thechargepoint.com website review

19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

Your mobile performance score is 59 (desktop: 81). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (235 KiB).

About 72 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and jQuery CDN and others), adding 334 KiB and 574 ms of main-thread time.

The page has 2,470 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

About 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 180 ms faster on a phone.

2 images could be 30 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 171 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).

Polyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

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

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

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.

Your largest element takes 7.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Together we reach beyond ChargePoint Technology is the expe…”. Most of its time is resource load delay (3.7 s).

Visually, the page fills in at 7.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 8.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Real visitors wait 1.0 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

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

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.23 g of CO₂e: 28.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 23 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h2 → h6 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

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

The homepage links to 122 pages on thechargepoint.com and 4 external pages.

There is no https://www.thechargepoint.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://www.thechargepoint.com/product-solution/fluid-management, https://www.thechargepoint.com/product-solution/powder-handling, https://www.thechargepoint.com/products/terracon-bagtray-system, https://www.thechargepoint.com/products/terracon-bag-tote and https://www.thechargepoint.com/products/terracon-terrapure have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

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

https://www.thechargepoint.com/product-solution/fluid-management and https://www.thechargepoint.com/product-solution/powder-handling have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

https://www.thechargepoint.com/products/terracon-bagtray-system took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 40 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

8 of 34 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.7.2/css/all.css' from origin 'https://www.thecharg…”.

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 testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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.

A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

Your longest form asks for 13 fields (8 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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 346 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity (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 17 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
