Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
6.3 s · 1.5 MB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).
Improve image delivery
2.5 s · 806 KiB11 images could be 806 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.0 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.0 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 221 KiBAbout 221 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 63
63/100Your mobile performance score is 63 (desktop: 85). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Font display
750 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 750 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 33 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 33 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, OptiMonk and Google Analytics and others), adding 462 KiB and 215 ms of main-thread time.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 17 KiB17 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 55 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
16 KiBAbout 16 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 414 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 126 ms
126 msYour server sent the HTML in 126 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 13.2 s
13.2 sYour largest element takes 13.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Hero Picture”.
Time to Interactive: 13.3 s
13.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s
3.3 sThe first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user LCP: 3.5 s
3.5 sReal visitors wait 3.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.12
0.12For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.12 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Real-user FCP: 2.2 s
2.2 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.5 s
1.5 sReal visitors wait 1.5 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Speed Index: 4.8 s
4.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
26 images without width and height
26 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+1%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 144 ms to 144 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+6%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.2 s to 3.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real-user INP: 152 ms
152 msReal visitors wait 152 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.098
0.098The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.098, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 5 ms
5 msScripts block the page for only 5 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.1 MB in 61 requests
2.1 MBYour homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 61 requests on a phone: images 883 KiB (12), scripts 819 KiB (18) and other files 278 KiB (22). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
7 images in older formats
7 images (800 KiB) 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.
2 images far larger than shown
252 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example logo-white-r-6ebd93444f98cba58ec9faf514430411.png at 4,204 px wide, shown at 44 px. Resized copies would save about 252 KiB.
7 images below the first screen load straight away
7 images further down the page (261 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.60 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.60 g of CO₂e: 72.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
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.
28 images without alt text
28 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)
Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 checks passed
31 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: 31 passed and 7 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.
21 H1 headlines
There are 21 <h1> headlines (“Cloud & Integrations”, “Mobile” and “UX/UI”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at x-hub.io/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
7 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 7 pages on x-hub.io and 4 external pages.
4 checks passed
Meta description: 109 characters
Your meta description is 109 characters: “Probably the best digital accelerator in problem solving & tech excellence with DevOps & Agile styles of work”.
Title: 46 characters
Your title is a healthy 46 characters: “xHub | Home page | Your Agile Delivery partner”.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://x-hub.io/sitemap.xml.
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://x-hub.io/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.
Other pages
4 pages share a meta description
https://x-hub.io/what-we-do, https://x-hub.io/work, https://x-hub.io/contact and https://x-hub.io/prez use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 pages with very little text
https://x-hub.io/contact and https://x-hub.io/prez have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
4 internal pages checked
We fetched 4 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.
7 checks passed

Best practices
3 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
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.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 24 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 121 words
The homepage has only about 121 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
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Download our borchure”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “get in touch” and “Download our borchure”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Meta Pixel (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.
8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.
12 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 12 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 x-hub.io, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
