Speed

12 to fix43
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Main-thread work: 11.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 11.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and gotolstoy.com and others), adding 1.6 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 482 KiB

    About 482 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 290 KiB

    15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (290 KiB).

  • Shopify adds 326 ms

    326 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 326 ms of main-thread work and 624 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

    300 ms · 49 KiB

    About 49 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Klaviyo adds 281 ms

    281 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 281 ms of main-thread work and 309 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.

  • gotolstoy.com adds 278 ms

    278 ms

    gotolstoy.com costs a phone 278 ms of main-thread work and 166 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 252 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 1,826 HTML elements

    The page has 1,826 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    40 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 40 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Improve image delivery

    31 KiB

    3 images could be 31 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    28 KiB

    28 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.02 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.02 g of CO₂e: 122.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.aleavia.com/collections/hair/Shampoo+Conditioner.

  • 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.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

  • Valid certificate (43 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WR1 verifies for aleavia.com and is valid for another 43 days.

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

  • Content-Security-Policy set

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://aleavia.com redirects to the secure version.

    All 44 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 4 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • DNSSEC is off

    aleavia.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 14 years old

    14 years

    aleavia.com was registered in Mar 2012 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

    aleavia.com is registered until Mar 2029.

Content and conversion

3 to fix75
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 10 testimonial or review blocks. 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.

  • 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 743 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 743 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 ALL-NEW HAIRCARE”.

    15 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

Email authentication

1 to fix75
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be aleavia.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • Email authentication score: 75/100

    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

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17
