Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.6 s · 9.4 MB76 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (9.4 MB).
Main-thread work: 7.1 s
A phone's processor spends 7.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
5.5 MB35 images could be 5.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts and Amazon Web Services and others), adding 8.9 MB and 491 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 262 KiBAbout 262 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Amazon Web Services adds 0 ms
0 msAmazon Web Services costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 8.7 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.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 491 ms
491 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 491 ms of main-thread work and 178 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.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 360 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 59 KiBAbout 59 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.
Document request latency
112 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
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.

First Contentful Paint: 5.1 s
5.1 sThe first text or image appears after 5.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.1 s
5.1 sYour largest element takes 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “SpotHopper powers over 20,000 restaurants with the #1 AI ma…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.3 s).
Total Blocking Time: 467 ms
467 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 467 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 9.8 MB in 81 requests
9.8 MBYour homepage downloads 9.8 MB in 81 requests on a phone: images 8.7 MB (61), scripts 837 KiB (15) and HTML 168 KiB (1). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 2.1 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
8 images far larger than shown
2.3 MB8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example kan_cetin_1.jpg at 2,354 px wide, shown at 316 px. Resized copies would save about 2.3 MB.
40 images in older formats
40 images (8.4 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.
26 images below the first screen load straight away
26 images further down the page (5.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.8 g of CO₂ per visit
2.78 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.78 g of CO₂e: 333.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
6 buttons without a name
6 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
35 text elements with low contrast
35 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 (2 elements)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
24 images without alt text
24 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (46 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 46 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one main landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
39 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 9 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
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.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
30 internal links, 16 external
The homepage links to 30 pages on spothopperapp.com and 16 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 155 characters
Your meta description is 155 characters: “SpotHopper powers over 20,000 restaurants with 99% retention—increasing revenue through higher Google rankings, custom …”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Share your culinary craft with more new customers”.
Title: 54 characters
Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “SpotHopper - The #1 Marketing Platform for Restaurants”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.spothopperapp.com/.
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://www.spothopperapp.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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 /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 (1,038 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
/contact-us/partner-up declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and /contact-us/partner-up all use the title “SpotHopper - The #1 Marketing Platform for Restaurants”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
2 pages without a meta description
/legal/terms-of-service and /legal/privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages without an H1
/careers and /contact-us have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/contact-us 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.
10 internal pages checked
We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

Content and conversion
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 918 words of copy
The homepage carries about 918 words of visible text.
