saulsbury.com website review

About 227 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

6 images could be 2.0 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

Your mobile performance score is 60 (desktop: 82). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 36 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.

3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 331 ms of main-thread work and 350 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.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, cdn-cookieyes.com and Google Fonts and others), adding 570 KiB and 338 ms of main-thread time.

4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 200 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

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.

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.

Your largest element takes 7.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Building the infrastructure needed to power the future”.

The first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 7.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Real visitors wait 1.2 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 226 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 118 ms to 113 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 10.2 MB in 37 requests on a phone: media 7.4 MB (1), images 2.1 MB (14) and scripts 499 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.90 g of CO₂e: 348.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

5 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

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

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 16 characters: “Home - Saulsbury”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: missing name”.

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

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

The homepage links to 115 pages on saulsbury.com and 2 external pages.

https://www.saulsbury.com/careers/employee-resources, https://www.saulsbury.com/supplier-resources, https://www.saulsbury.com/our-legacy, https://www.saulsbury.com/core-values, https://www.saulsbury.com/leadership and https://www.saulsbury.com/health-safety-environment-and-quality and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 39 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

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

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 429 words of visible text.

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

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

Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
