Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.9 s · 2.1 MBAbout 2.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.9 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
3.8 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.8 s.
Mobile performance score: 32
32/100Your mobile performance score is 32 (desktop: 59). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.5 s
A phone's processor spends 7.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Wistia, chilipiper.com and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 4.2 MB and 2.7 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
850 ms · 711 KiB25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (711 KiB).
chilipiper.com adds 598 ms
598 mschilipiper.com costs a phone 598 ms of main-thread work and 2.2 MB 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.
Wistia adds 686 ms
686 msWistia costs a phone 686 ms of main-thread work and 757 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 573 ms
573 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 573 ms of main-thread work and 718 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
300 ms · 98 KiBAbout 98 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 91 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 91 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
onelink-edge.com adds 255 ms
255 msonelink-edge.com costs a phone 255 ms of main-thread work and 77 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 203 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
100 ms · 90 KiB4 images could be 90 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 33 KiB33 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 59 but mobile only 32. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

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
2 buttons without a name

2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (1 element)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (23 elements)

Zoom is disabled

7 links without text
7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6, h2 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

Every image has alt text

42 automated accessibility rules passed

SEO
Title is long (69 characters)

Meta description is long (161 characters)
Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
109 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 109 pages on servicechannel.com and 14 external pages.
6 checks passed

No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 941 words of copy
The homepage carries about 941 words of visible text.

10 cookies set on arrival
10Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
