Speed

10 to fix76
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Main-thread work: 5.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4,073 HTML elements

    The page has 4,073 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 76

    76/100

    Your mobile performance score is 76. 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 (Klaviyo, Shopify and Hotjar and others), adding 1.4 MB and 678 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 105 KiB

    About 105 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    471 KiB

    About 471 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Klaviyo adds 333 ms

    333 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 333 ms of main-thread work and 728 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    286 KiB

    11 images could be 286 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Shopify adds 173 ms

    173 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 173 ms of main-thread work and 346 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.

  • 11 long tasks on the main thread

    11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 156 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    91 KiB

    13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (91 KiB).

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    20 ms · 5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 25 ms

    25 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 25 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix75
  • Time to Interactive: 17.7 s

    17.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 17.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    Your largest element takes 4.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “OUT OF OFFICE”.

  • Speed Index: 5.5 s

    5.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 220 ms

    220 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 220 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +5%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.6 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 13.0 MB in 346 requests

    13.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 13.0 MB in 346 requests on a phone: media 8.4 MB (3), images 1.9 MB (106) and scripts 1.6 MB (127). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    boom-basics-home-mobile-2jpg.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.69 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.69 g of CO₂e: 442.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9595
  • 21 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 29 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 51 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 5 failed. 6 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10082
  • Title is short (29 characters)

    Your title is only 29 characters: “Boom Shankar Fashion Clothing”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • No social preview image

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

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://boomshankar.com.au/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • 196 internal links, 16 external

    The homepage links to 196 pages on boomshankar.com and 16 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Meta description: 156 characters

    Your meta description is 156 characters: “Boom Shankar quality clothing, fashion from Sunshine Coast and Katie Cameron. Fun and colourful women's fashion that fl…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Boom Shankar”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.boomshankar.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

AI search readiness

2 to fix63
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    13%

    A phone browser shows 477 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 61. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.

  • 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.

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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.boomshankar.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/ss25-sale-usa, https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/sale-us and https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/out-of-office-usa have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 pages without an H1

    https://www.boomshankar.com/pages/boom-shankar-shipping-policy-2025, https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/boom-shankar-x-lorna-murray-shop-all-the-stripes, https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/ss25-sale-usa, https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/sale-us, https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/best-sellers-us and https://www.boomshankar.com/collections/out-of-office-usa and 9 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 76 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 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.

  • 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 9687
  • 33 small tap targets

    33 of 115 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • 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 477 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 477 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SIGN UP: 20% OFF! - New Customers Only!” and “SHOP NOW”.

  • 33 calls to action

    The homepage has 33 calls to action, for example “SIGN UP: 20% OFF! - New Customers Only!”, “SHOP” and “SHOP BY CATEGORY”.

  • 4 short forms

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Hotjar.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 1 more (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.

  • 19 cookies set on arrival

    19

    Opening the homepage sets 19 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.

  • 43 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 43 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at boomshankar.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
