Speed

7 to fix74
  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 s · 810 KiB

    6 images could be 810 KiB 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

    900 ms · 184 KiB

    About 184 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 750 ms.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, LinkedIn Ads and JSDelivr CDN and others), adding 1.7 MB and 215 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 188 ms

    188 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 188 ms of main-thread work and 353 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.

  • frb.io adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    frb.io costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    200 ms · 38 KiB

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

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 120 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    10 KiB

    About 10 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 195 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 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: 9.2 s

    9.2 s

    Your largest element takes 9.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Manufacturing high-reliability electronic solutions.”.

  • Time to Interactive: 9.2 s

    9.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 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.

8 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors wait 1.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • 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: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 34% faster for real visitors

    -34%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 73 ms

    73 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 73 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.011

    0.011

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.011, good is under 0.1).

  • Speed Index: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.9 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

2 to fix83
  • 8 images in older formats

    8 images (1.2 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.

  • 6 images below the first screen load straight away

    6 images further down the page (716 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.48 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.48 g of CO₂e: 57.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.7 MB in 34 requests

    1.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 34 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (9), scripts 424 KiB (7) and fonts 27 KiB (2). That is a lean page.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

Google 100100
2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 8 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 38 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: 38 passed and 0 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10087
  • Title is long (69 characters)

    Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Virtex | High-Reliability Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) |…”.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, LocalBusiness, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: missing name”.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 36 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 36 pages on virtex.us and 3 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “Virtex builds critical technologies for aerospace, defense, space, medical device and industrial markets powered by pur…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Trusted for critical electronics. Built for complexity. Proven to perform.”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.virtex.us/.

  • 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://www.virtex.us/sitemaps-1-sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

2 to fix53
  • robots.txt blocks 1 AI answer engine crawler

    1 of 6

    Your robots.txt shuts out Perplexity (PerplexityBot). These fetch pages to answer people's questions and cite the source, so your site can't be quoted or linked in those answers.

  • Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • 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.

  • Opted out of AI training for 2 crawlers

    robots.txt blocks GPTBot and Google-Extended, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers.

1 checks passed
  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (298 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 22 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 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.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    5 of 6 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix79
  • http:// does not redirect

    http://virtex.us does not redirect to https, so some visitors land on the insecure version.

  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

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

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (virtex.us).

  • Valid certificate (81 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for virtex.us and is valid for another 81 days.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 26 links work

    All 26 links checked from your homepage (23 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    virtex.us 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.

Content and conversion

2 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.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No opening hours

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

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 257 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 257 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Direct Order Fulfillment”, “Contact” and “Contact us”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

  • 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.

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.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.office365.us -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight (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.

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
