One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

6 to fix49
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3.9 s · 1.6 MB

    292 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.6 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    2.3 s

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 2.3 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 49

    49/100

    Your mobile performance score is 49 (desktop: 76). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 372 KiB

    About 372 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 405 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 3.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    26 KiB

    About 26 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    20 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 20 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 76 but mobile only 49. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Other Google APIs/SDKs), adding 4 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 21 ms

    21 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 21 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

12 to fix0
  • 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 LCP: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    Real visitors wait 4.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.41

    0.41

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.41 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 3.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.3 s

    6.3 s

    Your largest element takes 6.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Market intelligence on Tridge’s own product classification …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 12.3 s

    12.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 12.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.5 s

    6.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user INP: 467 ms

    467 ms

    Real visitors wait 467 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 24% slower for real visitors

    +24%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.1 s to 5.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 519 ms

    519 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 519 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

2 checks passed
  • Tap response (INP) got 11% faster for real visitors

    -11%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 382 ms to 344 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002

    0.002

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix67
  • Page weight: 2.1 MB in 297 requests

    2.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 297 requests on a phone: scripts 1.6 MB (287), fonts 414 KiB (4) and other files 117 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.60 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.60 g of CO₂e: 72.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8189
  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 23 tap targets too small

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

  • 13 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (31 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 31 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 41 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: 41 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

Google 92100
  • 40 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 40 pages on tridge.com and 9 external pages.

8 checks passed
  • Meta description: 144 characters

    Your meta description is 144 characters: “Agri-food market intelligence and a B2B trade network. 682M+ trade data points, 350K+ companies, 200+ markets. Start wi…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Intelligence That Moves Markets.”.

  • Title: 41 characters

    Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Tridge -- Intelligence That Moves Markets”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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.tridge.com/new-market-overview-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • Parts of the site are closed to 5 AI crawlers

    Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude search (Claude-SearchBot), Claude (Claude-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.

  • Opted out of AI training for 1 crawler

    robots.txt blocks CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.

3 checks passed
  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (774 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (8 KiB, 31 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix88
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /trade-hub/browse is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /market-curations has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 28 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.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • 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 a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 113 small tap targets

    113 of 147 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

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.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (tridge.com).

  • Valid certificate (36 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WR3 verifies for tridge.com and is valid for another 36 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://tridge.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 39 links work

    All 39 links checked from your homepage (30 internal, 9 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    tridge.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    tridge.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 23 years old

    23 years

    tridge.com was registered in May 2003 through eNom, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until May 2028

    tridge.com is registered until May 2028.

Content and conversion

3 to fix70
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: “725,009+ companies”. 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 935 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 935 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: “Get started”.

  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Pricing”, “Get started” and “Talk to our team”.

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.mlsend.com a mx include:spf.mtasv.net include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.google.com include:ama…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “k1” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amplitude, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Hotjar and 3 mores (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.

  • 18 cookies set on arrival

    18

    Opening the homepage sets 18 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.

  • 23 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 23 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
