Speed

10 to fix52
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    6.2 s · 1.1 MB

    18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    4.7 s · 944 KiB

    About 944 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    2.1 s · 485 KiB

    485 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (route.com, Clarity and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.5 MB and 968 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 52

    52/100

    Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    900 ms · 89 KiB

    About 89 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • route.com adds 632 ms

    632 ms

    route.com costs a phone 632 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    500 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 382 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 16 KiB

    1 image could be 16 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix51
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.3 s

    18.3 s

    Your largest element takes 18.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Introducing Eau d'Italie Acqua di Positano Candle. Escape t…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 20.8 s

    20.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 20.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.7 s

    7.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 560 ms

    560 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 560 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix75
  • Page weight: 3.3 MB in 230 requests

    3.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 230 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (59), other files 880 KiB (143) and images 301 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    88 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example EDI_liquidsoap_lotion_oct2023_2000px.jpg at 2,000 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 88 KiB.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.93 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.93 g of CO₂e: 112.1 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 load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9695
  • 3 tap targets too small

    3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10075
  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is short (29 characters)

    Your title is only 29 characters: “Beauty Frontier Official Site”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is long (179 characters)

    Your meta description is 179 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 70 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 70 pages on beautyfrontier.com and 4 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://beautyfrontier.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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://beautyfrontier.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: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (466 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

5 to fix76
  • 2 pages share a title

    https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances and https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances all use the title “ALTAIA – Beauty Frontier”. 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://beautyfrontier.com/collections/ligne-st-barth has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances and https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/fragrances, whose canonical is https://beautyfrontier.com/collections/altaia-fragrances. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://beautyfrontier.com/pages/altaia and https://beautyfrontier.com/pages/eau-d-italie have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 31 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.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 92100
  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    15 of 17 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix58
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • About 323 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 323 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “SHOP NOW”, “Join” and “GDPR Change / Delete Request”.

  • 11 short forms

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Microsoft Clarity.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amplitude, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 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.

  • 28 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 28 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 beautyfrontier.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 4 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
