Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 224 KiBAbout 224 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 44 KiBAbout 44 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (audioeye.com, octaneai.com and Shopify and others), adding 485 KiB and 301 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
200 ms · 146 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (146 KiB).
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 107 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
50 ms · 31 KiB4 images could be 31 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 790 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 10.0 s
10.0 sYour largest element takes 10.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 10.1 s
10.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 5.4 s
5.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s
2.1 sThe first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+1%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 104 ms to 103 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.50 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.50 g of CO₂e: 60.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.8 MB in 188 requests
1.8 MBYour homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 188 requests on a phone: other files 813 KiB (109), scripts 715 KiB (53) and images 125 KiB (16). That is a lean page.
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
Invalid ARIA attributes
5 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
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 (31 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 31 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails 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.
4 links without text
4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
37 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 37 passed and 10 failed. 1 more 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.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: potentialAction.target is not an absolute URL ("/search?q={search_term_string}")”.
10 internal links, 36 external
The homepage links to 10 pages on babiesrusad.com and 36 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 128 characters
Your meta description is 128 characters: “Babies”R”Us is the leading resource for all your baby needs, strollers & travel systems, car seats, nursery furniture, …”.
Title: 44 characters
Your title is a healthy 44 characters: “BabiesRUs.com, the official Babies”R”Us Site”.
Canonical URL set

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.babiesrus.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete 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
/policies/privacy-policy and /policies/terms-of-service have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
/pages/help has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/pages/help 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.
6 internal pages checked

Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
2 links through redirect chains
2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.babiesrus.com/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en®ion_country=US.
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.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (babiesrus.com).
Valid certificate (65 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WR1 verifies for babiesrusad.com and is valid for another 65 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://babiesrusad.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 28 links work
All 28 links checked from your homepage (8 internal, 20 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
babiesrus.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 30 years old
30 yearsbabiesrus.com was registered in Dec 1995 through MarkMonitor Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only pki.goog, ssl.com, digicert.com and globalsign.com to issue certificates for babiesrus.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Dec 2027
babiesrus.com is registered until Dec 2027.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
Only about 142 words
The homepage has only about 142 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Shop Babies"R"Us® at Kohl's”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Shop Babies"R"Us® at Kohl's”, “Sign Up For Emails From Kohl's” and “Contact”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
babiesrusad.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.
No SPF record
babiesrusad.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Domain receives no email
babiesrusad.com has no MX record, so it receives no email. SPF -all and DMARC reject still matter: they stop others sending mail as you.
Email authentication score: 0/100
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.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
10 cookies set on arrival
10Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies (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.
13 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 3 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.
