Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.8 s · 1.3 MB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.3 MB).
Improve image delivery
4.0 s · 1.1 MB9 images could be 1.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.0 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.
Mobile performance score: 76
76/100Your mobile performance score is 76 (desktop: 89). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 36 KiBAbout 36 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.
Minify JavaScript
14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.

Main-thread work: 0.1 s
A phone's processor spends 0.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 7 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.9 s
5.9 sYour largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “range”.
Time to Interactive: 5.9 s
5.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 5.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.0 s
4.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
8 images without width and height
8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
3 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s
1.7 sThe first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
banner.png weighs 676 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
7 images in older formats
7 images (1.1 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.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (427 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.36 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.36 g of CO₂e: 42.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 19 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 19 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (10), stylesheets 40 KiB (3) and scripts 37 KiB (5). That is a lean page.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Links look like plain text
4 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 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.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
27 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 34 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 27 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (67 characters)
Your title is 67 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Stark Industries - High Pressure and SCUBA Compressor Manufacturing”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“STARK INDUSTRIES” and “STARK MANUFACTURING”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
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 favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
2 links with vague text
2 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 incomplete here.
17 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 17 pages on starkindustries.com and 4 external pages.
3 checks passed
Meta description: 131 characters
Your meta description is 131 characters: “Seismic compressor technology or high pressure breathing air compressor applications and air purification for SCUBA and…”.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at http://cdn.attracta.com/sitemap/390235.xml.gz.
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 https://starkindustries.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.
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 (365 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://starkindustries.com/contact.php, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
10 pages share a title
/, https://starkindustries.com/about.php, https://starkindustries.com/compressor.php, https://starkindustries.com/service.php, https://starkindustries.com/purification.php and https://starkindustries.com/support.php and 4 others all use the title “Stark Industries - High Pressure and SCUBA Compressor Manufacturing”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
9 pages share a meta description
https://starkindustries.com/about.php, https://starkindustries.com/compressor.php, https://starkindustries.com/service.php, https://starkindustries.com/purification.php, https://starkindustries.com/support.php and https://starkindustries.com/storage.php and 3 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
4 pages without an H1
https://starkindustries.com/about.php, https://starkindustries.com/compressor.php, https://starkindustries.com/storage.php and https://starkindustries.com/maintain.php have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
3 pages with very little text
https://starkindustries.com/about.php, https://starkindustries.com/storage.php and https://starkindustries.com/customer.php have 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.

Best practices

2 low-resolution images

Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Mixed content”).
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
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.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 365 words of copy
The homepage carries about 365 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “CONTACT US”.
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “CONTACT US”.
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 starkindustries.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
