Speed
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 180 KiBAbout 180 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 33 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (33 KiB).
Improve image delivery
499 KiB15 images could be 499 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Shopify adds 313 ms
313 msShopify costs a phone 313 ms of main-thread work and 698 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
330 ms · 47 KiBAbout 47 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 330 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.4 s
A phone's processor spends 3.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,349 HTML elements
The page has 2,349 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Bugsnag and Klaviyo and others), adding 784 KiB and 328 ms of main-thread time.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 183 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Duplicated JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 277 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 277 requests on a phone: other files 975 KiB (121), images 904 KiB (18) and scripts 761 KiB (97). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
2_c4099d86-6002-4da8-ae3b-d6552cdef89a.png 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 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.85 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 101.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
17 text elements with low contrast
17 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
3 images without alt text
3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (3 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
5 links with vague text
5 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
159 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 159 pages on arubaaloe.com and 4 external pages.
7 checks passed

AI search readiness
4 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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,144 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
/collections/end-of-season-sale and /pages/lookbook-factory-museum-tour have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /collections/best-sellers, whose canonical is /collections/explore-best-sellers. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
2 pages without an H1
/collections and /pages/lookbook-factory-museum-tour have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
