Speed

11 to fix48
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.9 s

    15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 48

    48/100

    Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (dotdigital-pages.com, YouTube and Bigcommerce and others), adding 3.4 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    850 ms · 962 KiB

    19 images could be 962 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 850 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 919 KiB

    About 919 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • YouTube adds 585 ms

    585 ms

    YouTube costs a phone 585 ms of main-thread work and 1,006 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.

  • dotdigital-pages.com adds 590 ms

    590 ms

    dotdigital-pages.com costs a phone 590 ms of main-thread work and 257 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 164 KiB

    About 164 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 395 KiB

    16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (395 KiB).

  • Bigcommerce adds 297 ms

    297 ms

    Bigcommerce costs a phone 297 ms of main-thread work and 1.8 MB 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.

  • 13 long tasks on the main thread

    13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 245 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    61 KiB

    61 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    24 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 24 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.

  • 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: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix50
  • Time to Interactive: 18.6 s

    18.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 10.4 s

    10.4 s

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

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.9 s

    5.9 s

    Your largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Spooktacular Fireworks Sale - Free fireworks with every pur…”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 625 ms

    625 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 625 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 18 images without width and height

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

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.104

    0.104

    The layout shifts by 0.104 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -4%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.6 s to 1.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Tap response (INP) got 12% faster for real visitors

    -12%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 97 ms to 79 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

4 to fix67
  • Page weight: 3.8 MB in 137 requests

    3.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 137 requests on a phone: scripts 1.9 MB (82), images 1.3 MB (21) and fonts 368 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Wholesale_Case_Pricing_Banner.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (383 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    43 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example spirit-of-76-500-gram-cakes-blog-6-.png at 1,440 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 43 KiB.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (116 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.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.09 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.09 g of CO₂e: 130.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 10094
  • 1 tap target too small

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

  • 7 images without alt text

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

  • 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.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 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 (h1 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 3 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 8380
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “Spirit of '76 Fireworks Retail Stores”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (303 characters)

    Your meta description is 303 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 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 XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://76fireworkstore.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 8 links with vague text

    8 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 135 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 135 pages on 76fireworkstore.com and 7 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Title: 50 characters

    Your title is a healthy 50 characters: “Spirit of '76 Fireworks Store - Columbia, Missouri”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://76fireworkstore.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization, Store and WebSite.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

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: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (751 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 14 pages without a meta description

    /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/artillery-shells, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/bottle-rockets, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/missiles, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/multishots-200-grams and /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/multishots-350-grams and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 pages without an H1

    /wholesale-fireworks, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/artillery-shells, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/bottle-rockets, /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/missiles and /wholesale-pricing/aerial-fireworks/multishots-200-grams and 9 others 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 104 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

3 to fixGoogle 7776
  • 7 broken images

    7 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://76fireworkstore.com/.

  • 20 small tap targets

    20 of 53 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 11 third-party cookies

    11 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix93
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 0 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.

  • No security.txt

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

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (76fireworkstore.com).

  • Valid certificate (65 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for 76fireworkstore.com and is valid for another 65 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

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

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://76fireworkstore.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

    76fireworkstore.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

    76fireworkstore.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 8 years old

    8 years

    76fireworkstore.com was registered in Jun 2018 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Jun 2027

    76fireworkstore.com is registered until Jun 2027.

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.

  • 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 opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • 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 552 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 552 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Buy One Get One Free”, “How to Order Wholesale Cases” and “Join Our Team”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

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

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Email authentication

2 to fix40
  • No DMARC policy

    76fireworkstore.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: 40/100

    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 with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com -all”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

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

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies, 3 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.

  • 18 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

  • It loads jQuery 2.1.1, older than 3.5 (which fixed known security holes).
