Speed

8 to fix59
  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Clarity and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 423 ms

    423 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 423 ms of main-thread work and 320 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 JavaScript

    374 KiB

    About 374 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Main-thread work: 3.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Klaviyo adds 298 ms

    298 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 298 ms of main-thread work and 423 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.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 272 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 228 KiB

    9 images could be 228 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    84 KiB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (84 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    47 KiB

    About 47 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 12 ms

    12 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix100
  • Time to Interactive: 15.5 s

    15.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Your largest element takes 5.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Search All Tag Recommendations For Your Cattle”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 797 ms

    797 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 797 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 17% slower for real visitors

    +17%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 104 ms to 123 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.0 s to 1.0 s 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: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors wait 1.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 146 ms

    146 ms

    Real visitors wait 146 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: 589 ms

    589 ms

    Real visitors wait 589 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002

    0.002

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

5 to fix36
  • Page weight: 10.6 MB in 263 requests

    10.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.6 MB in 263 requests on a phone: images 8.2 MB (68), scripts 1.5 MB (94) and other files 735 KiB (91). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images over 500 KB

    3 images weigh 6.4 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (5.8 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.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    E-Comm_Team_Photo_-_line.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).

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    119 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example GTXF-COLOR-SET22.jpg at 2,025 px wide, shown at 258 px. Resized copies would save about 119 KiB.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (190 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.02 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.02 g of CO₂e: 362.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 8390
  • 3 buttons without a name

    3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 9 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 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 (7 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

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

  • 3 form fields without a label

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

  • 3 links without text

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

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (10 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 50 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: 50 passed and 8 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 8582
  • Title is long (68 characters)

    Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Cattle Ear Tags | Custom Cattle Ear Tags | Cow Tags | CattleTags.com”.

  • Meta description is long (257 characters)

    Your meta description is 257 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("//www.cattletags.com/cdn/shop/files/cattletags-logo.png…”.

  • 7 links crawlers can't follow

    7 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 set, so this is minor.

  • 180 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 180 pages on cattletags.com and 4 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Search All Tag Recommendations For Your Cattle”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.cattletags.com/.

  • 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://www.cattletags.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.

3 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 (1,127 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 58 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9678
  • 2 broken images

    2 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=5213589&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=b5563d5d-b932-4ed8-a07c-5412129885f4&bo=1&sid=1b017350dd8b11f1a2d6ebe0133d8a79&vid=1b019f00dd8b11f192e5f991c7e694a2&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=918.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Shopify's Google Analytics stub called with: [array Array] See https://help.shopify.com/manual/promoting-marketing/pixe…”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    25 of 29 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix89
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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.

  • About 395 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 395 words of visible text.

7 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Talk to an expert!”.

  • 44 calls to action

    The homepage has 44 calls to action, for example “Shop Two-Piece Ear Tags”, “Shop One-Piece Ear Tags” and “Shop Feedlot Tags”.

  • 4 short forms

    4 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 4 phone links and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • 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
  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (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.

  • 19 cookies set on arrival

    19

    Opening the homepage sets 19 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.

  • 40 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 40 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 cattletags.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
