Speed

7 to fix72
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.1 s · 1.2 MB

    56 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.2 MB).

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, JSDelivr CDN and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 9.5 MB and 342 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 72

    72/100

    Your mobile performance score is 72 (desktop: 94). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    956 KiB

    13 images could be 956 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Vimeo adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 9.2 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    550 ms

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

  • Main-thread work: 2.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 565 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 149 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    67 KiB

    About 67 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    22 KiB

    About 22 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    10 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 10 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 582 ms

    582 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 582 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix72
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    Your largest element takes 4.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Innovative aviation and high-integrity electronic solutions…”. Most of its time is element render delay (1.9 s).

  • Speed Index: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 6.0 s

    6.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 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.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.6 s to 3.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 194 ms

    194 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 194 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.086

    0.086

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.086, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix50
  • Page weight: 11.3 MB in 70 requests

    11.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.3 MB in 70 requests on a phone: media 9.2 MB (1), images 1.6 MB (30) and scripts 405 KiB (26). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (493 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.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    47 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example RNZAF_Crest.svg-282x300.png at 282 px wide, shown at 56 px. Resized copies would save about 47 KiB.

  • About 3.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.21 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.21 g of CO₂e: 385.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 8289
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 25 text elements with low contrast

    25 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Positive tabindex

    5 elements have a tabindex above 0, which scrambles the keyboard order.

  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (2 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (19 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 19 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 9 links without text

    9 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.

  • Headings should not be empty (2 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 40 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 9 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9288
  • Title is short (21 characters)

    Your title is only 21 characters: “Thomas Global Systems”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 17 links with vague text

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

  • 126 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 126 pages on thomas-global.com and 3 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 119 characters

    Your meta description is 119 characters: “Innovative aviation and high-integrity electronic solutions for commercial, defense and government customers worldwide.”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Trusted Innovation.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://thomas-global.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: WebSite.

  • 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://thomas-global.com/sitemaps.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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://thomas-global.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.

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 (1,139 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://thomas-global.com/newsroom, https://thomas-global.com/events and https://thomas-global.com/products 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://thomas-global.com/newsroom, whose canonical is https://thomas-global.com/about-us/news. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 41 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9685
  • 14 small tap targets

    14 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 932 words of copy

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (5 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block and 1 customer or partner logo.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics 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.

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 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 thomas-global.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
