Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.4 s · 1.0 MBAbout 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, zotabox.com and zbcdn.net and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 63
63/100Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
400 ms · 380 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (380 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
750 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 140 KiBAbout 140 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.
Shopify adds 346 ms
346 msShopify costs a phone 346 ms of main-thread work and 461 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.
Main-thread work: 3.8 s
A phone's processor spends 3.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
zotabox.com adds 178 ms
178 mszotabox.com costs a phone 178 ms of main-thread work and 530 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 193 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 69 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 69 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
139 KiB6 images could be 139 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Minify JavaScript
14 KiB14 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 247 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 247 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (98), other files 1,016 KiB (121) and images 258 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.06 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.06 g of CO₂e: 127.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 17 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
52 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (66 characters)
Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “ClearRetain | Teeth Retainers, Mouth Guards, Night Guards and More”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (189 characters)
Your meta description is 189 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
76 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 76 pages on clearretain.com and 5 external pages.
4 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “ClearRetainClearRetain”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://clearretain.com/.
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://clearretain.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
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 (570 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://clearretain.com/llms.txt (12 KiB, 51 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
5 pages without a meta description
https://clearretain.com/collections/basic-retainers, https://clearretain.com/collections/premium-retainers, https://clearretain.com/collections/denture-retainers, https://clearretain.com/collections/night-guards and https://clearretain.com/collections/accessoories have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://clearretain.com/collections/reorder-with-file-your-smile has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked

Content and conversion
