Speed

14 to fix40
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.0 s · 1.0 MB

    About 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 40

    40/100

    Your mobile performance score is 40. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 5,029 HTML elements

    The page has 5,029 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 (Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Yotpo and others), adding 3.0 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    700 ms · 291 KiB

    11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (291 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 777 ms

    777 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 777 ms of main-thread work and 814 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

    150 ms · 463 KiB

    12 images could be 463 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    440 ms · 79 KiB

    About 79 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 440 ms faster on a phone.

  • Klaviyo adds 353 ms

    353 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 353 ms of main-thread work and 667 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.

  • bc0a.com adds 185 ms

    185 ms

    bc0a.com costs a phone 185 ms of main-thread work and 676 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.

  • Yotpo adds 221 ms

    221 ms

    Yotpo costs a phone 221 ms of main-thread work and 321 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.

  • rebuyengine.com adds 215 ms

    215 ms

    rebuyengine.com costs a phone 215 ms of main-thread work and 366 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 242 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 36 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 36 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    140 ms · 5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 19.3 s

    19.3 s

    Your largest element takes 19.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 27.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 27.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.7 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 972 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 14 images without width and height

    14 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) got 13% slower for real visitors

    +13%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 129 ms to 140 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    0%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.7 s

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix69
  • Page weight: 5.0 MB in 335 requests

    5.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 335 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (118), images 1.2 MB (53) and other files 831 KiB (128). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    BLUEBIRDCOMPLETEOIL.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).

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (55 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.41 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.41 g of CO₂e: 169.3 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

3 to fixGoogle 8895
  • 25 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 16 images without alt text

    16 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 6 links without text

    6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 8590
  • Title is short (12 characters)

    Your title is only 12 characters: “Buy Bluebird”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 41 internal links, 76 external

    The homepage links to 41 pages on buybluebird.com and 76 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 137 characters

    Your meta description is 137 characters: “Bluebird Botanicals (est. 2012) is an award winning Hemp Extract company. Our hemp is grown and processed in the great …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “<img src="//buybluebird.com/cdn/shop/files/BB-Logotype-Blue-CMYK_185x.png?v=1686679191" srcset="//buybluebird.com/cdn/s…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://buybluebird.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://buybluebird.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (5,654 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

3 to fix67
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://buybluebird.com/products/complete-hemp-oil-redirect, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 2 pages share a title

    https://buybluebird.com/products/classic-hemp-oil-10mg-redirect and https://buybluebird.com/products/hemp-classic-5x-redirect all use the title “Classic CBD Oil | 10 mg & 25 mg CBD Tincture – Bluebird Botanicals”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://buybluebird.com/products/classic-hemp-oil-10mg-redirect and https://buybluebird.com/products/hemp-classic-5x-redirect use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    https://buybluebird.com/products/lift-blue-raspberry-gummies-redirect, https://buybluebird.com/products/concentrated-hemp-capsules-redirect and https://buybluebird.com/products/15mg-complete-hemp-oil-capsules-redirect took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    20 of 21 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix94
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

    The homepage carries about 5,543 words of visible text.

8 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Shop Now”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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.

  • 23 cookies set on arrival

    23

    Opening the homepage sets 23 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 41 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 41 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 buybluebird.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
