Speed

10 to fix62
  • Improve image delivery

    1.2 s · 793 KiB

    23 images could be 793 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.2 s · 423 KiB

    About 423 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    850 ms · 434 KiB

    77 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (434 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 62

    62/100

    Your mobile performance score is 62 (desktop: 75). 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, Facebook and Hubspot and others), adding 1.1 MB and 816 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    900 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 133 KiB

    About 133 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 402 ms

    402 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 402 ms of main-thread work and 505 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 35 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 35 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 2.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 161 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    8 KiB

    8 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 10.6 s

    10.6 s

    Your largest element takes 10.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “learn more about Rinsed”.

  • Time to Interactive: 16.1 s

    16.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 16.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 990 ms

    990 ms

    Real visitors wait 990 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 282 ms

    282 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 282 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 96 ms to 94 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

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

  • Real-user FCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.6 MB in 115 requests

    2.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 115 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (32), images 1.2 MB (54) and stylesheets 177 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (91 KiB) 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.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.74 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.74 g of CO₂e: 88.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 8592
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h2 → h5 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 59 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9286
  • No structured data

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

  • Meta description is long (170 characters)

    Your meta description is 170 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • 67 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 67 pages on rinsed.com and 7 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Hit your car wash membership goals”.

  • Title: 58 characters

    Your title is a healthy 58 characters: “Rinsed: Car Wash Customer Relationship Management Software”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.rinsed.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.rinsed.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.rinsed.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 (927 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 pages share a title

    / and https://www.rinsed.com/the-car-wash-crm all use the title “Rinsed: Car Wash Customer Relationship Management Software”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.rinsed.com/blog has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.rinsed.com/events has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7782
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=97104913&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=5ebf25a0-748a-4957-864b-56023d60d7c8&bo=1&sid=072a7050cc7911f1b2ea299694fe16f5&vid=072a7470cc7911f1b6ad758529a09a22&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=91.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Browser-reported issues

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

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    18 of 20 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix90
  • No direct contact details

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

  • No form on the homepage

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

  • 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 834 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 834 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Get a Demo”.

  • 16 calls to action

    The homepage has 16 calls to action, for example “Pricing”, “Get a Demo” and “Learn More”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 67 testimonial or review blocks, 17 customer or partner logos, 1 trust badge and “over 10,000,000 active members”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 23 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 23 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

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

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 rinsed.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
