techskills.com website review

3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

Your mobile performance score is 79. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 134 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.

6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 668 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 380 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

7 images could be 148 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cloudflare and Google/Doubleclick Ads and others), adding 220 KiB and 41 ms of main-thread time.

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

8 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

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.

Real visitors see the first content after 3.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

Real visitors wait 2.4 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

The page becomes fully interactive after 91.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors wait 3.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 386 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

15 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Your homepage downloads 30.4 MB in 99 requests on a phone: images 28.9 MB (60), scripts 893 KiB (16) and fonts 425 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

7 images weigh 27.7 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

7 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example aplus-1-new.svg at 1,400 px wide, shown at 275 px. Resized copies would save about 17.5 MB.

24 images further down the page (28.6 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

2 images (104 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 8.61 g of CO₂e: 1033.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

14 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

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

Your title is 81 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Future-Proofing Your Workforce | TechSkills IT Skilling, Training & Certification”.

Your meta description is 245 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

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

Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 200 pages on techskills.com and 2 external pages.

There is no https://techskills.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.

https://techskills.com/en/xlfi, https://techskills.com/en/smb-programs, https://techskills.com/en/cool-program, https://techskills.com/en/partnerships, https://techskills.com/en/learning-services and https://techskills.com/en/government-skilling and 2 others are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

https://techskills.com/en and / all use the title “Future-Proofing Your Workforce | TechSkills IT Skilling, Training & C…”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

/, https://techskills.com/en/xlfi, https://techskills.com/en/smb-programs, https://techskills.com/en/cool-program, https://techskills.com/en/partnerships and https://techskills.com/en/learning-services and 1 other use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /, whose canonical is https://techskills.com/en. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 89 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.6.3/css/all.css' from origin 'https://techskills.c…”.

2 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

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.

Social proof on the homepage: 3 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,741 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.

Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 9 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
