54celsius.com website review

About 302 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.

A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and 9gtb.com and others), adding 1.3 MB and 672 ms of main-thread time.

7 images could be 205 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

Shopify costs a phone 348 ms of main-thread work and 1,015 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.

The page has 1,963 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (58 KiB).

About 58 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 105 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 50 ms.

Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 10.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

Visually, the page fills in at 10.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 14.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

15 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 236 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 102 ms to 104 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 318 requests on a phone: scripts 1.0 MB (155), other files 937 KiB (124) and images 838 KiB (17). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

8 images (539 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.

7 images further down the page (270 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.89 g of CO₂e: 107.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

6 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

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.

Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Your meta description is 279 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

The homepage links to 205 pages on 54celsius.com and 4 external pages.

https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases/New-vases and https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases all use the title “Octaevo Paper Vases”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

https://54celsius.com/pages/54celsius, https://54celsius.com/pages/home-decor-collections, https://54celsius.com/pages/smells-like-spells-1, https://54celsius.com/pages/candlehand-1, https://54celsius.com/pages/octaevo-1 and https://54celsius.com/pages/candle-collections and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases/New-vases and https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases/New-vases, whose canonical is https://54celsius.com/collections/octaevo-paper-vases. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

https://54celsius.com/pages/54celsius, https://54celsius.com/pages/home-decor-collections, https://54celsius.com/pages/smells-like-spells-1, https://54celsius.com/pages/candlehand-1, https://54celsius.com/pages/octaevo-1 and https://54celsius.com/pages/candle-collections and 1 other have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 80 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

13 of 21 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 410 ()”.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,019 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel 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.

Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 35 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
