rggedu.com website review

The page has 3,276 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, rechargecdn.com and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.1 MB and 328 ms of main-thread time.

A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 683 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Shopify costs a phone 137 ms of main-thread work and 544 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.

rechargecdn.com costs a phone 93 ms of main-thread work and 298 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 248 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

5 images could be 219 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 25 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 120 ms faster on a phone.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 92 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (45 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

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

The page becomes fully interactive after 8.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Your largest element takes 2.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “PRO EDU”.

Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 332 requests on a phone: scripts 1,017 KiB (151), other files 894 KiB (151) and images 574 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.79 g of CO₂e: 94.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

The homepage links to 90 pages on rggedu.com and 9 external pages.

Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude search (Claude-SearchBot), Claude (Claude-User), Perplexity (PerplexityBot) and Perplexity (Perplexity-User) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.

https://proedu.com/blogs/news/free-dramatic-portraiture-lighting-class-w-chris-knight-tutorial is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

https://proedu.com/pages/instructors has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 64 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 of 10 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

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

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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

The homepage carries about 860 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo (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 11 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 16 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
