Speed

10 to fix35
  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 s · 5.9 MB

    12 images could be 5.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.5 s · 1.2 MB

    About 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    4.2 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.2 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 35

    35/100

    Your mobile performance score is 35 (desktop: 48). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 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 CDN, Google Tag Manager and website-files.com and others), adding 10.4 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.

  • website-files.com adds 246 ms

    246 ms

    website-files.com costs a phone 246 ms of main-thread work and 8.5 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 CDN adds 795 ms

    795 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 795 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 70 KiB

    About 70 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 655 ms

    655 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 655 ms of main-thread work and 635 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 151 KiB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (151 KiB).

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 211 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    31 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix43
  • First Contentful Paint: 10.7 s

    10.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 10.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 20.2 s

    20.2 s

    Your largest element takes 20.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The new blog "The promise of AI for enterprise organization…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.6 s

    21.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 10.7 s

    10.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 10.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 907 ms

    907 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 907 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 18 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.058

    0.058

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.058, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 11.6 MB in 118 requests

    11.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.6 MB in 118 requests on a phone: images 8.3 MB (23), scripts 2.3 MB (34) and fonts 485 KiB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    660f66cf457f2a06a45d637a_Enterprise AI TODAY (1).svg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 3.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.28 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.28 g of CO₂e: 393.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8992
  • 6 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

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

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

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

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 45 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10086
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 58 internal links, 17 external

    The homepage links to 58 pages on virtasant.com and 17 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 126 characters

    Your meta description is 126 characters: “We are a global team of cloud experts. We provide an end-to-end set of capabilities to help organizations thrive in the…”.

  • Title: 42 characters

    Your title is a healthy 42 characters: “Cloud Solutions, Cloud Experts | Virtasant”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • 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 and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://virtasant.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 /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 (883 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix76
  • 1 page points its canonical at the homepage

    /cloud-cost-optimization-guide declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 2 pages share a title

    / and /cloud-cost-optimization-guide all use the title “Cloud Solutions, Cloud Experts | Virtasant”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    /blog and /case-studies use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 5 pages without an H1

    /aws, /gcp, /azure-partner, /cloud-cost-optimization-guide and /case-studies have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 27 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (virtasant.com).

  • Valid certificate (43 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for virtasant.com and is valid for another 43 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://virtasant.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (31 internal, 14 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    virtasant.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    virtasant.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 6 years old

    6 years

    virtasant.com was registered in Mar 2020 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Mar 2027

    virtasant.com is registered until Mar 2027.

Content and conversion

1 to fix94
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

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

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • About 409 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 409 words of visible text.

8 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Start Reading AI Content” and “Learn More”.

  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Start Reading AI Content”, “Learn More” and “Try our diagnostic tool”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block, 12 customer or partner logos and 8 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

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

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:amazonses.com include:mg-spf.greenhouse.io -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

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

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15
