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
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 472 KiBAbout 472 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Main-thread work: 4.5 s
A phone's processor spends 4.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,642 HTML elements
The page has 3,642 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Yotpo and others), adding 2.1 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
900 ms · 262 KiB7 images could be 262 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.
Reduce unused CSS
900 ms · 235 KiBAbout 235 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 63
63/100Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
250 ms · 302 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (302 KiB).
Shopify adds 435 ms
435 msShopify costs a phone 435 ms of main-thread work and 939 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.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 74 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 74 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Klaviyo adds 256 ms
256 msKlaviyo costs a phone 256 ms of main-thread work and 512 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 JavaScript
150 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 134 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).
Duplicated JavaScript
10 KiB10 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 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.

Server response: 26 ms
26 msYour server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.05
0.05The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.05, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.3 MB in 311 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 311 requests on a phone: scripts 2.0 MB (152), other files 801 KiB (110) and images 617 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
GiftGuide-Homepage-Main-Mobile_400x.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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.21 g of CO₂e: 145.2 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
Invalid ARIA attributes
4 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
24 text elements with low contrast
24 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (49 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 49 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
10 links without text
10 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 40 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
3 links crawlers can't follow
3 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
183 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 183 pages on burley.com and 9 external pages.
8 checks passed

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://burley.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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (773 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.
1 page without a meta description
/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 pages without an H1
/collections/bike-attachment-for-kids, /collections/cargo, /collections/pet, /collections/more, /collections/sale and /pages/store-locator and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
5 pages with very little text
/collections/bike-attachment-for-kids, /collections/cargo, /collections/pet, /collections/more and /pages/store-locator have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.

7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected

20 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 20 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 burley.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 16 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
