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
3,070 HTML elements
The page has 3,070 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 135 KiBAbout 135 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 73
73/100Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Main-thread work: 2.1 s
A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 598 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and cdn-cookieyes.com and others), adding 517 KiB and 212 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 85 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
20 ms · 14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
21 KiB7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (21 KiB).
Improve image delivery
17 KiB2 images could be 17 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
12 KiBAbout 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.71 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.71 g of CO₂e: 85.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Links do not have a discernible name
Links do not have a discernible name (1 element).
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
Every image has alt text

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://by-crea.com/policies/privacy-policy, whose canonical is https://by-crea.com/en-us/policies/privacy-policy. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
