Render-blocking requests
1.8 s14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.
Mobile performance score: 88
88/100Your mobile performance score is 88. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
485 KiB7 images could be 485 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and Clarity and others), adding 566 KiB and 355 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
192 KiB49 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (192 KiB).
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 108 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
94 KiBAbout 94 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.1 s
A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 547 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 7.1 s
7.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 8.8 s
8.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 8.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s
2.4 sThe first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
15 images without width and height
15 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (517 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
182 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example iStock-1348372241_COMPRESSED.jpg at 2,880 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 182 KiB.
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.37 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.37 g of CO₂e: 45.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 79 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 79 requests on a phone: images 701 KiB (29), scripts 399 KiB (17) and fonts 179 KiB (6). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (1 element)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 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 (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 34 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 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (75 characters)
Your title is 75 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Third-party logistics (3PL) services | Canada, US & UK | Metro Supply Chain”.
Meta description is long (169 characters)
Your meta description is 169 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.
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.
105 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 105 pages on sci.ca and 3 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Third-party logistics services for strategic, scalable growth”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.metroscg.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: FAQPage and Organization.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.metroscg.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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 /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 (1,403 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
11 of 11 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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 opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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 713 words of copy
The homepage carries about 713 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: “Request a consultation”.
5 calls to action

1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Microsoft Clarity (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.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
21 other companies contacted

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
