Speed

10 to fix47
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3.5 s · 892 KiB

    37 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (892 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    3.7 s

    17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.7 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.6 s · 619 KiB

    About 619 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.0 s · 743 KiB

    12 images could be 743 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 47

    47/100

    Your mobile performance score is 47. 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 (onlineaccess1.com, Google Tag Manager and Optanon and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.

  • onlineaccess1.com adds 649 ms

    649 ms

    onlineaccess1.com costs a phone 649 ms of main-thread work and 185 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 120 KiB

    About 120 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 324 ms

    324 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 324 ms of main-thread work and 525 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: 3.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 15 long tasks on the main thread

    15 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 116 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Document request latency

    112 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Minify CSS

    27 KiB

    27 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    12 KiB

    12 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    9 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 9 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: 25 ms

    25 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 25 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix67
  • 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: 8.0 s

    8.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 8.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.9 s

    18.9 s

    Your largest element takes 18.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 19.1 s

    19.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 19.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.5 s

    9.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user INP: 211 ms

    211 ms

    Real visitors wait 211 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 338 ms

    338 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 338 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 217 ms to 211 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.9 s to 2.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.06

    0.06

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.06 (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: 392 ms

    392 ms

    Real visitors wait 392 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.077

    0.077

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.077, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix75
  • Page weight: 3.7 MB in 104 requests

    3.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 104 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (25), images 1.4 MB (30) and fonts 218 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 12 images in older formats

    12 images (1.0 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (60 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.04 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.04 g of CO₂e: 124.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 9592
  • ARIA attributes must conform to valid names (1 element)

    ARIA attributes must conform to valid names: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (9 elements)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (9 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (2 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 26 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 9279
  • Title is long (75 characters)

    Your title is 75 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Tri Counties Bank | California's Local Bank for Personal & Business Banking”.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Tri Counties Bank” and “California’s Local Bank”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Corporation and Organization) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: missing name”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 3 links with vague text

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

  • 183 internal links, 28 external

    The homepage links to 183 pages on tcbk.com and 28 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “Tri Counties Bank is California's Local Bank — offering personal, business, commercial and private banking with persona…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.tcbk.com/.

  • 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.tcbk.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.tcbk.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 (1,030 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 82 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    10 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 8185
  • 10 small tap targets

    10 of 37 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 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.

  • Only about 219 words

    The homepage has only about 219 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

5 checks passed
  • 22 calls to action

    The homepage has 22 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Order Checks” and “Start Now ›”.

  • 5 short forms

    5 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo and 2 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) 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 tcbk.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
