Speed

11 to fix55
  • Improve image delivery

    1.9 s · 389 KiB

    8 images could be 389 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 7.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 7.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s 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 (negate.io, Shopify and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    550 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

  • negate.io adds 522 ms

    522 ms

    negate.io costs a phone 522 ms of main-thread work and 40 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.

  • Shopify adds 406 ms

    406 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 406 ms of main-thread work and 862 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 89 KiB

    About 89 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    258 KiB

    About 258 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 2,371 HTML elements

    The page has 2,371 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Klaviyo adds 193 ms

    193 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 193 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 150 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    27 KiB

    27 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    25 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 25 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    12 KiB

    6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (12 KiB).

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Server response: 12 ms

    12 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 12 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.1 s

    13.1 s

    Your largest element takes 13.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 22.2 s

    22.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 22.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.3 s

    13.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 343 ms

    343 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 343 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 86 ms to 80 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

8 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: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 87 ms

    87 ms

    Real visitors wait 87 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 573 ms

    573 ms

    Real visitors wait 573 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 18% faster for real visitors

    -18%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.1 s to 0.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

4 to fix52
  • Page weight: 5.1 MB in 422 requests

    5.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 422 requests on a phone: images 2.3 MB (54), scripts 1.3 MB (165) and other files 1.1 MB (176). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Mobile_Menu_Promo_Photos.png 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 far larger than shown

    83 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example ynz1ust2deysyshgkpdc.webp at 349 px wide, shown at 86 px. Resized copies would save about 83 KiB.

  • 8 images below the first screen load straight away

    8 images further down the page (304 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (270 KiB) 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.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.43 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.43 g of CO₂e: 171.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

10 to fixGoogle 8488
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 27 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 48 links without text

    48 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).

1 checks passed
  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 10 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 9283
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is long (66 characters)

    Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Shop Maternity & Pregnancy Clothes Online – Carry Maternity Canada”.

  • 231 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 231 pages on carrymaternity.ca and 7 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “Canadian maternity clothing store. Shop the best brands like Ripe Maternity, Bae The Label, Embrace, our exclusive 'Mad…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://carrymaternity.ca/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

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 (934 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://carrymaternity.ca/pages/holiday-edit, https://carrymaternity.ca/pages/shop-by-brand and https://carrymaternity.ca/pages/size-guide have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 88 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 17 small tap targets

    17 of 56 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • 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.

  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 opening hours

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

  • 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.

  • About 452 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 452 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “SHOP NOW”, “Shop All” and “Shop”.

  • 5 short forms

    5 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 62 testimonial or review blocks, 5 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo (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.

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies (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.

  • 24 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 24 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 carrymaternity.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
