Speed

9 to fix87
  • Mobile performance score: 87

    87/100

    Your mobile performance score is 87 (desktop: 91). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, hsappstatic.net and hubspotusercontent-na1.net and others), adding 1.2 MB and 652 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 385 KiB

    About 385 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 330 KiB

    64 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (330 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    463 KiB

    1 image could be 463 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 233 ms

    233 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 233 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1,938 HTML elements

    The page has 1,938 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 119 ms

    119 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 119 ms of main-thread work and 397 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

    150 ms · 70 KiB

    About 70 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

    150 ms

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

  • 12 long tasks on the main thread

    12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 114 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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: 13 ms

    13 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 13 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

    15.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    Your largest element takes 3.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Transform Your Operations With Intelligent Digital Twin Sim…”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

  • Real-user TTFB: 727 ms

  • Total Blocking Time: 200 ms

    200 ms

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.015

    0.015

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.015, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.1 MB in 119 requests

    2.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 119 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (33), images 596 KiB (17) and stylesheets 169 KiB (28). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.59 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.59 g of CO₂e: 70.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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 9494
  • 17 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 13 tap targets too small

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

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 4 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 89 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10097
  • No social preview image

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

  • 103 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 103 pages on simio.com and 11 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 132 characters

    Your meta description is 132 characters: “Simio’s digital twin simulation software enables real-time modeling and predictive analytics to optimize performance an…”.

  • One H1 headline

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.simio.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), 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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,360 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.simio.com/llms.txt (34 KiB, 182 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.simio.com/ai-optimization and https://www.simio.com/data-integration-framework all use the title “AI Optimization | Simio”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://www.simio.com/ai-optimization and https://www.simio.com/data-integration-framework use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

6 checks passed

  • About 3,082 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 3,082 words of visible text.
