One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.2 s · 547 KiBAbout 547 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.2 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.1 s11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.1 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Hubspot and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 52
52/100Your mobile performance score is 52 (desktop: 86). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 110 KiB21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (110 KiB).
Google CDN adds 485 ms
485 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 485 ms of main-thread work and 736 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.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 53 KiBAbout 53 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 422 ms
422 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 422 ms of main-thread work and 503 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.
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
14 long tasks on the main thread
14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 182 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 86 but mobile only 52. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 11.0 s
11.0 sYour largest element takes 11.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience, serve p…”.
Time to Interactive: 12.6 s
12.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.5 s
6.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest content (LCP) got 32% slower for real visitors
+32%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 2.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 503 ms
503 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 503 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s
2.7 sThe first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001
0.001The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 11.2 MB in 57 requests
11.2 MBYour homepage downloads 11.2 MB in 57 requests on a phone: media 9.3 MB (1), scripts 1.3 MB (25) and other files 366 KiB (13). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit
3.18 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.18 g of CO₂e: 382.0 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
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 links without text
2 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.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 35 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 1 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
72 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 72 pages on themrn.io and 6 external pages.
7 checks passed

Structured data in place

AI search readiness
4 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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (587 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://themrn.io/llms.txt (5 KiB, 37 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
4 pages without a meta description
https://themrn.io/solutions, https://themrn.io/solutions/mrn-technologies, https://themrn.io/solutions/integrated-trial-services and https://themrn.io/a-propos-de-mrn 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://themrn.io/solutions/home-trial-support, whose canonical is https://themrn.io/solutions/home-trial-support-hts-mrn. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page with very little text
https://themrn.io/mrn-%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A4%E3%81%84%E3%81%A6 has 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.
1 page slow to respond
https://themrn.io/solutions/home-trial-support took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.
