thesaasbootstrapper.co website review

About 755 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.

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

8 third-party services load with your homepage (substackcdn.com, Google Tag Manager and datadoghq-browser-agent.com and others), adding 3.0 MB and 941 ms of main-thread time.

Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

substackcdn.com costs a phone 628 ms of main-thread work and 2.6 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.

About 81 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.

9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 359 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

A phone's processor spends 3.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 249 ms of main-thread work and 331 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.

4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (46 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 29 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

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

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.

Your largest element takes 12.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 18.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 660 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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.

Your homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 282 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (218), stylesheets 271 KiB (37) and images 225 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.87 g of CO₂e: 104.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

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

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

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.

There is no https://thesaasbootstrapper.co/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.

robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “When fetching the accounts endpoint, a 401 HTTP response code was received.”.

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

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

The homepage has only about 41 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (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 16 cookies, 5 of them by other companies (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 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
