Speed

14 to fix40
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.8 s · 1.0 MB

    About 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.5 s · 544 KiB

    16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (544 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

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

  • Improve image delivery

    1.1 s · 193 KiB

    3 images could be 193 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 40

    40/100

    Your mobile performance score is 40. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (hsappstatic.net, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 159 KiB

    About 159 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 461 ms

    461 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 461 ms of main-thread work and 717 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 444 ms

    444 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 444 ms of main-thread work and 499 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.

  • Main-thread work: 3.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 316 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Hubspot adds 200 ms

    200 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 200 ms of main-thread work and 345 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.

  • 1,533 HTML elements

    The page has 1,533 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Google CDN adds 114 ms

    114 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 114 ms of main-thread work and 352 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.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix45
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 19.0 s

    19.0 s

    Your largest element takes 19.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Stratodesk | Now Part of IGEL”.

  • Speed Index: 14.5 s

    14.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 14.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 22.1 s

    22.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 22.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 821 ms

    821 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 821 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 4.0 MB in 156 requests

    4.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 156 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (55), images 961 KiB (47) and fonts 293 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    97 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example desktop-notouch-os-module.webp at 2,560 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 97 KiB.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (228 KiB) 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 (210 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.14 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.14 g of CO₂e: 136.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 7891
  • 8 buttons without a name

    8 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 9 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • 4 images without alt text

    4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 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

1 to fixGoogle 8598
  • 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.

  • 115 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 115 pages on stratodesk.com and 16 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 152 characters

    Your meta description is 152 characters: “Stratodesk is the leading innovator of an ultra-secure, managed endpoint OS designed for VDI/DAAS, SaaS, Secure Browsin…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Stratodesk is Now Part of IGEL— See What’s Next!”.

  • Title: 59 characters

    Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Stratodesk NoTouch OS - Secure Linux Endpoint for VDI, DaaS”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://stratodesk.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Corporation, 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.stratodesk.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,156 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (23 KiB, 245 links, though it should open with a “# Title” line), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 2 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /products, whose canonical is /products/notouch. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    /products/notouch/notouch-os, /products/notouch/notouch-center and /solutions/vmware-horizon took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 71 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7791
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

4 to fix71
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://stratodesk.com does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • 2 broken external links

    2 links to other sites are dead, for example https://www.linkedin.com/in/haim-inger-473ab134/ (999).

  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://stratodesk.com/events.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

3 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (stratodesk.com).

  • Valid certificate (34 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for stratodesk.com and is valid for another 34 days.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

1 to fix
  • Domain expires in 85 days

    stratodesk.com is registered until Feb 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

  • No CAA record

    stratodesk.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    stratodesk.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

1 checks passed
  • Domain is 16 years old

    16 years

    stratodesk.com was registered in Feb 2010 through united-domains GmbH. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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 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 1,488 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,488 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Contact Support”, “Contact Us” and “Free Trial”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 90 testimonial or review blocks and a star rating.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight.

Email authentication

1 to fix75
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be stratodesk.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • Email authentication score: 75/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

2 checks passed
  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:3273902.spf01.hubspotemail.net include:hubspotemail.net…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “k1” and “hs1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot and 3 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 23 cookies set on arrival

    23

    Opening the homepage sets 23 cookies, 13 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 40 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 40 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

    A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.
