Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 2.0 MBAbout 2.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 33
33/100Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.3 s
A phone's processor spends 7.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Hubspot and others), adding 3.4 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
950 ms · 1.1 MB26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).
Improve image delivery
600 ms · 613 KiB4 images could be 613 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Google CDN adds 675 ms
675 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 675 ms of main-thread work and 1.8 MB 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 498 ms
498 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 498 ms of main-thread work and 701 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
450 ms · 109 KiBAbout 109 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Hubspot adds 275 ms
275 msHubspot costs a phone 275 ms of main-thread work and 399 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.
2,111 HTML elements
The page has 2,111 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
hs-sites-eu1.com adds 79 ms
79 mshs-sites-eu1.com costs a phone 79 ms of main-thread work and 294 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 203 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
67 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 67 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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: 21 ms
21 msYour server sent the HTML in 21 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.
Time to Interactive: 36.7 s
36.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 36.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 6.0 s
6.0 sYour largest element takes 6.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “import and export compliance”.
Total Blocking Time: 1.2 s
1.2 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.2 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 6.6 s
6.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.304
0.304The layout shifts by 0.304 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
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.
Real-user INP: 341 ms
341 msReal visitors wait 341 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 43% slower for real visitors
+43%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 146 ms to 204 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Real-user FCP: 2.6 s
2.6 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.6 s
1.6 sReal visitors wait 1.6 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
3 checks passed
Real-user CLS: 0.00
0.00For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest content (LCP) got 25% faster for real visitors
-25%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.2 s to 3.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s
1.5 sThe first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.9 MB in 166 requests
6.9 MBYour homepage downloads 6.9 MB in 166 requests on a phone: scripts 4.4 MB (72), images 871 KiB (24) and other files 751 KiB (43). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
544 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example liability-cover-min.webp at 2,000 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 544 KiB.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
liability-cover-min.webp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit
1.95 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.95 g of CO₂e: 233.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h6, h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 121 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 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
5 links crawlers can't follow
5 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
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.
327 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 327 pages on tecex.com and 5 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 126 characters
Your meta description is 126 characters: “TecEx is the leader in Importer of Record solutions, global trade compliance, EOR, and DDP services for the tech supply…”.
One H1 headline

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://tecex.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
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://tecex.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 (1,732 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
3 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 3 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://tecex.com/solutions/liability-cover, whose canonical is https://tecex.com/solutions/cargo-liability-cover. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 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 900 words of copy
The homepage carries about 900 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 Us” and “Get In Touch”.
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Get In Touch” and “Subscribe Now”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
19 cookies set on arrival
19Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
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.
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.
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 tecex.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
