Speed

13 to fix55
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

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

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (hsappstatic.net, Google Tag Manager and website-files.com and others), adding 12.7 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • website-files.com adds 269 ms

    269 ms

    website-files.com costs a phone 269 ms of main-thread work and 10.6 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    895 KiB

    About 895 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    812 KiB

    6 images could be 812 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • hsappstatic.net adds 498 ms

    498 ms

    hsappstatic.net costs a phone 498 ms of main-thread work and 716 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

    300 ms · 156 KiB

    About 156 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.

  • Main-thread work: 4.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 360 ms

    360 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 360 ms of main-thread work and 332 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.

  • 11 long tasks on the main thread

    11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 314 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Google CDN adds 239 ms

    239 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 239 ms of main-thread work and 748 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.

  • 2,246 HTML elements

    The page has 2,246 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    215 KiB

    43 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (215 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix0

  • Tap response (INP) got 58% slower for real visitors

    +58%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 153 ms to 249 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.5 s

    1.8 s

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

  • 5 images without width and height

2 checks passed
  • Largest content (LCP) got 30% faster for real visitors

    -30%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.6 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.087

    0.087

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.087, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 13.3 MB in 213 requests

    13.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 13.3 MB in 213 requests on a phone: images 10.2 MB (90), scripts 2.3 MB (81) and other files 376 KiB (25). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 33 images in older formats

    33 images (2.9 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.

  • 23 images below the first screen load straight away

    23 images further down the page (2.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.77 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.77 g of CO₂e: 452.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9495
  • Links must have discernible text (1 element)

    Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (34 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 34 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.

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h5, h3 → h6 and h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 120 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 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: 43 passed and 4 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 10092
  • 7 H1 headlines

    There are 7 <h1> headlines (“More”, “$100K” and “7X”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Organization data: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7391
  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 410 ()”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

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

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 2,157 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,157 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Get A Free Strategy Call” and “Free Cold Call Scripts”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 227 testimonial or review blocks, 1 trust badge and “Over 350 Companies”.

  • Analytics in place

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight and 1 more (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.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies, 9 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 37 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 37 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner

    A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) loads with the page.

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