Speed

2 to fix99

  • Render-blocking requests

    450 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 53 KiB

    About 53 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 93 KiB

    5 images could be 93 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    16 KiB

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

  • 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.

3 checks passed

  • Mobile performance score: 99

    99/100

    Your mobile performance score is 99. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 75 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

98

  • 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.

6 checks passed

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.3 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The page is fully interactive after 2.3 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.005

    0.005

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.005, 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: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100

  • About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.12 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.12 g of CO₂e: 13.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed

  • Page weight: 419 KiB in 30 requests

    419 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 419 KiB in 30 requests on a phone: images 161 KiB (8), scripts 127 KiB (10) and fonts 110 KiB (7). That is a lean page.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 10099

  • 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.

2 checks passed

  • Every image has alt text

    All 8 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 36 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 37 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

Google 100100

  • 28 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 28 pages on adelashotsauce.com and 0 external pages.

8 checks passed

  • Meta description: 145 characters

    Your meta description is 145 characters: “Heritage hot sauce from Jalisco, Mexico. Flavor first, heat second — árbol and mirasol chiles, no water, no filler. Fre…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Flavor First.Heat Second.”.

  • Title: 58 characters

    Your title is a healthy 58 characters: “Adela’s Hot Sauce — Authentic Mexican Hot Sauce Since 1975”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://adelashotsauce.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://adelashotsauce.com/sitemap.xml.

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: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (246 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100

  • 2 pages with very little text

    /shop and /contact 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.

  • 10 internal pages checked

    We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed

  • Linked pages load

    All 10 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed

  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    11 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100

  • 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.

8 checks passed

  • Served over HTTPS

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

  • Valid certificate (189 days left)

    The certificate from Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M01 verifies for adelashotsauce.com and is valid for another 189 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.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://adelashotsauce.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 15 links work

    All 15 links checked from your homepage (15 internal, 0 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    adelashotsauce.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

    adelashotsauce.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 1 year old

    1 year

    adelashotsauce.com was registered in Oct 2025 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    adelashotsauce.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

4 to fix71

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

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

  • 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 239 words

    The homepage has only about 239 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.

3 checks passed

  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP THE SAUCE”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Contact Us” and “Shop the Sauce”.

  • 2 short forms

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

Email authentication

2 to fix60

  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be adelashotsauce.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: 60/100

    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 in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.privateemail.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

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).
