Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
646 KiB10 images could be 646 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and 9gtb.com and others), adding 541 KiB and 220 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 87 KiBAbout 87 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 51 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (51 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
150 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 83 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.
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: 1.3 s

First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s

Tap response (INP) got 12% slower for real visitors
+12%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 136 ms to 156 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.2 MB in 175 requests
2.2 MBYour homepage downloads 2.2 MB in 175 requests on a phone: other files 754 KiB (86), images 752 KiB (12) and scripts 563 KiB (66). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.62 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.62 g of CO₂e: 74.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
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
12 tap targets too small
12 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.
<dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements (2 elements)
<dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 20 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 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 3 failed. 3 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.
14 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 14 pages on almave.com and 7 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 145 characters
Your meta description is 145 characters: “The first non-alcoholic blue agave spirit, distilled in Mexico. From Founder Lewis Hamilton and Master Distiller Iván …”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Your choice.Any occasion.”.
Title: 54 characters
Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “Non-Alcoholic Blue Agave Spirits from Jalisco | Almave”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.almave.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.almave.com/sitemap.xml.
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.
Opted out of AI training for 5 crawlers
robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.
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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (592 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.almave.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://www.almave.com/collections/all, https://www.almave.com/policies/privacy-policy and https://www.almave.com/policies/terms-of-service have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages without an H1
https://www.almave.com/pages/our-story and https://www.almave.com/pages/contact have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
7 internal pages checked
We fetched 7 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed

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.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. 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 472 words of copy
The homepage carries about 472 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 1 more (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.
20 cookies set on arrival
20Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies, 1 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.
37 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 37 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at almave.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
