Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.4 s · 1.0 MBAbout 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.2 s · 716 KiB28 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (716 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Yotpo, osano.com and reddit and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 61). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
550 ms10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.
Main-thread work: 4.0 s
A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Yotpo adds 295 ms
295 msYotpo costs a phone 295 ms of main-thread work and 444 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.
2,461 HTML elements
The page has 2,461 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 140 ms
140 msShopify costs a phone 140 ms of main-thread work and 540 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
150 ms · 50 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 50 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 49 KiB49 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 124 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
44 KiBAbout 44 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.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 387 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 387 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (162), other files 1.0 MB (180) and fonts 155 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.02 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.02 g of CO₂e: 122.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores 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.
Meta description is short (26 characters)
Your meta description is only 26 characters: “Homepage - 260 Sample Sale”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
6 links with vague text
6 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
148 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 148 pages on 260samplesale.com and 12 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Fortune favors the savvy”.
Title: 65 characters
Your title is a healthy 65 characters: “260 Sample Sale Online - The place to Shop Discount Luxury Brands”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://260samplesale.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://260samplesale.com/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.
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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
/policies/contact-information and /pages/locations-new have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
5 pages without an H1
/pages/about-us, /pages/locations-new, /collections/clae, /collections/gilt and /collections/cosabella have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 54 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages 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.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
12 small tap targets
12 of 24 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
Deprecated browser APIs
The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
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 (260samplesale.com).
Valid certificate (80 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for 260samplesale.com and is valid for another 80 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://260samplesale.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 46 links work
All 46 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
260samplesale.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
260samplesale.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 16 years old
16 years260samplesale.com was registered in Dec 2009 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Dec 2027
260samplesale.com is registered until Dec 2027.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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 phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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 opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Sign Up for Free” and “Shop Now”.
15 calls to action
The homepage has 15 calls to action, for example “Sign Up for Free”, “Sign up for Free” and “Shop Now”.
48 short forms
48 short forms (5 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be 260samplesale.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager and Reddit Pixel (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Osano) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
31 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 31 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
