Speed
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and reamaze.com and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 621 KiBAbout 621 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 541 ms
541 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 541 ms of main-thread work and 524 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
100 ms · 321 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (321 KiB).
Shopify adds 312 ms
312 msShopify costs a phone 312 ms of main-thread work and 693 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.
Main-thread work: 3.8 s
A phone's processor spends 3.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 52 KiBAbout 52 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.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 261 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
251 KiB9 images could be 251 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 8 KiB8 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Duplicated JavaScript
28 KiB28 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Legacy JavaScript
25 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 25 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 289 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 289 requests on a phone: scripts 2.0 MB (145), other files 816 KiB (89) and images 583 KiB (20). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Memento_Necklace_Banner-1.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 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.03 g of CO₂e: 123.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

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.
5 links without text

44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Organization data: 6 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (722 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
14 pages without a meta description
https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets, https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets/simple, https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets/multistrand, https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets/antique-brass, https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets/matte-brass and https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/bracelets/sterling-silver and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/earrings/Cluster, whose canonical is https://annevaughandesigns.com/collections/earrings/cluster. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page without an H1
https://annevaughandesigns.com/pages/anne-vaughan-designs-holiday-open-studio has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data

No phone number on the homepage

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.
