Speed

6 to fix60
  • Render-blocking requests

    3.2 s

    12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.2 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 170 KiB

    About 170 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    650 ms · 2.2 MB

    10 images could be 2.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 60

    60/100

    Your mobile performance score is 60 (desktop: 73). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 108 KiB

    About 108 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    310 ms · 64 KiB

    64 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts and Google Analytics), adding 266 KiB and 113 ms of main-thread time.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 77 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 360 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 33.6 s

    33.6 s

    Your largest element takes 33.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Innovative and sustainable solutions delivered by a passion…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 36.1 s

    36.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 36.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 4.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.8 s

    6.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 7 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 79 ms to 88 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 15% slower for real visitors

    +15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.1 s to 1.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

8 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    0.00

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

  • Real-user FCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 723 ms

    723 ms

    Real visitors wait 723 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

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

Images and page weight

5 to fix18
  • 9 images over 500 KB

    9 images weigh 28.3 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    20.5 MB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 16640860_N57.jpg at 10,756 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 20.5 MB.

  • Page weight: 10.9 MB in 68 requests

    10.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.9 MB in 68 requests on a phone: images 10.1 MB (32), scripts 449 KiB (17) and fonts 193 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 20 images in older formats

    20 images (30.4 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.

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (22.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.09 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.09 g of CO₂e: 371.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8589
  • 5 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (41 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 41 elements on the page fail 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.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 49 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 7 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9290
  • Title is short (15 characters)

    Your title is only 15 characters: “SSR - We Own It”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 28 links with vague text

    28 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 87 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 87 pages on ssr-inc.com and 7 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 140 characters

    Your meta description is 140 characters: “SSR specializes in design, consulting, and planning services that address complex technical problems with innovative, s…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Innovative and sustainable solutions delivered by a passionate, 100% colleague-owned team.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.ssr-inc.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and 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://www.ssr-inc.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.ssr-inc.com/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 sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,862 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    https://www.ssr-inc.com/what-we-do, https://www.ssr-inc.com/what-we-do/design, https://www.ssr-inc.com/what-we-do/consulting, https://www.ssr-inc.com/what-we-do/planning, https://www.ssr-inc.com/who-we-serve and https://www.ssr-inc.com/who-we-serve/civic-community and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.ssr-inc.com/who-we-serve has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 37 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 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.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 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”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    22 of 24 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 14 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 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 691 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 691 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 18 calls to action

    The homepage has 18 calls to action, for example “Learn more here”, “Contact Us” and “Learn More”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (6 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (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.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 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 ssr-inc.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
