trustetc.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 164 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 450 ms.

The page has 2,238 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

nitrocdn.com costs a phone 15 ms of main-thread work and 460 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.

Google Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 317 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.

2 third-party services load with your homepage (nitrocdn.com and Google Fonts), adding 776 KiB and 15 ms of main-thread time.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 6.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

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

The page becomes fully interactive after 6.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 188 ms to 200 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.35 g of CO₂e: 42.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

6 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 37 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

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

Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Your title is 84 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Self-Directed IRA, 401K and Real Estate Investment Custodians – Equity Trust Company”.

Your meta description is 165 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

The homepage links to 304 pages on trustetc.com and 71 external pages.

https://www.trustetc.com/lp/request-info-2 is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 67 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

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

Your longest form asks for 25 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

The homepage has only about 91 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

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

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

Opening the homepage sets 2 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 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
