Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 187 KiBAbout 187 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.0 s · 289 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (289 KiB).
Improve image delivery
400 ms · 4.5 MB6 images could be 4.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 59
59/100Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Bigcommerce and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 5.2 MB and 449 ms of main-thread time.
Bigcommerce adds 140 ms
140 msBigcommerce costs a phone 140 ms of main-thread work and 4.7 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.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 246 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 31 KiBAbout 31 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.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
13 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 13 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.1 s
A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 486 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 17.3 s
17.3 sYour largest element takes 17.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 18.3 s
18.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.0 s
6.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s
2.3 sThe first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 331 ms
331 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 331 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
1 image without width and height
1 image 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.
1 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.3 MB in 40 requests
5.3 MBYour homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 40 requests on a phone: images 4.6 MB (10), scripts 604 KiB (14) and stylesheets 36 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
belly-brush-install_62__15816.jpg weighs 3.8 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
3 images far larger than shown
4.2 MB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example belly-brush-install_62__15816.jpg at 6,016 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 4.2 MB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (39 KiB) is 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 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.49 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.49 g of CO₂e: 179.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
10 tap targets too small
10 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
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 (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
10 links without text
10 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 9 failed. 2 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 (64 characters)
Your meta description is only 64 characters: “How you can give your horse belly itch relief anytime THEY want.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “ENRICH THEIR WORLD”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
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://abrae.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
29 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 29 pages on abrae.com and 0 external pages.
3 checks passed
Title: 52 characters
Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “Abrae LLC: Better Animal Mental Health with purpose!”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://abrae.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
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.
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.
1 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.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
/compare declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and /compare all use the title “Abrae LLC: Better Animal Mental Health with purpose!”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
9 pages without a meta description
/products, /gallery, /faq, /about-us, /shipping-returns and /contact-us and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
/compare and /giftcertificates.php use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
7 pages with very little text
/compare, /giftcertificates.php, /products, /contact-us, /sitemap.php and /abrae and 1 other have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

17 of 32 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 JavaScript error while loading
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 403 ()”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
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 (abrae.com).
Valid certificate (87 days left)
The certificate from DigiCert, Inc. · Encryption Everywhere G3 TLS ECC P384 SHA384 2023 CA1 verifies for abrae.com and is valid for another 87 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://abrae.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 18 links work
All 18 links checked from your homepage (18 internal, 0 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
abrae.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
abrae.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 21 years old
21 yearsabrae.com was registered in Jan 2005 through Register.com - Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Jan 2030
abrae.com is registered until Jan 2030.
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.
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 53 words
The homepage has only about 53 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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: “Contact Us”.
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Register” and “Contact Us”.
2 short forms
2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be abrae.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
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: 65/100
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 +a +mx include:_spf.bigcommerce.com -all”.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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.
16 cookies set on arrival
16Opening the homepage sets 16 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.
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
No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
