Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.5 s · 617 KiBAbout 617 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.3 s · 1.8 MB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.8 MB).
Render-blocking requests
2.1 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your mobile performance score is 47 (desktop: 69). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Improve image delivery
1.5 MB3 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Wistia and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 685 ms
685 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 685 ms of main-thread work and 682 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.
Font display
400 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 400 ms).
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 86 KiB86 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 73 KiBAbout 73 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.
Minify CSS
300 ms · 58 KiB58 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 223 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
20 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 20 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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: 1.9 s
A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s 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
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: 14.6 s
14.6 sYour largest element takes 14.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

Images and page weight
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 1.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
538 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 93760-SuperEvac-PLUS-II-with-strap-scaled.jpg at 2,560 px wide, shown at 315 px. Resized copies would save about 538 KiB.
Page weight: 3.4 MB in 56 requests
3.4 MBYour homepage downloads 3.4 MB in 56 requests on a phone: images 1.7 MB (17), scripts 1.4 MB (17) and fonts 188 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (1.5 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.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.96 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.96 g of CO₂e: 115.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
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.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 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
Meta description is long (164 characters)
Your meta description is 164 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://yellowjacket.com/wp-sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
67 internal links, 8 external
The homepage links to 67 pages on yellowjacket.com and 8 external pages.
6 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Yellow Jacket”.
Title: 59 characters
Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “HVAC Supply - Gauges, Adapters & More - From YELLOW JACKET®”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://yellowjacket.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
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.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://yellowjacket.com/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.
3 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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (348 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://yellowjacket.com/products, https://yellowjacket.com/sales-reps and https://yellowjacket.com/firmware-updates have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://yellowjacket.com/products, whose canonical is https://yellowjacket.com/product. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 28 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
38 of 39 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
A 15-field form
Your longest form asks for 15 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
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.
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 294 words of copy
The homepage carries about 294 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “CONTACT” and “DOWNLOAD CATALOG”.
5 calls to action

Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent

8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 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.
16 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 yellowjacket.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
