Speed

10 to fix32
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    42 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.4 s · 468 KiB

    3 images could be 468 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 32

    32/100

    Your mobile performance score is 32. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    860 ms · 499 KiB

    About 499 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 860 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Usercentrics CMP and others), adding 1.2 MB and 991 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 506 ms

    506 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 506 ms of main-thread work and 536 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 371 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (371 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    410 ms · 75 KiB

    About 75 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 410 ms faster on a phone.

  • 2,509 HTML elements

    The page has 2,509 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 12 long tasks on the main thread

    12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 203 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    45 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 45 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix50
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.5 s

    18.5 s

    Your largest element takes 18.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The clouds have revolutionized the traditional go-to-market…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 22.7 s

    22.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 22.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.3 s

    8.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 748 ms

    748 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 748 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.264

    0.264

    The layout shifts by 0.264 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.6 s

    3.6 s

    Real visitors wait 3.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.6 s to 3.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

1 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.04

    0.04

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.04 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

Images and page weight

3 to fix45
  • Page weight: 4.3 MB in 189 requests

    4.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 189 requests on a phone: images 1.6 MB (24), scripts 1.5 MB (73) and fonts 702 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    img_d8-768x973.png weighs 776 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (776 KiB) is 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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.21 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.21 g of CO₂e: 144.8 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

4 to fixGoogle 9295
  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 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 (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails 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 (h2 → h5, h2 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 28 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 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9289
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Cloud GTM Success Starts Here” and “HOW TACKLE HELPS”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization and Product) but with 1 problem, for example “Product: no offers (price) block”.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 238 internal links, 30 external

    The homepage links to 238 pages on tackle.io and 30 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 160 characters

    Your meta description is 160 characters: “Tackle helps you identify the right buyers, co-sell with your Cloud Partners, and transact through the Marketplaces wit…”.

  • Title: 47 characters

    Your title is a healthy 47 characters: “Tackle: Your Platform for Cloud GTM | Tackle.io”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://tackle.io/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://tackle.io/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://tackle.io/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 (1,450 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

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 https://tackle.io/resources/blogs, whose canonical is https://tackle.io/resources-category/blogs. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://tackle.io/optimize-cloud-marketplace-operations took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 55 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9271
  • 1 broken image

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix86
  • 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.

  • Only about 212 words

    The homepage has only about 212 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “GET A DEMO” and “Schedule a Demo”.

  • 13 calls to action

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 11 customer or partner logos and a star rating.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Usercentrics) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 30 cookies set on arrival

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Usercentrics

    A consent management tool (Usercentrics) loads with the page.

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 tackle.io, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
