Speed

10 to fix43
  • Improve image delivery

    2.8 s · 2.9 MB

    8 images could be 2.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.8 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.7 s · 551 KiB

    About 551 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.4 s · 434 KiB

    21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (434 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and TikTok and others), adding 1.2 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 116 KiB

    About 116 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 571 ms

    571 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 571 ms of main-thread work and 673 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.

  • 2,748 HTML elements

    The page has 2,748 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 19 long tasks on the main thread

    19 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 184 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    51 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 51 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 21.7 s

    21.7 s

    Your largest element takes 21.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Great Festive Sale - Flat 50% Off”.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.8 s

    21.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 11.2 s

    11.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 879 ms

    879 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 879 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • 20 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 239 ms to 242 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +5%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.4 s to 2.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 180 ms

    180 ms

    Real visitors wait 180 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.03

    0.03

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.03 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 794 ms

    794 ms

    Real visitors wait 794 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.025

    0.025

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.025, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix14
  • Page weight: 5.8 MB in 139 requests

    5.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.8 MB in 139 requests on a phone: images 3.7 MB (28), scripts 1.5 MB (46) and fonts 426 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 1.3 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 7 images far larger than shown

    1.3 MB

    7 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example INTL-MOBBANNER99.jpg at 1,600 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 1.3 MB.

  • 14 images in older formats

    14 images (2.8 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    INTL-MOBBANNER99.jpg 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 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.66 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.66 g of CO₂e: 198.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 8991
  • Links look like plain text

    12 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.

  • 1 image without alt text

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

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

1 checks passed
  • 29 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 31 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 29 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9280
  • No H1 headline

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

  • 40 links crawlers can't follow

    40 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • Meta description is long (201 characters)

    Your meta description is 201 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 169 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 169 pages on biba.in and 5 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 62 characters

    Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “Ethnic Wear - Shop Online Indian Ethnic Wear for Women & Girls”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.biba.in/us.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • 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.biba.in/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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: 5 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,385 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix81
  • 2 pages share a title

    /us/new-arrival and /intl/new-arrival all use the title “Buy AW'26 Ethnic wear AW'26 for Women at Biba Global”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    /us/new-arrival and /intl/new-arrival 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 /intl/new-arrival, whose canonical is /us/new-arrival. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /us/wishlist has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages slow to respond

    /us/new-arrival/suit-sets and /us/new-arrival/kurtas-and-tops took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 121 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 7376
  • 3 broken images

    3 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=25032494&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=accea00e-8ade-4512-a493-ebacb1fed954&bo=1&sid=6078e000d73311f192fef1dc0f0863bc&vid=607915f0d73311f1b3aa1f842cadb290&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=91.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'init')”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    90 of 111 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix94
  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://biba.in goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • 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.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (biba.in).

  • Valid certificate (124 days left)

    The certificate from GoDaddy.com · GoDaddy TLS Intermediate CA DV - R1v1 verifies for biba.in and is valid for another 124 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://biba.in redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    biba.in 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

    biba.in'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 12 years old

    12 years

    biba.in was registered in May 2014 through Name.com, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until May 2027

    biba.in is registered until May 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 customer or partner logo. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 1,879 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,879 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Sign Up / Login to your account”.

  • 19 calls to action

    The homepage has 19 calls to action, for example “Shop All”, “Track Order” 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, Microsoft Clarity and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Email authentication

2 to fix65
  • SPF does not block other senders (no all)

    Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=_spf.rediffmailpro.com”.

  • 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.

  • Email authentication score: 65/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, Microsoft Ads and Microsoft Clarity and 1 more (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.

  • 24 cookies set on arrival

    24

    Opening the homepage sets 24 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.

  • 35 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 35 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Upkeep, stack and company

  • It loads jQuery 3.3.1, older than 3.5 (which fixed known security holes).
