Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 13 KiBAbout 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cloudflare and Google Analytics), adding 170 KiB and 118 ms of main-thread time.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 80 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
69 KiBAbout 69 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
20 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 20 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
5 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).
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.

Mobile performance score: 96
96/100Your mobile performance score is 96. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).
Main-thread work: 0.8 s
A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 203 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 5.2 s
5.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
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.

Time to Interactive: 3.6 s
3.6 sThe page is fully interactive after 3.6 s.
First Contentful Paint: 1.4 s
1.4 sThe first text or image appears after 1.4 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Largest Contentful Paint: 1.4 s
1.4 sYour largest element renders in 1.4 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Vishu turns ambiguity into direction teams can rally behind…”.
Total Blocking Time: 30 ms
30 msScripts block the page for only 30 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit
0.12 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.12 g of CO₂e: 14.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Page weight: 445 KiB in 25 requests
445 KiBYour homepage downloads 445 KiB in 25 requests on a phone: scripts 280 KiB (13), fonts 127 KiB (6) and stylesheets 17 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Accessibility
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 12 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
37 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: 37 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://vishu.design/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
10 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 10 pages on vishu.design and 6 external pages.
4 checks passed
Meta description: 155 characters
Your meta description is 155 characters: “Designer based in London with more than a decade of user centered design experience building consumer and saas products…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Vishu turns ambiguity into direction teams can rally behind|”.
Title: 38 characters
Your title is a healthy 38 characters: “Vishu Singh - Product Design Portfolio”.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
AI search readiness
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://vishu.design/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 5 crawlers
robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.
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 (294 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
5 pages share a meta description
https://vishu.design/about, https://vishu.design/case-studies/ranking-dashboard, https://vishu.design/case-studies/peppertap, https://vishu.design/case-studies/linkedin and https://vishu.design/case-studies/that use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
11 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

Content and conversion
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 direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 236 words
The homepage has only about 236 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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.
3 checks passed

Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before 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.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 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.
3 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 3 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 vishu.design, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
