Speed

11 to fix45
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.8 s · 1.2 MB

    About 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 45

    45/100

    Your mobile performance score is 45. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    500 ms · 7.9 MB

    25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (7.9 MB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and complyauto.com and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 847 ms

    847 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 847 ms of main-thread work and 1.0 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

    900 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 900 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 103 KiB

    About 103 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 321 ms

    321 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 321 ms of main-thread work and 734 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    361 KiB

    11 images could be 361 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • complyauto.com adds 256 ms

    256 ms

    complyauto.com costs a phone 256 ms of main-thread work and 121 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 233 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    8 KiB

    8 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.0 s

    21.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.5 s

    6.5 s

    Your largest element takes 6.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.2 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 6.7 s

    6.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user INP: 204 ms

    204 ms

    Real visitors wait 204 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 175% slower for real visitors

    +175%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 388 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user TTFB: 812 ms

    812 ms

    Real visitors wait 812 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.6 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.047

    0.047

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.047, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 11.7 MB in 114 requests

    11.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.7 MB in 114 requests on a phone: media 7.6 MB (2), scripts 2.6 MB (56) and images 800 KiB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    8f2b62962a506dcc.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).

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    3 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 4b088034ffbbe9d4.webp at 1,000 px wide, shown at 328 px. Resized copies would save about 3 KiB.

  • About 3.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.31 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.31 g of CO₂e: 397.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 9694
  • 3 tap targets too small

    3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 6 images without alt text

    6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 4 form fields without a label

    4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

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

1 checks passed
  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 4 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10089
  • Title is long (102 characters)

    Your title is 102 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Transwest Automotive Group - RVs, Trucks, Commercial Trailers, Personal and Fleet Vehicle…”.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: missing name”.

  • 197 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 197 pages on transwest.com and 5 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “New and used RVs, trucks, trailers, and other vehicles for both commercial and personal use. Browse thousands of makes …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “YourTransportationSolution”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.transwest.com/.

  • 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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.transwest.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing name, 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 https://www.transwest.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 (1,415 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix90
  • 3 pages point its canonical at the homepage

    https://www.transwest.com/cars-trucks-suvs-vans/type/all/store, https://www.transwest.com/trucks/type/all/store and https://www.transwest.com/trucks/rent-or-buy/all/store declare the homepage as their canonical URL, which tells Google they are copies of the homepage and keeps them out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.transwest.com/rv took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 95 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • 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 7385
  • 8 small tap targets

    8 of 33 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix81
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • 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 opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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 1,351 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,351 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 18 calls to action

    The homepage has 18 calls to action, for example “Shop Inventory” and “Contact Us”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 26 testimonial or review blocks, 40 customer or partner logos and 81 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

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

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 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.

  • 15 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 15 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 transwest.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
