argentiametals.com website review

7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (147 KiB).

Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 152 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

8 images could be 242 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (commoninja.com, Shopify and YouTube and others), adding 266 KiB and 166 ms of main-thread time.

About 28 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.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 99 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Polyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 9.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The layout shifts by 0.5 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 4.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

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 image (64 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.

1 image further down the page (27 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.54 g of CO₂e: 64.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 26 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

Your title is only 24 characters: “Argentia Precious Metals”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

Your meta description is only 24 characters: “Argentia Precious Metals”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

Structured data found (WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: potentialAction.target is not an absolute URL ("https://www.argentiametals.com/search?q={search_term_string}")”.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 54 pages on argentiametals.com and 1 external page.

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.

https://www.argentiametals.com/collections/frontpage and https://www.argentiametals.com/collections/standard-bullion use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

https://www.argentiametals.com/pages/contact has 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.

We fetched 12 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 263 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
