Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.6 s · 699 KiBAbout 699 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
2.7 s · 946 KiB8 images could be 946 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
3.5 s13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.5 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 338 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (338 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 52
52/100Your mobile performance score is 52 (desktop: 88). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Maps and Google CDN and others), adding 1.2 MB and 661 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 408 ms
408 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 408 ms of main-thread work and 709 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 Maps adds 195 ms
195 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 195 ms of main-thread work and 392 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.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 232 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 30 KiB30 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Reduce unused CSS
33 KiBAbout 33 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 88 but mobile only 52. 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.
2 checks passed

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.3 MB in 51 requests
10.3 MBYour homepage downloads 10.3 MB in 51 requests on a phone: media 7.5 MB (2), images 1.5 MB (14) and scripts 1.2 MB (20). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.93 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.93 g of CO₂e: 351.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
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
11 text elements with low contrast
11 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), 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.
34 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 38 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 34 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://united-rotary.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.
3 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.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
A 94-field form
Your longest form asks for 94 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
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
