Render-blocking requests
3.6 s50 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.6 s.
Reduce unused CSS
1.1 s · 139 KiBAbout 139 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 35
35/100Your mobile performance score is 35. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 158 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (158 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 365 KiBAbout 365 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Intercom, Google Tag Manager and Google CDN and others), adding 510 KiB and 536 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
426 KiB3 images could be 426 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Intercom adds 300 ms
300 msIntercom costs a phone 300 ms of main-thread work and 226 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.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 322 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,068 HTML elements
The page has 2,068 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Minify JavaScript
19 KiB19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 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.

Server response: 9 ms
9 msYour server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 10.4 s
10.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 10.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 14.6 s
14.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.9 s
5.9 sYour largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The annual TECHSPO Seattle 2027 Technology Expo returns May…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.7 s).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.482
0.482The layout shifts by 0.482 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
First Contentful Paint: 4.2 s
4.2 sThe first text or image appears after 4.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 268 ms
268 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 268 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
3 images without width and height
3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.1 MB in 156 requests
3.1 MBYour homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 156 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (35), scripts 918 KiB (62) and fonts 342 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (45 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (45 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.86 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 103.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
13 text elements with low contrast
13 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
12 tap targets too small
12 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (2 elements)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
ARIA input fields must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA input fields must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
7 images without alt text
7 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (86 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 86 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 (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (2 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5, h3 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 15 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (100 characters)
Your title is 100 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “TECHSPO Seattle 2027 · Technology Expo · May 6-7, 2027 (Internet ~ Mobile ~ AdTech ~ MarT…”.
Meta description is long (320 characters)
Your meta description is 320 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, BusinessEvent , WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “ld+json block 4 is not valid JSON (Bad control character in string literal in JSON at position )”.
17 links crawlers can't follow
17 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
110 internal links, 110 external
The homepage links to 110 pages on techsposeattle.com and 110 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Choose your own experience”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://techsposeattle.com/.
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://techsposeattle.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://techsposeattle.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 (2,319 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://techsposeattle.com/networking-opportunities, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
2 pages without a meta description
https://techsposeattle.com/agenda-2027 and https://techsposeattle.com/sessions have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 internal pages checked

Tap targets are thumb-sized
10 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 1,830 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,830 words of visible text.
Urgency cues
The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).
5 checks passed

26 calls to action

2 short forms

Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 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.
22 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 22 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 techsposeattle.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
