Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 342 KiBAbout 342 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 494 KiB3 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 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.4 s · 279 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (279 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49 (desktop: 82). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Optanon and others), adding 946 KiB and 623 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 322 ms
322 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 322 ms of main-thread work and 482 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 CSS
150 ms · 41 KiBAbout 41 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 21 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 21 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 167 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 82 but mobile only 49. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Minify CSS
7 KiB7 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.2 s
A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 656 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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.
Real-user LCP: 4.7 s
4.7 sReal visitors wait 4.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 4.0 s
4.0 sReal visitors see the first content after 4.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 3.1 s
3.1 sReal visitors wait 3.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 8.0 s
8.0 sThe first text or image appears after 8.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 15.7 s
15.7 sYour largest element takes 15.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “All the tools you need to hit the road”.
Time to Interactive: 15.7 s
15.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.0 s
8.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 31% slower for real visitors
+31%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 153 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 341 ms
341 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 341 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
6 images without width and height
6 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
3 checks passed
Real-user CLS: 0.03
0.03For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.03 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest content (LCP) got 10% faster for real visitors
-10%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.9 s to 4.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.044
0.044The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.044, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
matt-duncan-IUY_3DvM__w-unsplash-2-1.jpg 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).
1 image far larger than shown
157 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example matt-duncan-IUY_3DvM__w-unsplash-2-1.jpg at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 157 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (250 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (144 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.48 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.48 g of CO₂e: 57.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Page weight: 1.7 MB in 55 requests
1.7 MBYour homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 55 requests on a phone: scripts 951 KiB (19), images 612 KiB (12) and fonts 78 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 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.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
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 9 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
4 links crawlers can't follow
4 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
9 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 9 pages on roadpass.com and 7 external pages.

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://roadpass.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 (240 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://roadpass.com/privacy-policy and https://roadpass.com/terms-of-service have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
https://roadpass.com/support 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.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
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 social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
Only about 190 words
The homepage has only about 190 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
