Speed

5 to fix67
  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.4 s · 313 KiB

    About 313 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.5 s

    15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 67

    67/100

    Your mobile performance score is 67 (desktop: 92). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    600 ms · 221 KiB

    201 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (221 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 135 KiB

    5 images could be 135 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 31 KiB

    About 31 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 11 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 11 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    150 ms · 7 KiB

    7 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. 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 105 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 92 but mobile only 67. 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 435 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 9.2 s

    9.2 s

    Real visitors wait 9.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 7.3 s

    7.3 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 7.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 4.1 s

    4.1 s

    Real visitors wait 4.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.8 s

    8.8 s

    Your largest element takes 8.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Therapist and client seated on a couch in a one-on-one coun…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.9 s

    8.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 26 images without width and height

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

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 109 ms

    109 ms

    Real visitors wait 109 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Tap response (INP) got 16% faster for real visitors

    -16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 126 ms to 104 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.027

    0.027

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.027, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 28 ms

    28 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 28 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix67
  • Page weight: 2.7 MB in 229 requests

    2.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 229 requests on a phone: images 1.0 MB (69), other files 627 KiB (27) and scripts 505 KiB (118). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.77 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.77 g of CO₂e: 92.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 8790
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Elements with an ARIA [role] that require children to contain a specific [role] are missing some or all of those required children.

    Elements with an ARIA [role] that require children to contain a specific [role] are missing some or all of those required children. (4 elements).

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 5 tap targets too small

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

1 checks passed
  • 27 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 29 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 27 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 9275
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • 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.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.therapynotes.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 10 links with vague text

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

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • Open Graph partly set

    Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

3 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “TherapyNotes® is practice management software for behavioral health, helping you securely manage records, book appointm…”.

  • Title: 41 characters

    Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Behavioral Health EHR/EMR | TherapyNotes®”.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.therapynotes.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.

1 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.

Best practices

Google 100100
2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

6 to fix25
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • Only about 6 words

    The homepage has only about 6 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

Privacy and tracking

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 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.

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