Speed

7 to fix61
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.7 s · 363 KiB

    About 363 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.8 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 422 KiB

    6 images could be 422 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 61

    61/100

    Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    800 ms · 75 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (75 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 121 KiB

    About 121 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 21 ms

    21 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 21 ms of main-thread work and 586 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

    250 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 250 ms).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (FullStory, ZenDesk and Shopify and others), adding 962 KiB and 117 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 10 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. 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 151 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 414 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix67
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.2 s

    13.2 s

    Your 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 13.4 s

    13.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 13.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.0 s

    7.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 14 images without width and height

    14 images 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: 51 ms

    51 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 51 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix68
  • Page weight: 3.0 MB in 178 requests

    3.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 178 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (19), other files 784 KiB (105) and scripts 718 KiB (36). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 6 images below the first screen load straight away

    6 images further down the page (778 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    323 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example zhortech-b2b-become-an-innovation-leader.png at 2,352 px wide, shown at 340 px. Resized copies would save about 323 KiB.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.85 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 101.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8492
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 14 images without alt text

    14 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 40 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 5438
  • Page is set to noindex

    The robots meta tag says “noindex”: Google is told not to list this page at all.

  • No meta description

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

  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Blocked from indexing

    Google's crawler is blocked from indexing this page.

  • Title is short (15 characters)

    Your title is only 15 characters: “🧳 BAL Inc. B2B”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 5 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 5 pages on zhortech.com and 5 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://zhortech.com/.

  • 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://zhortech.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,454 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://zhortech.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix88
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://zhortech.com/pages/smartshoe is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://zhortech.com/pages/smartshoe has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 internal page checked

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

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 1 page we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • Every page has a title

    All 1 page that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9692
  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of null (reading 'asset_urls')”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 1,447 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,447 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact Us”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Meta Pixel and Amplitude.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 2 email links.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads FullStory (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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 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.

  • 13 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 13 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 zhortech.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.
