chloe.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
6.7 s · 1.1 MB68 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.3 s · 1.2 MBAbout 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.3 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.4 s
1.4 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 328 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 39
39/100Your mobile performance score is 39 (desktop: 44). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.7 s
A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
350 ms · 2.5 MB10 images could be 2.5 MB 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, PowerFront and Trustcommander and others), adding 969 KiB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 685 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 68 KiBAbout 68 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
1,967 HTML elements
The page has 1,967 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Minify JavaScript
35 KiB35 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
22 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 22 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

Server response: 22 ms

Core Web Vitals
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: 23.6 s
23.6 sYour largest element takes 23.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “This website uses third-party cookies, pixels, and similar …”.
Time to Interactive: 24.5 s
24.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 24.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 1.2 s

Tap response (INP) got 29% slower for real visitors
+29%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 259 ms to 337 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 images without width and height
6 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Largest content (LCP) got 21% faster for real visitors
-21%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.7 s to 2.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.073
0.073The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.073, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.7 MB in 118 requests
5.7 MBYour homepage downloads 5.7 MB in 118 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (30), scripts 1.9 MB (39) and stylesheets 113 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
Chloe_FallWinter_2026_10_NoLogo__1350x1080.jpg weighs 1.6 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
3 images far larger than shown
1.7 MB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Chloe_FallWinter_2026_10_NoLogo__1350x1080.jpg at 2,700 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 1.7 MB.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Chloe_FallWinter_2026_2_NoLogo__1080x1350.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 in older formats
1 image (485 KiB) is 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 below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (28 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit
1.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.61 g of CO₂e: 193.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
All page content should be contained by landmarks (21 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 21 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 67 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (70 characters)
Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Chloé Official Site | Luxury Bags, Ready-to-Wear & Women's Accessories”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
177 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 177 pages on chloe.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 123 characters

AI search readiness
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.
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.
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 (654 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
14 pages without an H1
/en-us/winter-2026-collection.html, /en-us/c/bags/paddington, /en-us/c/new-arrivals, /en-us/fall-2026-collection.html, /en-us/c/bags and /en-us/c/bags/tote-bags and 8 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (chloe.com).
Valid certificate (162 days left)
The certificate from DigiCert Inc · DigiCert Global G3 TLS ECC SHA384 2020 CA1 verifies for chloe.com and is valid for another 162 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://chloe.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2

Domain and trust
No CAA record
chloe.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

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 3 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 100/100

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:%{ir}.%{v}.%{d}.spf.has.pphosted.com -all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (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.
20 cookies set on arrival
