Speed
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61 (desktop: 92). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
590 ms · 229 KiBAbout 229 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 590 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 107 KiBAbout 107 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 500 ms.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 57 KiB2 images could be 57 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.9 s
A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (New Relic and Other Google APIs/SDKs), adding 26 KiB and 129 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 85 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 92 but mobile only 61. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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 JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
1 image far larger than shown
43 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example CliqStudios-Standard-Banner-02.webp at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 43 KiB.
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.52 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.52 g of CO₂e: 61.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.8 MB in 281 requests
1.8 MBYour homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 281 requests on a phone: scripts 720 KiB (236), HTML 398 KiB (1) and images 332 KiB (15). That is a lean page.
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.
Accessibility
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.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (2 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 39 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 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
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Fall in Love With Your Kitchen.” and “Remodeling Your Kitchen?”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (FAQPage, HomeAndConstructionBusiness, Organization and Product) but with 1 problem, for example “Product: no offers (price) block”.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
113 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 113 pages on cliqstudios.com and 6 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 152 characters
Your meta description is 152 characters: “Shop kitchen cabinets online and get a free expert design from U.S.-based designers. Choose premium or Cliq Select cabi…”.
Title: 49 characters
Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “Premium Quality Kitchen Cabinets from CliqStudios”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.cliqstudios.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.cliqstudios.com/sitemap.xml.
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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details; logo would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,315 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
/stores/store/redirect/___store/promode/___from_store/default/uenc/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuY2xpcXN0dWRpb3MuY29tLz9fX19zdG9yZT1wcm9tb2Rl declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and /stores/store/redirect/___store/promode/___from_store/default/uenc/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuY2xpcXN0dWRpb3MuY29tLz9fX19zdG9yZT1wcm9tb2Rl all use the title “Premium Quality Kitchen Cabinets from CliqStudios”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
15 pages without an H1
/kitchen-cabinet-sale, /kitchen-cabinets, /kitchen-cabinet-samples.html, /cliqstudios-resources, /about-us and /pro-partner-program and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 pages with very little text
/kitchen-cabinet-sale, /kitchen-cabinets, /kitchen-cabinet-samples.html, /cliqstudios-resources, /about-us and /pro-partner-program and 9 others have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy

No Referrer-Policy

No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (cliqstudios.com).
Valid certificate (61 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YR1 verifies for cliqstudios.com and is valid for another 61 days.

All 46 links work

Content and conversion

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 mx ip4:4.15.189.205/32 ip4:66.162.232.192/26 ip4:69.30.45.96/27 ip4:69.30.4.0/27 ip4:209.162.194.0/24 ip4:207.18…”.
