beaverdust.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 208 KiBAbout 208 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Judge.me, smile.io and Shopify and others), adding 503 KiB and 243 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 44 KiBAbout 44 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Improve image delivery
149 KiB4 images could be 149 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 103 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
17 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 17 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
14 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (14 KiB).
Minify CSS
8 KiB8 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.

Main-thread work: 1.4 s
A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 619 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.9 s
7.9 sYour largest element takes 7.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 7.9 s
7.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 5.7 s
5.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s
2.7 sThe first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
16 images without width and height
16 images 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
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 53 ms
53 msScripts block the page for only 53 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.53 g of CO₂e: 63.3 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: 1.9 MB in 173 requests
1.9 MBYour homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 173 requests on a phone: other files 763 KiB (92), scripts 572 KiB (58) and fonts 238 KiB (8). 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
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (75 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 75 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
8 form fields without a label
8 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (14 characters)
Your title is only 14 characters: “beaverdust.com”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
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 ("/en-us/search?q={search_term_string}")”.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
32 internal links, 2 external
The homepage links to 32 pages on beaverdust.com and 2 external pages.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://beaverdust.com/en-us.

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: 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 (655 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
4 pages without a meta description
/en-us/collections/all, /en-us/pages/reviews, /en-us/blogs/pigment-recipes and /en-us/collections/variety-packs have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
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 (beaverdust.com).
Valid certificate (52 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WR1 verifies for beaverdust.com and is valid for another 52 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://beaverdust.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 27 links work
All 27 links checked from your homepage (25 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
beaverdust.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
beaverdust.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.
2 checks passed
Domain is 5 years old
5 yearsbeaverdust.com was registered in Mar 2021 through Bluehost Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Mar 2027
beaverdust.com is registered until Mar 2027.
Content and conversion
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.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 123 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
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.
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 616 words of copy
The homepage carries about 616 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Sign Up”.
4 calls to action

7 short forms
7 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be beaverdust.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 a mx include:websitewelcome.com ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “default”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
7 cookies set on arrival

1 checks passed
