trulia.com website review

About 407 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (243 KiB).

A phone's processor spends 5.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Your mobile performance score is 57 (desktop: 84). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

18 images could be 637 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 30 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.

The page has 1,868 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (LiveRamp Privacy Manager, zg-api.com and Adobe Tag Manager and others), adding 410 KiB and 164 ms of main-thread time.

Polyfills for old browsers add 44 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 155 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Desktop scores 84 but mobile only 57. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

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.

Your 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 “residents of the neighborhood standing on steps in a tree c…”.

Visually, the page fills in at 10.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 14.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Real visitors wait 925 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 113 ms to 111 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 97 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (31), scripts 1.1 MB (36) and other files 78 KiB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

6 images (397 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

1 image further down the page (33 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

Interactive controls must not be nested: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

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

Your meta description is 172 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 208 pages on trulia.com and 31 external pages.

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.

/ and /post-rental all use the title “Trulia: Real Estate Listings, Homes For Sale, Housing Data”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

/post-rental has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

/refinance-rates/Reston,VA took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 183 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to send UEP event [object Object] Error: window.ua was never initialized. The zepEvent call failed.”.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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.

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

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,181 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Comscore, Google Ads and Google Analytics (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.

Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 20 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
