canadacomputers.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.

Speed

12 to fix52
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.1 s · 549 KiB

    About 549 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

  • 3,444 HTML elements

    The page has 3,444 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 729 KiB

    11 images could be 729 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 52

    52/100

    Your mobile performance score is 52. 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 (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1,006 KiB and 850 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    950 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    200 ms · 356 KiB

    16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (356 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 85 KiB

    About 85 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 444 ms

    444 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 444 ms of main-thread work and 565 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.

  • Facebook adds 232 ms

    232 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 232 ms of main-thread work and 317 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.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 251 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 KiB

    10 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 65 ms

    65 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 65 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

10 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 30.2 s

    30.2 s

    Your largest element takes 30.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Seagate 20261030”.

  • Time to Interactive: 32.2 s

    32.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 32.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.9 s

    7.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 21% slower for real visitors

    +21%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 110 ms to 135 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 362 ms

    362 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 362 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.142

    0.142

    The layout shifts by 0.142 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 20 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Real visitors wait 2.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 157 ms

    157 ms

    Real visitors wait 157 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.10

    0.10

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.10 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 16% faster for real visitors

    -16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.7 s to 3.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

4 to fix35
  • Page weight: 8.9 MB in 99 requests

    8.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.9 MB in 99 requests on a phone: images 7.0 MB (40), scripts 1.3 MB (22) and fonts 490 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images over 500 KB

    3 images weigh 1.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 18 images in older formats

    18 images (6.6 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    9 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example ee3fb6bb14b47d03e9eee7f2ea5b71df.jpg at 1,110 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 9 KiB.

  • About 2.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.53 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.53 g of CO₂e: 303.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9396
  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (1 element)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 11 form fields without a label

    11 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 310 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9284
  • Title is long (92 characters)

    Your title is 92 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Canada Computers & Electronics: Your one-stop computer shop - Canada Computers & Electron…”.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization, WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 565 internal links, 18 external

    The homepage links to 565 pages on canadacomputers.com and 18 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 121 characters

    Your meta description is 121 characters: “Shop Canada Computers for electronics, computers, gaming gear & more: fast shipping & in-store pickup on the latest tec…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Canada Computers”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.canadacomputers.com/en/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.canadacomputers.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,921 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix78
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /en/content/8/online-shopping-faq is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    /en/ccflyer has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /en/openbox, whose canonical is /en/2/root. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 7 pages without an H1

    /en/ccflyer, /en/bundle, /en/openbox, /en/clearance, /en/pc-configurator and /en/services and 1 other have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    /en/brands-list took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 129 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 7788
  • 20 small tap targets

    20 of 48 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 2 deprecated browser APIs that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 4 distorted images

    4 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix92
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • 2 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://canadacomputers.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “0; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (canadacomputers.com).

  • Valid certificate (72 days left)

    The certificate from DigiCert Inc · DigiCert Global G2 TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1 verifies for canadacomputers.com and is valid for another 72 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • All 47 links work

    All 47 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 7 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    canadacomputers.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    canadacomputers.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 29 years old

    29 years

    canadacomputers.com was registered in Nov 1996 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Nov 2034

    canadacomputers.com is registered until Nov 2034.

Content and conversion

4 to fix78
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • 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.

  • Only about 209 words

    The homepage has only about 209 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 34 calls to action

    The homepage has 34 calls to action, for example “Exclusions apply”, “Shop Products” and “Shop Brands”.

  • 4 short forms

    4 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks, 84 customer or partner logos and 8 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:20.220.16.21 ip4:207.35.85.76 ip4:207.35.85.73 ip4:52.237.16.107 ip4:52.237.20.40 ip4:52.237.13.77 mx mx:cc.…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “s1”, “s2” and “default”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

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, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 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.

  • 18 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
