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

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

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

The homepage links to 35 pages on rgdinc.com and 13 external pages.

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.

There is no https://rgdinc.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.

/, https://rgdinc.com/workshops and https://rgdinc.com/faq all use the title “RGD Project Management, Inc.”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

https://rgdinc.com/about, https://rgdinc.com/our-community, https://rgdinc.com/safety, https://rgdinc.com/services, https://rgdinc.com/program-management and https://rgdinc.com/project-history-copy and 5 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 16 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 of 8 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Mixed Content: The page at 'https://rgdinc.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script 'http://code.j…”.

7 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Mixed content”).

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 266 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity (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.

Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
