Speed

8 to fix52
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.6 s · 699 KiB

    About 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 KiB

    8 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 s

    13 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 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (338 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 52

    52/100

    Your 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 ms

    Google 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 ms

    Google 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 KiB

    30 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    33 KiB

    About 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
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 469 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix60
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.1 s

    13.1 s

    Your largest element takes 13.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 13.1 s

    13.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 13.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.5 s

    8.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 288 ms

    288 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 288 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 14% slower for real visitors

    +14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 2.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 10.3 MB in 51 requests

    10.3 MB

    Your 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 g

    By 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

3 to fixGoogle 8595
  • 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.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10097
  • No social preview image

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

  • 67 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 67 pages on united-rotary.com and 8 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 138 characters

    Your meta description is 138 characters: “United Rotary Brush manufactures replacement brooms for all makes and models of municipal, contractor and runway sweepe…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Rotary Pavement Brooms”.

  • Title: 51 characters

    Your title is a healthy 51 characters: “United Rotary Brush - Rotary Street Sweeping Brooms”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://united-rotary.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, LocalBusiness, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://united-rotary.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (590 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 54 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

2 to fixGoogle 10087
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 10 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix78
  • 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

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

  • About 418 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 418 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Shop Now” and “Sign Up”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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