Render-blocking requests
1.2 s14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68 (desktop: 93). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Avoid multiple page redirects
780 msThe page goes through 1 redirect before it starts loading, costing about 780 ms. Link and advertise the final URL directly.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 110 KiBAbout 110 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cloudflare CDN and jQuery CDN and others), adding 316 KiB and 261 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
200 ms · 52 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (52 KiB).
Document request latency
250 msThe HTML itself could arrive about 250 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Improve image delivery
200 ms · 9 KiB1 image could be 9 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 12 KiBAbout 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 107 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 93 but mobile only 68. 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.

Images and page weight
About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit
0.10 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.10 g of CO₂e: 12.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 373 KiB in 22 requests
373 KiBYour homepage downloads 373 KiB in 22 requests on a phone: scripts 297 KiB (8), stylesheets 36 KiB (7) and images 18 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 6 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
27 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 30 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 27 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (14 characters)
Your title is only 14 characters: “TST-CF Express”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
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://tst-cfexpress.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
55 internal links, 26 external
The homepage links to 55 pages on tst-cfexpress.com and 26 external pages.
2 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.tst-cfexpress.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
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://tst-cfexpress.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
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Other pages
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 42 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
1 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Best practices
No mobile viewport
No viewport meta tag, so phones render the desktop layout zoomed out.
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “The Content Security Policy directive 'upgrade-insecure-requests' is ignored when delivered in a report-only policy.”.
No HTML doctype
The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
1 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
8 of 8 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
A 8-field form
Your longest form asks for 8 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
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 7 words
The homepage has only about 7 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Transit Schedule”.
12 calls to action
The homepage has 12 calls to action, for example “Holiday Schedule”, “My Address Book” and “Pickup Request”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Risk reducer mentioned

Privacy and tracking

3Before 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.
9 cookies set on arrival
9Opening the homepage sets 9 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.
7 other companies contacted

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 tst-cfexpress.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
