Speed

1 to fix96

  • 2,087 HTML elements

    The page has 2,087 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    250 KiB

    4 images could be 250 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 21 KiB

    About 21 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    100 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 100 ms.

  • 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.

Images and page weight

100

  • About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.15 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.15 g of CO₂e: 17.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed

  • Page weight: 533 KiB in 29 requests

    533 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 533 KiB in 29 requests on a phone: images 345 KiB (7), fonts 72 KiB (1) and scripts 46 KiB (18). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 9694

  • 21 text elements with low contrast

    21 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Summary elements must have discernible text (1 element)

    Summary elements must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 form fields without a label

    2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 2 links without text

    2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed

  • Every image has alt text

    All 456 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 44 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: 44 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9290

  • Title is short (6 characters)

    Your title is only 6 characters: “Saleae”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 2 links with vague text

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

  • 34 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 34 pages on saleae.com and 2 external pages.

7 checks passed

  • Meta description: 146 characters

    Your meta description is 146 characters: “Saleae builds logic analyzers and mixed-signal oscilloscopes for embedded engineers. Capture digital and analog signals…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Introducing Logic MSO”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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 and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.saleae.com/sitemap-index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83

  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.saleae.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.

1 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.

Other pages

100

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed

  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    88 of 95 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64

  • 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 134 words

    The homepage has only about 134 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.

3 checks passed

  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Learn More” and “Buy Now”.

  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Learn More”, “Buy Now” and “Digital Probe, 4-Channel MSO Buy Now”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    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.

1 checks passed

  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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