Speed

4 to fix86
  • Render-blocking requests

    3.2 s

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.2 s.

  • 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: 86

    86/100

    Your mobile performance score is 86. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • web-repository.com adds 110 ms

    110 ms

    web-repository.com costs a phone 110 ms of main-thread work and 417 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

    164 KiB

    About 164 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (web-repository.com, Google Fonts and app-sources.com), adding 464 KiB and 111 ms of main-thread time.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 71 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    29 KiB

    1 image could be 29 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 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: 0.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 55 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 30 ms

    30 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 30 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix93
  • First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.0 s

    3.0 s

    Your largest element takes 3.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Build Tomorrow's Software Today”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.3 s).

  • Time to Interactive: 4.5 s

    4.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 6 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.13 g of CO₂e: 15.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 479 KiB in 13 requests

    479 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 479 KiB in 13 requests on a phone: scripts 244 KiB (2), stylesheets 177 KiB (6) and images 30 KiB (1). That is a lean page.

  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 9294
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 2 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 21 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 23 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 21 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9294
  • No structured data

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

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 6 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 6 pages on wau.co and 0 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “Custom AI and blockchain development for innovative businesses. Specializing in intelligent automation, decentralized s…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Build Tomorrow's Software Today”.

  • Title: 48 characters

    Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “WAU.CO | AI & Decentralized Technology Solutions”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://wau.co/.

  • 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://wau.co/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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://wau.co/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.

1 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.

Other pages

100
  • 1 internal page checked

    We fetched 1 page linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 1 page we checked loaded without an error.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10092
  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://static.web-repository.com/styles/platform.client.min.css?v=1254' from origin 'http…”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix67
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 6 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 18 words

    The homepage has only about 18 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.

2 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Get in touch”.

  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Get in touch”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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