Render-blocking requests
1.5 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 1,005 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1,005 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, rebuyengine.com and rechargecdn.com and others), adding 2.4 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 966 KiBAbout 966 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.
Mobile performance score: 70
70/100Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
573 KiB3 images could be 573 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
440 ms · 79 KiBAbout 79 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 440 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.6 s
A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 261 ms
261 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 261 ms of main-thread work and 344 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.
Attentive adds 103 ms
103 msAttentive costs a phone 103 ms of main-thread work and 835 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.

157 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 157 ms of main-thread work and 298 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.
rechargecdn.com adds 152 ms
152 msrechargecdn.com costs a phone 152 ms of main-thread work and 296 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.
Shopify adds 104 ms
104 msShopify costs a phone 104 ms of main-thread work and 360 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.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 219 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
44 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 44 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.

Not enough real-visitor data yet
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.5 MB in 323 requests
7.5 MBYour homepage downloads 7.5 MB in 323 requests on a phone: media 3.2 MB (1), scripts 2.3 MB (169) and other files 830 KiB (103). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit
2.11 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.11 g of CO₂e: 253.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

17 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 18 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 17 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (69 characters)
Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Back To Earth Skin - 100% Natural Skincare Routine. Results After One”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
65 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 65 pages on backtoearthskin.com and 7 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 151 characters
Your meta description is 151 characters: “Discover The Art of Skin, crafted routines to deliver results in one application. 100% Natural. Toxins-Free. Vegan. Cru…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Back To Earth Skin”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://backtoearthskin.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://backtoearthskin.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.
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 (450 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://backtoearthskin.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://backtoearthskin.com/collections/shop-all and https://backtoearthskin.com/collections/the-art-of-skin have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
3 pages without an H1
https://backtoearthskin.com/collections/shop-all, https://backtoearthskin.com/collections/the-art-of-skin and https://backtoearthskin.com/collections/cleansers have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

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 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 239 words
The homepage has only about 239 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No risk reducer

4 checks passed
