Speed

10 to fix80
  • Main-thread work: 4.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Mobile performance score: 80

    80/100

    Your mobile performance score is 80. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, cloudfront.net and Clarity and others), adding 1.4 MB and 699 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    429 KiB

    18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (429 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    401 KiB

    About 401 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 87 KiB

    About 87 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 282 ms

    282 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 282 ms of main-thread work and 828 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.

  • 2,200 HTML elements

    The page has 2,200 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • cloudfront.net adds 138 ms

    138 ms

    cloudfront.net costs a phone 138 ms of main-thread work and 299 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.

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 166 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills 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.

  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85

  • 2 images in older formats

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (21 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.08 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.08 g of CO₂e: 129.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 9293
  • 5 buttons without a name

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    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: 49 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10080
  • Title is long (70 characters)

    Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Baby Carriers & Baby Wraps | Boba | Ergonomic Baby Wearing – Boba Inc.”.

    Your meta description is 207 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

1 to fix88
