Speed
Main-thread work: 4.9 s
A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,260 HTML elements
The page has 3,260 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
500 ms · 654 KiB12 images could be 654 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and Cloudflare CDN), adding 158 KiB and 183 ms of main-thread time.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 143 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
92 KiBAbout 92 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
81 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (81 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 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.
Duplicated JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 162 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 162 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (23), other files 632 KiB (67) and scripts 345 KiB (34). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
172 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example WhatsApp_Image_2025-12-24_at_17.55.19_076b14ed.jpg at 2,106 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 172 KiB.
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (187 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.85 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 102.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (3 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 3 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.
12 links without text
12 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (8 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text

48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (10 characters)
Your title is only 10 characters: “Choco Dude”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is long (261 characters)
Your meta description is 261 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
106 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 106 pages on chocodude.com and 0 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.chocodude.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Product.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.chocodude.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data

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 (1,372 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.chocodude.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
7 pages without a meta description
https://www.chocodude.com/collections/all, https://www.chocodude.com/collections/chocolate, https://www.chocodude.com/collections/snacks, https://www.chocodude.com/collections/toys, https://www.chocodude.com/collections/treats and https://www.chocodude.com/collections/beverages and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
