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
Use efficient cache lifetimes
42.9 s · 7.9 MB94 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (7.9 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
20.8 s · 5.1 MBAbout 5.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 20.8 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
10.8 s · 1.3 MBAbout 1.3 MB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 10.8 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
8.6 s14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 8.6 s.
Improve image delivery
2.2 s · 523 KiB8 images could be 523 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.2 s faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
1.8 s · 208 KiB208 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
1.2 s · 203 KiB203 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Mobile performance score: 39
39/100Your mobile performance score is 39. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.3 s
A phone's processor spends 6.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 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 Tag Manager, Google CDN and Facebook and others), adding 3.3 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 759 ms
759 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 759 ms of main-thread work and 1.5 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 779 ms
779 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 779 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.
Legacy JavaScript
400 ms · 12 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
Facebook adds 364 ms
364 msFacebook costs a phone 364 ms of main-thread work and 453 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 314 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Document request latency
72 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
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.

Server response: 68 ms
68 msYour server sent the HTML in 68 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.
First Contentful Paint: 32.5 s
32.5 sThe first text or image appears after 32.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 54.0 s
54.0 sYour largest element takes 54.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “moms celebrating the launch of MomCo with confetti”.
Speed Index: 32.5 s
32.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 32.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 67.2 s
67.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 67.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 645 ms
645 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 645 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user TTFB: 885 ms
885 msReal visitors wait 885 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
9 images without width and height
9 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 11% slower for real visitors
+11%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 112 ms to 126 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
6 checks passed
Real-user LCP: 2.0 s

Real-user INP: 134 ms
134 msReal visitors wait 134 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user CLS: 0.01
0.01For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user FCP: 1.8 s
1.8 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest content (LCP) got 17% faster for real visitors
-17%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 12.2 MB in 182 requests
12.2 MBYour homepage downloads 12.2 MB in 182 requests on a phone: scripts 7.0 MB (77), stylesheets 2.0 MB (31) and images 1.7 MB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 3.5 g of CO₂ per visit
3.47 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.47 g of CO₂e: 416.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
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.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
5 form fields without a label
5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 17 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 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
Title is short (16 characters)
Your title is only 16 characters: “Home | The MomCo”. 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 canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
Meta description is long (197 characters)
Your meta description is 197 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
36 internal links, 14 external
The homepage links to 36 pages on themom.co and 14 external pages.
4 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Find your people,”.
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://www.themom.co/sitemaps.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.
3 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 (757 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.themom.co/llms.txt (2 KiB, 5 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.themom.co/home and https://www.themom.co/index all use the title “Home | The MomCo”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
9 pages share a meta description
https://www.themom.co/my-profile, https://www.themom.co/donate, https://www.themom.co/charter-my-group, https://www.themom.co/contact, https://www.themom.co/podcast-network and https://www.themom.co/advertise and 3 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
1 page without an H1
https://www.themom.co/my-profile has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
4 pages with very little text
https://www.themom.co/my-profile, https://www.themom.co/find-a-meetup, https://www.themom.co/charter-my-group and https://www.themom.co/contact 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.
3 pages slow to respond
https://www.themom.co/articles, https://www.themom.co/index and https://www.themom.co/start-a-meetup took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 21 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Canonical URLs point to themselves
No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.
Every page has a meta description
All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.
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
Deprecated browser APIs
The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Error: <svg> attribute height: Expected length, "auto".”.
6 distorted images
6 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
1 checks passed
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.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 993 words of copy
The homepage carries about 993 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “START A GROUP”.
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Start a Group”, “Start One Today” and “Contact”.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 16 testimonial or review blocks and 6 customer or partner logos.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel 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.
11 cookies set on arrival
11Opening the homepage sets 11 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.
26 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 26 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 themom.co, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
