Speed
Improve image delivery
6.6 s · 2.0 MB17 images could be 2.0 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.6 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 707 KiB37 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (707 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
2.2 s17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.2 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 549 KiBAbout 549 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 38
38/100Your mobile performance score is 38. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.6 s
A phone's processor spends 4.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 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, Audience 360 and transcend-cdn.com and others), adding 1.4 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 573 ms
573 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 573 ms of main-thread work and 532 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.
Audience 360 adds 534 ms
534 msAudience 360 costs a phone 534 ms of main-thread work and 62 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
300 ms · 59 KiBAbout 59 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Google/Doubleclick Ads adds 185 ms
185 msGoogle/Doubleclick Ads costs a phone 185 ms of main-thread work and 314 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.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 221 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 59 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 59 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 12 KiB12 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 15.2 s
15.2 sYour largest element takes 15.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 23.2 s
23.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 23.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.1 s

Total Blocking Time: 1.1 s
1.1 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s
3.3 sThe first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.0 s

Real-user TTFB: 1.0 s
1.0 sReal visitors wait 1.0 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
18 images without width and height
18 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+9%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 120 ms to 125 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.4 MB in 173 requests
4.4 MBYour homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 173 requests on a phone: images 2.3 MB (38), scripts 1.8 MB (54) and other files 149 KiB (61). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
1200x480_ThinkHDI_Awards_2026.ashx weighs 620 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
13 images in older formats
13 images (2.3 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
6 images below the first screen load straight away
6 images further down the page (687 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
5 images far larger than shown
243 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 1200x480_ThinkHDI_Awards_2026.ashx at 1,200 px wide, shown at 366 px. Resized copies would save about 243 KiB.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.25 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.25 g of CO₂e: 149.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Invalid ARIA attributes
1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
24 text elements with low contrast
24 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
4 tap targets too small
4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
1 checks passed
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 9 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is long (107 characters)
Your title is 107 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “ITSM Consulting Company | IT Help Desk, Tech Support, IT Technician & Service Management …”.
5 H1 headlines
There are 5 <h1> headlines (“Your HDI Insider Deal is Here!”, “ITIL 5 Is Here: Future-Proof Your Service Desk” and “HDI Industry Forums are Back!”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (untyped) but with 1 problem, for example “ld+json block 1 is not valid JSON (Bad control character in string literal in JSON at position )”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
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.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
68 internal links, 26 external
The homepage links to 68 pages on thinkhdi.com and 26 external pages.
2 checks passed
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.thinkhdi.com/sitemap.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.
No llms.txt
There is no /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.
2 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 (1,082 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 54 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
1 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=23001113&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=b2da192d-939b-47cd-af86-059a8f010168&bo=2&sid=259ea2f0d57011f19ebf935e61f03029&vid=259ec1f0d57011f19e8125565ee774e6&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=91.
12 small tap targets
12 of 31 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
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.”).
4 JavaScript errors while loading
4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'open' of object '#<Window>'”.
1 distorted image
1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
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 phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 1,289 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,289 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “BOOK YOUR HEALTHCHECK” and “JOIN THE WAITLIST”.
13 calls to action
The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Download Training Catalog”, “Contact Us” and “JOIN THE WAITLIST”.
1 short form
A short form (3 fields at most) is right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Privacy and tracking
8 trackers load before any consent
8Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (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.
27 cookies set on arrival
27Opening the homepage sets 27 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.
53 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 53 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 thinkhdi.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
