Speed

14 to fix31
  • Render-blocking requests

    5.0 s

    48 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.0 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.9 s · 1.1 MB

    About 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.2 s · 218 KiB

    About 218 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 31

    31/100

    Your mobile performance score is 31 (desktop: 44). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 8.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 8.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 3,197 HTML elements

    The page has 3,197 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    2.9 MB

    17 images could be 2.9 MB 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, Google CDN and tidio.co and others), adding 3.8 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 735 ms

    735 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 735 ms of main-thread work and 553 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 CDN adds 517 ms

    517 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 517 ms of main-thread work and 734 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 396 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 65 KiB

    10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (65 KiB).

  • Vimeo adds 104 ms

    104 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 104 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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.

  • tidio.co adds 148 ms

    148 ms

    tidio.co costs a phone 148 ms of main-thread work and 515 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 28 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 28 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    9 KiB

    9 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 12 ms

    12 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 12 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • 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 TTFB: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 10.2 s

    10.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 10.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 25.3 s

    25.3 s

    Your largest element takes 25.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “AutoAssist Web Banner Mobile”.

  • Time to Interactive: 36.7 s

    36.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 36.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.2 s

    13.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Real visitors wait 3.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 3.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 87 ms

    87 ms

    Real visitors wait 87 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Tap response (INP) got 23% faster for real visitors

    -23%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 115 ms to 90 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 10.7 MB in 239 requests

    10.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.7 MB in 239 requests on a phone: images 5.4 MB (53), scripts 2.6 MB (85) and other files 1.7 MB (38). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Sharp_SW-100H_saw-400x205.png 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).

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (164 KiB) are 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.

  • About 3.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.04 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.04 g of CO₂e: 365.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8992
  • 13 tap targets too small

    13 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 6 text elements with low contrast

    6 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.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 118 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9278
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is long (68 characters)

    Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Manual Machine & CNC Manufacturing Retailer | Sharp Industries, Inc.”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 7 links crawlers can't follow

    7 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 220 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 220 pages on sharp-industries.com and 3 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “Shop a leading manual machine and CNC manufacturing retailer for quality equipment. Sharp Industries, Inc. offers relia…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://sharp-industries.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Article, ImageObject, LocalBusiness, Organization and Person.

  • 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://sharp-industries.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

3 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) and description would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,393 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 59 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 5483
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 3 third-party cookies

    3 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix89
  • 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.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • About 846 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 846 words of visible text.

8 checks passed
  • 18 calls to action

    The homepage has 18 calls to action, for example “Request a Quote”, “Contact Us” and “Contact Sharp”.

  • 2 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 25 testimonial or review blocks and 6 customer or partner logos.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 21 cookies set on arrival

    21

    Opening the homepage sets 21 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (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.

  • 28 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 28 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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