webroot.com website review

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

A phone's processor spends 5.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Optimizely and Optanon and others), adding 823 KiB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 904 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

31 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (584 KiB).

20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 508 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Facebook costs a phone 396 ms of main-thread work and 280 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.

About 85 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

Polyfills for old browsers add 76 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

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.

The page becomes fully interactive after 22.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 2.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 127 ms to 185 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.1 s to 2.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real visitors wait 872 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

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

Your homepage downloads 3.9 MB in 184 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (45), fonts 737 KiB (6) and images 527 KiB (37). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.11 g of CO₂e: 133.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

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

Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

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

Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

The homepage links to 81 pages on webroot.com and 15 external pages.

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.

/blog, /support/how-to-guides and /customers/renewal took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 36 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “$ is not defined”.

1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

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 phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage carries about 932 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

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