Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 1,016 KiBAbout 1,016 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
mypurecloud.com.au adds 1.4 s
1.4 smypurecloud.com.au costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 825 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.2 s
1.2 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.2 s of main-thread work and 684 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 36
36/100Your mobile performance score is 36. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.8 s
A phone's processor spends 9.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
9,183 HTML elements
The page has 9,183 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (mypurecloud.com.au, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 1.8 MB and 3.1 s of main-thread time.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 2.1 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
800 ms · 472 KiB93 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (472 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
90 KiB90 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 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.

Server response: 1 ms
1 msYour server sent the HTML in 1 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.
Real-user FCP: 3.7 s
3.7 sReal visitors see the first content after 3.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.6 s
13.6 sYour largest element takes 13.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “mobile”.
Total Blocking Time: 4.9 s
4.9 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 4.9 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Time to Interactive: 22.2 s
22.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 22.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.9 s
7.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 3.7 s
3.7 sReal visitors wait 3.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user INP: 349 ms
349 msReal visitors wait 349 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 77% slower for real visitors
+77%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 173 ms to 311 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 71% slower for real visitors
+71%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 3.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
3 images without width and height
3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

First Contentful Paint: 0.8 s
0.8 sThe first text or image appears after 0.8 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 191 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 191 requests on a phone: scripts 2.0 MB (101), other files 589 KiB (45) and images 191 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
media_19e9311bfa148be32b81504013d380cf399cfdf89.webp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.84 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.84 g of CO₂e: 101.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 buttons without a name
3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Links must have discernible text (2 elements)
Links must have discernible text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 16 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 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: 44 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Home Loans - Helping teachers feel right at home”, “Australian Government - Help to Buy Scheme is now…” and “World Teachers’ Day - Take Five to recognise a co…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
7 links with vague text
7 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
41 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 41 pages on tmbank.com.au and 6 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 146 characters
Your meta description is 146 characters: “Bank with Teachers Mutual Bank, the member-owned bank for educators. Explore home loans, savings accounts and everyday …”.
Title: 49 characters
Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “Teachers Mutual Bank | Banking, Loans and Savings”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.tmbank.com.au/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
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.tmbank.com.au/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.
Some text only appears after JavaScript runs
59%The HTML your server sends has 575 of the 979 words a browser shows. AI crawlers don't run JavaScript, so they miss the rest.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.tmbank.com.au/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.
Other pages
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.tmbank.com.au/banking/term-deposit, whose canonical is https://www.tmbank.com.au/banking/term-deposit-account. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page with very little text
https://www.tmbank.com.au/personal-loans/car-loans has 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.
15 internal pages checked

Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Content security policy”).
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
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.
About 979 words of copy
The homepage carries about 979 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact”.
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Learn more” and “Start saving”.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Insight, Meta Pixel and Quantcast and 1 more (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.
12 cookies set on arrival
12Opening the homepage sets 12 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.
18 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 18 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 tmbank.com.au, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
