Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
6.7 s · 2.0 MB97 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.0 MB).
Render-blocking requests
5.6 s45 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.6 s.
Improve image delivery
3.0 s · 1.4 MB3 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.9 s · 365 KiBAbout 365 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 53
53/100Your mobile performance score is 53 (desktop: 68). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 275 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Maps adds 192 ms
192 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 192 ms of main-thread work and 384 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.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Maps, cdn-cookieyes.com and Google Fonts), adding 605 KiB and 255 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 73 KiBAbout 73 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
13 KiB13 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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: 1.6 s
A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 698 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 64 ms
64 msYour server sent the HTML in 64 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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.
First Contentful Paint: 7.7 s
7.7 sThe first text or image appears after 7.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 23.2 s
23.2 sYour largest element takes 23.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “From our roots as a Montana-based tissue bank to a recogniz…”.
Time to Interactive: 23.7 s
23.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 23.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.0 s
9.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.9 s
2.9 sReal visitors wait 2.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Tap response (INP) got 23% slower for real visitors
+23%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 63 ms to 80 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Real-user FCP: 2.3 s

Real-user TTFB: 1.3 s
1.3 sReal visitors wait 1.3 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Total Blocking Time: 225 ms
225 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 225 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
7 images without width and height
7 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
3 checks passed
Real-user CLS: 0.01
0.01For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest content (LCP) got 36% faster for real visitors
-36%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.2 s to 2.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.3 MB in 124 requests
5.3 MBYour homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 124 requests on a phone: images 3.6 MB (22), scripts 928 KiB (42) and fonts 332 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
Xtant-Medical-Blue-Green-Day-Group-Photo-scaled.jpg weighs 1.3 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
3 images in older formats
3 images (1.5 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.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.50 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.50 g of CO₂e: 180.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
6 text elements with low contrast
6 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.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 20 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (20 characters)
Your title is only 20 characters: “Home – Xtant Medical”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Precision.”, “Performance.” and “Progress.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
132 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 132 pages on surgalign.com and 12 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://xtantmedical.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://xtantmedical.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://xtantmedical.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 (754 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 pages without a meta description
https://xtantmedical.com/biologics, https://xtantmedical.com/product-category/biologics/allogeneic-proteins, https://xtantmedical.com/product-category/biologics/surgical-adjunct, https://xtantmedical.com/product-category/biologics/demineralized-bone-matrix-dbm, https://xtantmedical.com/product-category/biologics/precision-milled-allografts and https://xtantmedical.com/product-category/biologics/sports-medicine-allografts and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
18 of 19 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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 379 words of copy
The homepage carries about 379 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.
15 calls to action

8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
6 other companies contacted

2 checks passed
Consent tool: CookieYes
