Render-blocking requests
2.4 s2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.
Mobile performance score: 78
78/100Your mobile performance score is 78 (desktop: 88). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
500 ms · 73 KiBAbout 73 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts and Google Analytics), adding 234 KiB and 142 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 80 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Main-thread work: 0.2 s
A phone's processor spends 0.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 131 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 1 ms
1 msYour server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 12.1 s
12.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 12.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s
2.7 sThe first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 3.4 s
3.4 sYour largest element takes 3.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “WE GET THE JOB DONE”. Most of its time is element render delay (7.4 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.
3 checks passed
Time to Interactive: 3.5 s
3.5 sThe page is fully interactive after 3.5 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.004
0.004The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.004, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 51 ms
51 msScripts block the page for only 51 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
About 0.07 g of CO₂ per visit
0.07 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.07 g of CO₂e: 8.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Page weight: 244 KiB in 9 requests
244 KiBYour homepage downloads 244 KiB in 9 requests on a phone: scripts 179 KiB (1), fonts 53 KiB (3) and images 6 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Accessibility
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.
1 checks passed
26 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 27 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 26 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (70 characters)
Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Towncriers Limited | Foremost Experiential Marketing Agency in Nigeria”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
Meta description is long (183 characters)
Your meta description is 183 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://towncriersng.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at towncriersng.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
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 https://towncriersng.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.
1 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Best practices
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: “over 200+ brands”. 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.
Only about 31 words
The homepage has only about 31 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.

Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before 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
2Opening 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.
4 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 4 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 towncriersng.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
