Speed

3 to fix94
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    550 ms · 379 KiB

    6 images could be 379 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 550 ms faster on a phone.

  • Bigcommerce adds 128 ms

    128 ms

    Bigcommerce costs a phone 128 ms of main-thread work and 775 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.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Bigcommerce, azurefd.net and Google Fonts and others), adding 813 KiB and 130 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 29 KiB

    About 29 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    63 KiB

    About 63 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 52 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.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 94

    94/100

    Your mobile performance score is 94. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 143 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    Your largest element takes 3.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 79 ms to 77 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.5 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

11 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors wait 1.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 75 ms

    75 ms

  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 705 ms

    705 ms

    Real visitors wait 705 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    The page is fully interactive after 3.7 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Speed Index: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.6 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 1 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    1911DW_GOVT_BLK02_EDIT.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).

  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.24 g of CO₂e: 28.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 858 KiB in 46 requests

    858 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 858 KiB in 46 requests on a phone: images 601 KiB (28), scripts 151 KiB (9) and stylesheets 35 KiB (2). That is a lean page.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 9094
  • 22 tap targets too small

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

  • 3 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 11 links without text

    11 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (4 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 24 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 10079
  • 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 long (166 characters)

    Your meta description is 166 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://www.abprototype.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 199 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 199 pages on abprototype.com and 4 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Title: 64 characters

    Your title is a healthy 64 characters: “AB Prototype, LLC. - Friendly Gun Dealer, Custom Shop, Gun Parts”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.abprototype.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

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

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 13 pages without a meta description

    /categories/firearms/handguns.html, /categories/firearms/handguns/custom-builds.html, /categories/firearms/handguns/1911-2011.html, /categories/firearms/handguns/ar-15-pistol.html, /categories/firearms/handguns/ca-firearms.html and /categories/firearms/handguns/cz-usa.html and 7 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 135 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 96100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    42 of 49 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix92
  • No Content-Security-Policy

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

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (abprototype.com).

  • Valid certificate (52 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for abprototype.com and is valid for another 52 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://abprototype.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 42 links work

    All 42 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

1 to fix
  • Domain expires in 31 days

    abprototype.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

  • No CAA record

    abprototype.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

    abprototype.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.

1 checks passed
  • Domain is 10 years old

    10 years

    abprototype.com was registered in Dec 2015 through Squarespace Domains II LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

Content and conversion

2 to fix70
  • 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 analytics detected

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

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 498 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 498 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW” and “START YOUR BUILD!”.

  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Register”, “Shop All” and “SHOP NOW”.

  • 3 short forms

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

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be abprototype.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 +a +mx include:_spf.bigcommerce.com include:_spf.google.com include:mailgun.org ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 10 cookies set on arrival

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
