Speed

6 to fix56
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    7.3 s · 2.6 MB

    52 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.6 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    4.2 s · 1,016 KiB

    11 images could be 1,016 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    3.5 s

    14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.5 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.9 s · 350 KiB

    About 350 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 56

    56/100

    Your mobile performance score is 56 (desktop: 69). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Font display

    900 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 900 ms).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 90 KiB

    About 90 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 83 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Cloudflare CDN and Google Fonts), adding 81 KiB and 6 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 154 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 168 ms

    168 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 168 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix67
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 10.1 s

    10.1 s

    Your largest element takes 10.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Who We Are”.

  • Speed Index: 10.8 s

    10.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 10.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 10.2 s

    10.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 10.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 33 ms

    33 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 33 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix60
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    4iuthg4-787x1024-1-768x999-1.png weighs 852 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • Page weight: 2.7 MB in 58 requests

    2.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 58 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (33), stylesheets 405 KiB (13) and scripts 268 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (881 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.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (53 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.76 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.76 g of CO₂e: 91.1 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

14 to fixGoogle 6879
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (1 element)

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

  • Hidden but focusable

    9 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 5 text elements with low contrast

    5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • ARIA input fields must have an accessible name (3 elements)

    ARIA input fields must have an accessible name: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (3 elements)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name (2 elements)

    ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (21 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 21 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.

  • 17 links without text

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

  • Headings should not be empty (5 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 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: 41 passed and 14 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8576
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (19 characters)

    Your title is only 19 characters: “Tharwa Petroleum Co”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 64 internal links, 1 external

    The homepage links to 64 pages on tharwa.com.eg and 1 external page.

4 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Tharwa Petroleum Co”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/.

  • 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.tharwa.com.eg/wp-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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://www.tharwa.com.eg/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 (685 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix83
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/about-us and https://www.tharwa.com.eg/about-us all use the title “About us – Tharwa Petroleum Co”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 15 pages without a meta description

    https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/info, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/about-us, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/our-vision, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/our-shared-holders, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/chairmans and https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/board-members and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

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

  • 4 pages with very little text

    https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/about-us, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/insights, https://www.tharwa.com.eg/en/annual-reports and https://www.tharwa.com.eg/about-us have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 29 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Element not found”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    20 of 22 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix58
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 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 432 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 432 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact us”.

  • 3 short forms

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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