Speed

4 to fix73
  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    50 ms · 312 KiB

    8 images could be 312 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • Main-thread work: 2.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 549 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (omnisnippet1.com, Shopify and shop.app and others), adding 198 KiB and 95 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    100 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (100 KiB).

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 77 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    67 KiB

    About 67 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix70
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.3 s

    6.3 s

    Your largest element takes 6.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 6.4 s

    6.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 14 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    BFS_To_Merge_With_AmBari_Nutrition_3_533x.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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.54 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.54 g of CO₂e: 64.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.9 MB in 195 requests

    1.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 195 requests on a phone: other files 797 KiB (97), images 632 KiB (11) and scripts 358 KiB (56). That is a lean page.

  • 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

8 to fixGoogle 8489
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 1 button without a name

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

  • 24 text elements with low contrast

    24 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (13 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 13 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.

  • 6 links without text

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

  • 2 form fields without a label

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

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 14 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 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

2 to fixGoogle 10086
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("https:files/AB187-BFS-Logo.png")”.

  • 70 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 70 pages on bariatricfoodsource.com and 7 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “Shop Online at the #1 recommended Bariatric Foods Store. The lowest prices online guaranteed on all the top bariatric p…”.

  • Title: 57 characters

    Your title is a healthy 57 characters: “Bariatric Food Source | Top Bariatric Food Brands On Sale”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.bariatricfoodsource.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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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: 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 (559 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

5 to fix74
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/all is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a title

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/bariatric-shakes-drinks and https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/bariatric-protein-shakes-smoothies all use the title “Best Bariatric Protein Shakes & Drinks | High-Protein & Low-Sugar – A…”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/all has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/bariatric-shakes-drinks and https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/bariatric-protein-shakes-smoothies use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections/all, https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections, https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/pages/dietary-concern-for-bariatric-patients and https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/blogs/bariatric-guide-homepage have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages with very little text

    https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/collections and https://www.bariatricfoodsource.com/pages/dietary-concern-for-bariatric-patients have 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.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 42 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 15 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix78
  • No call to action on the first screen

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

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • About 518 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 518 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Shop AmBari Now” and “Contact Us”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 1 email link.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, 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

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 12 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 12 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at bariatricfoodsource.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.
