8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and joy.so and others), adding 2.4 MB and 767 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 64
64/100Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
913 KiB7 images could be 913 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Minify CSS
660 ms · 108 KiB108 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Shopify adds 396 ms
396 msShopify costs a phone 396 ms of main-thread work and 941 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.
Main-thread work: 3.8 s
A phone's processor spends 3.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Klaviyo adds 177 ms
177 msKlaviyo costs a phone 177 ms of main-thread work and 318 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.
cloudfront.net adds 2 ms
2 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 2 ms of main-thread work and 815 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
220 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (220 KiB).
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 99 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
40 ms · 2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
32 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 32 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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.8 s
7.8 sYour largest element takes 7.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “GET COMFORTABLE FEELING BEAUTIFUL”.
Time to Interactive: 17.6 s
17.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.0 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.
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.

Total Blocking Time: 113 ms
113 msScripts block the page for only 113 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.021

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.1 MB in 238 requests
4.1 MBYour homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 238 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (115), images 1.4 MB (16) and other files 883 KiB (84). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
b34f1344-0bf1-4dae-9326-db82a3aa8bc4.jpeg weighs 707 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
4 images far larger than shown
880 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example b34f1344-0bf1-4dae-9326-db82a3aa8bc4.jpeg at 1,601 px wide, shown at 185 px. Resized copies would save about 880 KiB.
4 images in older formats
4 images (945 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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.17 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.17 g of CO₂e: 140.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
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.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

Every image has alt text
All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (88 characters)
Your title is 88 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Comfort and Support: Find Your Perfect Nursing Bra | Blush and Bashful – Blush + Bashful”.
Meta description is long (273 characters)
Your meta description is 273 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.
57 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 57 pages on blushandbashful.com and 10 external pages.

AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
No llms.txt
There is no https://blushandbashful.com/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 (303 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
https://blushandbashful.com/collections/bras has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 8 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.
Only about 193 words
The homepage has only about 193 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
3 checks passed
