branwyn.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
2,295 HTML elements
The page has 2,295 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 2 ms
2 msShopify costs a phone 2 ms of main-thread work and 339 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
242 KiB12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (242 KiB).
Improve image delivery
69 KiB7 images could be 69 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Amazon Web Services, Shopify and jQuery CDN and others), adding 422 KiB and 16 ms of main-thread time.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
42 KiBAbout 42 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify CSS
13 KiB13 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.

Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
BRANWYN_PERFORMANCE_INNERWEAR_XL_BUSTY_BRA_HIPSTER_WARM_NUDE 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 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.56 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.56 g of CO₂e: 67.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 2.0 MB in 89 requests
2.0 MBYour homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 89 requests on a phone: images 897 KiB (34), scripts 847 KiB (44) and fonts 110 KiB (4). That is a lean page.
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
5 tap targets too small
5 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
