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
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.1 s · 542 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (542 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 125 KiBAbout 125 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
5,392 HTML elements
The page has 5,392 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
900 ms · 409 KiB12 images could be 409 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, Attentive and Shopify and others), adding 1.2 MB and 412 ms of main-thread time.
Minify JavaScript
450 ms · 61 KiB61 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Main-thread work: 2.7 s
A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Attentive adds 98 ms
98 msAttentive costs a phone 98 ms of main-thread work and 654 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.
Shopify adds 96 ms
96 msShopify costs a phone 96 ms of main-thread work and 446 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.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 62 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.9 MB in 304 requests
3.9 MBYour homepage downloads 3.9 MB in 304 requests on a phone: images 1.9 MB (31), other files 803 KiB (118) and scripts 752 KiB (103). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
93 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example qo6j5qluusrty8htjlx2.webp at 600 px wide, shown at 165 px. Resized copies would save about 93 KiB.
3 images in older formats
3 images (368 KiB) 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.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.09 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.09 g of CO₂e: 131.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 checks passed
17 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 18 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 17 passed and 1 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO

Your title is only 11 characters: “Blunt Cases”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
249 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 249 pages on bluntcases.com and 11 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 114 characters

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://bluntcases.com/sitemap.xml.
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 (2,465 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
1 page without a title
/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
4 pages without a meta description
/collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /policies/shipping-policy and /pages/ipad-macbook-laptop have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
14 pages without an H1
/collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/ipad-macbook-laptop, /collections/new-arrivals, /collections/best-selling-cases-blunt-cases and /collections/all-iphone-cases and 8 others 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 147 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
