Speed

12 to fix36
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    8.7 s · 4.7 MB

    38 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4.7 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    5.9 s · 3.5 MB

    8 images could be 3.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.4 s · 532 KiB

    About 532 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 36

    36/100

    Your mobile performance score is 36. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Vimeo and Hubspot and others), adding 17.4 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Vimeo adds 322 ms

    322 ms

    Vimeo costs a phone 322 ms of main-thread work and 16.7 MB 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 Tag Manager adds 757 ms

    757 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 757 ms of main-thread work and 505 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    490 ms · 66 KiB

    About 66 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 490 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    500 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 500 ms).

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 379 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    45 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 45 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    20 KiB

    20 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • 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: 31.4 s

    31.4 s

    Your largest element takes 31.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience, serve p…”.

  • Speed Index: 17.8 s

    17.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 17.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 32.3 s

    32.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 32.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.4 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 17 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 17% slower for real visitors

    +17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 83 ms to 101 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, 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).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 103 ms

    103 ms

    Real visitors wait 103 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.098

    0.098

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.098, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 22.0 MB in 96 requests

    22.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 22.0 MB in 96 requests on a phone: other files 16.2 MB (41), images 4.4 MB (24) and scripts 1.2 MB (23). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images over 500 KB

    5 images weigh 3.6 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 11 images in older formats

    11 images (4.2 MB) 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.

  • 10 images below the first screen load straight away

    10 images further down the page (3.7 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 6.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    6.23 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 6.23 g of CO₂e: 747.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 7988
  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Frames without titles

    1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

  • Links must have discernible text (1 element)

    Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 3 images without alt text

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

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings should not be empty (4 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 8593
  • Title is short (11 characters)

    Your title is only 11 characters: “Home - VCCP”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.

  • 37 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 37 pages on vccp.com and 4 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “At VCCP, our challenger attitude transforms the fortunes of our clients. For example, we helped O2 become market leader…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “What's new at VCCP”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.vccp.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.vccp.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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://www.vccp.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.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (202 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://www.vccp.com/global-work and https://www.vccp.com/careers have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://www.vccp.com/careers has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.vccp.com/work/white-claw/grab-life-by-the-claw took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 25 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 5888
  • 2 third-party cookies

    2 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “e.getAttribute is not a function https://www.vccp.com/wp-content/themes/vccp-theme/js/lib.js?v=3-0-14:122:21 NodeList.f…”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    18 of 21 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • Only about 212 words

    The homepage has only about 212 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Contact any of our offices”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 3 email links.

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 10 cookies set on arrival

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 28 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 28 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: CookieYes

    A consent management tool (CookieYes) loads with the page.

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