Speed

3 to fix99
  • 2,239 HTML elements

    The page has 2,239 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Wistia), adding 1.4 MB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

  • Wistia adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    Wistia costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.4 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 27 KiB

    About 27 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 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.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.44 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.44 g of CO₂e: 53.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.6 MB in 24 requests

    1.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.6 MB in 24 requests on a phone: media 1.4 MB (1), HTML 54 KiB (1) and images 41 KiB (6). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

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

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • 84 links without text

    84 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 73 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 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 0 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Only about 118 words

    The homepage has only about 118 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Book a Demo”, “Careers Join our team” and “Locations Global offices & contact info”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 7 testimonial or review blocks, 1 customer or partner logo, a star rating, 8 trust badges and “400+ Customers”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (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.

  • 1 other company contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 1 host run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 toolsgroup.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
