Speed
Improve image delivery
2.5 s · 533 KiB4 images could be 533 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 331 KiBAbout 331 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 342 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (342 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 53
53/100Your mobile performance score is 53 (desktop: 75). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Cookiebot and others), adding 1.0 MB and 894 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
950 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 438 ms
438 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 438 ms of main-thread work and 531 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.
Facebook adds 262 ms
262 msFacebook costs a phone 262 ms of main-thread work and 220 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 213 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
24 KiBAbout 24 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
12 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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: 1.9 s
A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.2 s
13.2 sYour largest element takes 13.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “ABOUT US We are a full-service marketing agency that enable…”.
Time to Interactive: 14.5 s
14.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.7 s
3.7 sThe first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
53 images without width and height
53 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Total Blocking Time: 459 ms
459 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 459 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 5.0 s
5.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
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.
1 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.2 MB in 74 requests
10.2 MBYour homepage downloads 10.2 MB in 74 requests on a phone: media 8.3 MB (1), scripts 1.0 MB (18) and images 790 KiB (28). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (661 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images in older formats
2 images (506 KiB) 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.
3 images far larger than shown
221 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example alberta-beef-producers-featured-image.jpg at 1,450 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 221 KiB.
About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.88 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.88 g of CO₂e: 345.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
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.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 60 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 1 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (0 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
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 (288 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
6 pages without a meta description
/contact, /our-work/pioneer-100, /blog/the-multiplication-effect-when-marketing-math-becomes-magic, /blog/from-campaigns-to-capital-rethinking-how-we-invest-our-marketing-dollars, /subscribe-to-our-newsletter and /privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages with very little text
/contact and /subscribe-to-our-newsletter 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.

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 48 customer or partner logos. 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 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 350 words of copy
The homepage carries about 350 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
4 calls to action

15 cookies set on arrival
