Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.

One score from every part of this review. How it works

Live view · interaction off

Speed

10 to fix59
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.3 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Bigcommerce, Hotjar and xsellco.com and others), adding 6.7 MB and 791 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 1.0 MB

    6 images could be 1.0 MB 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59 (desktop: 72). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    820 ms · 119 KiB

    About 119 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 820 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    540 ms · 351 KiB

    About 351 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 540 ms faster on a phone.

  • Bigcommerce adds 265 ms

    265 ms

    Bigcommerce costs a phone 265 ms of main-thread work and 5.6 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 2,142 HTML elements

    The page has 2,142 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • userway.org adds 51 ms

    51 ms

    userway.org costs a phone 51 ms of main-thread work and 467 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 217 KiB

    29 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (217 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 40 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 40 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 186 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    8 KiB

    8 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: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 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.

  • Real-user LCP: 4.2 s

    4.2 s

    Real visitors wait 4.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 21.3 s

    21.3 s

    Your largest element takes 21.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Click Here to Shop the BlairTech HEX Gaming PC - Now Just $…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 24.3 s

    24.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 24.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 907 ms

    907 ms

    Real visitors wait 907 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 22 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 95 ms to 105 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.4 s to 2.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 106 ms

    106 ms

    Real visitors wait 106 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.08

    0.08

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.08 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 145 ms

    145 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 145 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix25
  • Page weight: 7.5 MB in 144 requests

    7.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.5 MB in 144 requests on a phone: images 5.2 MB (35), scripts 1.0 MB (39) and fonts 606 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 2.2 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    883 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example hex-oct-26.jpg at 3,000 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 883 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (2.4 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (125 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.13 g of CO₂e: 255.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 9092
  • 8 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Hidden but focusable

    3 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (55 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 55 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • 11 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h5, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 7 failed. 7 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 7773
  • Title is long (73 characters)

    Your title is 73 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Refurbished Desktop & Laptop PCs | Standard One Year Warranty | BlairTech”.

  • No structured data

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

  • Meta description is long (163 characters)

    Your meta description is 163 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.

  • 3 links crawlers can't follow

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

  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 160 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 160 pages on blairtech.com and 5 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • 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://blairtech.com/xmlsitemap.php.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,122 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 7 pages without a meta description

    /deals, /deals/featured-deals, /deals/small-business-deals, /desktops/bundles, /laptops/a-grade-laptops and /laptops/b-grade-laptops and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 68 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 9287
  • 12 small tap targets

    12 of 33 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “who is not defined”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

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

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix92
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 0 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.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (blairtech.com).

  • Valid certificate (37 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for blairtech.com and is valid for another 37 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://blairtech.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 45 links work

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

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    blairtech.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

    blairtech.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 14 years old

    14 years

    blairtech.com was registered in Oct 2012 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    blairtech.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • 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.

  • 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 1,142 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,142 words of visible text.

7 checks passed
  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Shop All Refurbished Desktops”, “Shop All Refurbished Laptops” and “Contact Us”.

  • 3 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks, 2 customer or partner logos, 2 trust badges and “Over 700,000 Customers”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar and HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

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

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

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

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be blairtech.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • 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:_spf.bigcommerce.com include:7690891.spf06.hubspotemail.net include:_spf.google.com ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Hotjar (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.

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 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.

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
