Speed

12 to fix52
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

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

  • Main-thread work: 6.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 955 KiB

    About 955 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (route.com, Google Tag Manager and Privy and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 52

    52/100

    Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 796 KiB

    22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (796 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 180 KiB

    About 180 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.

  • route.com adds 549 ms

    549 ms

    route.com costs a phone 549 ms of main-thread work and 717 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.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 455 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 304 ms

    304 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 304 ms of main-thread work and 336 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 35 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 35 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1,666 HTML elements

    The page has 1,666 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    155 KiB

    5 images could be 155 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    104 KiB

    104 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Minify CSS

    13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix46
  • Time to Interactive: 24.3 s

    24.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 24.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.5 s

    8.5 s

    Your largest element takes 8.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “1212gateway”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 786 ms

    786 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 786 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 13 images without width and height

    13 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: 0.002

    0.002

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.7 MB in 266 requests

    3.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 266 requests on a phone: scripts 2.1 MB (73), other files 942 KiB (151) and images 450 KiB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 4 images below the first screen load straight away

    4 images further down the page (230 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.04 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.04 g of CO₂e: 125.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 7888
  • 54 text elements with low contrast

    54 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Hidden but focusable

    8 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 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.

  • 15 form fields without a label

    15 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), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 47 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 36 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: 36 passed and 8 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9284
  • No H1 headline

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

  • Structured data has 8 problems

    Structured data found (Product) but with 8 problems, for example “Product: image is not an absolute URL ("//1212gateway.com/cdn/shop/products/MeadowFlowerMoisturizer…”.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 56 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 56 pages on 1212gateway.com and 6 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 141 characters

    Your meta description is 141 characters: “Discover and shop our collection of clean, green, and cruelty-free beauty skincare products derived from all-natural an…”.

  • Title: 65 characters

    Your title is a healthy 65 characters: “Clean and Cruelty-Free Beauty and Skincare Products | 1212gateway”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://1212gateway.com/.

  • 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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://1212gateway.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.

  • No llms.txt

    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.

2 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 (1,053 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 3 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 3 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /collections/all/products/meadowflower, whose canonical is /products/meadowflower. 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 25 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    5 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 5 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 5 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 9 small tap targets

    9 of 24 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Received "error" from /start _.<anonymous> (https://1212gateway.com/web-pixels/strict/app/web-pixel-934772898@0fb803945…”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://1212gateway.com/checkout.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (1212gateway.com).

  • Valid certificate (56 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for 1212gateway.com and is valid for another 56 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://1212gateway.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 34 links work

    All 34 links checked from your homepage (28 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    1212gateway.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    1212gateway.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 7 years old

    7 years

    1212gateway.com was registered in Oct 2019 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    1212gateway.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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 360 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 360 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP HERE”.

  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Shop here” and “Shop The Collection”.

  • 16 short forms

    16 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Email authentication

2 to fix35
  • No DMARC policy

    1212gateway.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 35/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:dc-aa8e722993._spfm.1212gateway.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amplitude, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and 1 more (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.

  • 24 cookies set on arrival

    24

    Opening the homepage sets 24 cookies, 2 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.

  • 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.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 13 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.
