Speed

1 to fix96
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 155 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (155 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 21 KiB

    About 21 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    100 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 100 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.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 96

    96/100

    Your mobile performance score is 96. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 247 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

1 to fix100
  • Speed Index: 4.9 s

    4.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

5 checks passed
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.7 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “We build powerful web products for everyday tasks — documen…”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The page is fully interactive after 1.7 s.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.05 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.05 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.05 g of CO₂e: 5.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 168 KiB in 9 requests

    168 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 168 KiB in 9 requests on a phone: scripts 149 KiB (7), HTML 13 KiB (1) and stylesheets 6 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 8994
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 32 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 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), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10094
  • Meta description is long (181 characters)

    Your meta description is 181 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 8 internal links, 34 external

    The homepage links to 8 pages on smallcode.in and 34 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Software forPDF Tools”.

  • Title: 39 characters

    Your title is a healthy 39 characters: “Smallcode — Software Built for Everyone”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://smallcode.in/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://smallcode.in/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://smallcode.in/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 (630 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 1 page with very little text

    https://smallcode.in/terms has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 2 internal pages checked

    We fetched 2 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 2 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 2 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 2 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • 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

5 to fix20
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

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

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 624 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 624 words of visible text.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 smallcode.in, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
