Speed

7 to fix43
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    27.6 s · 9.7 MB

    58 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (9.7 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    8.0 s · 5.3 MB

    14 images could be 5.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 8.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    800 ms · 120 KiB

    About 120 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    800 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 800 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    320 ms · 64 KiB

    64 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    160 ms · 47 KiB

    About 47 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 160 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    160 ms · 8 KiB

    8 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 60 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Fonts), adding 74 KiB and 1 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 798 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix0
  • 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 LCP: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    Real visitors wait 4.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.49

    0.49

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.49 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 47.3 s

    47.3 s

    Your largest element takes 47.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 48.8 s

    48.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 48.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.455

    0.455

    The layout shifts by 0.455 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 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.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 2 images without width and height

    2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 3.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Tap response (INP) got 19% faster for real visitors

    -19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 95 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 20 ms

    20 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 20 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • Page weight: 9.8 MB in 65 requests

    9.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 9.8 MB in 65 requests on a phone: images 9.0 MB (19), scripts 329 KiB (21) and fonts 292 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 6 images over 500 KB

    6 images weigh 3.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 6 images far larger than shown

    2.0 MB

    6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example industrial_commercial.jpg at 1,500 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 2.0 MB.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (4.0 MB) 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.

  • 6 images below the first screen load straight away

    6 images further down the page (3.9 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.77 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.77 g of CO₂e: 332.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8493
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 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.

  • 34 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 27 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 31 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 37 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 31 passed and 6 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

8 to fixGoogle 9154
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is short (10 characters)

    Your title is only 10 characters: “SMI - Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://smi.com.sa/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at smi.com.sa/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 123 internal links, 28 external

    The homepage links to 123 pages on smi.com.sa and 28 external pages.

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://smi.com.sa/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

    There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (511 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 7 pages share 2 titles

    / and https://smi.com.sa/usa all use the title “SMI - Home”, and 1 other title repeat too. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 15 pages without a meta description

    https://smi.com.sa/usa, https://smi.com.sa/introduction, https://smi.com.sa/ceo-message, https://smi.com.sa/certificate-iso-9001, https://smi.com.sa/certificate-iso-14001 and https://smi.com.sa/certificate-iso-45001 and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://smi.com.sa/usa has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://smi.com.sa/design-research-development took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 58 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 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.

  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 10087
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 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 (Not Found)”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No analytics detected

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

  • Only about 173 words

    The homepage has only about 173 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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 risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

4 checks passed
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Contact Page” and “Join Us”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 12 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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