blackgoldelixir.com.au website review

About 453 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.

9 images could be 171 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (gemcommerce.com, Shopify and Klaviyo and others), adding 2.6 MB and 500 ms of main-thread time.

A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Shopify costs a phone 104 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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.

The page has 1,602 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

About 59 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 240 ms faster on a phone.

12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (206 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 56 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

27 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 150 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

11 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

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.

Your largest element takes 14.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 16.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 10.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 228 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

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

How_to_GIF-min_1.webp weighs 5.1 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

Your homepage downloads 4.5 MB in 244 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (38), scripts 1.2 MB (86) and other files 914 KiB (95). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 1-thumbnail-hd.png at 2,213 px wide, shown at 293 px. Resized copies would save about 729 KiB.

12 images further down the page (6.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

1 image (5.1 MB) is 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.29 g of CO₂e: 154.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 26 characters: “Blackgold Elixir Australia”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

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

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

The homepage links to 50 pages on blackgoldelixir.com.au and 11 external pages.

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.

https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/products/organic-mushroom-elixir-extract, https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/collections/accessories, https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/learn-1, https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/referral, https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/faqs and https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/reviews and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/referral, https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/faqs and https://blackgoldelixir.com.au/pages/reviews have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 of 14 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

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 analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 875 words of visible text.

The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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.

Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 40 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
