Speed

4 to fix96
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.8 s · 546 KiB

    71 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (546 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

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

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 118 KiB

    5 images could be 118 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 2,128 HTML elements

    The page has 2,128 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    About 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics), adding 178 KiB and 145 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    122 KiB

    About 122 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 101 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 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.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 96

    96/100

    Your mobile performance score is 96 (desktop: 100). That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 324 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix96
  • Time to Interactive: 4.4 s

    4.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Your largest element takes 2.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “COTI privacy is live on Avalanche”.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

4 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.9 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 53 ms

    53 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 53 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.21 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.21 g of CO₂e: 24.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

Content and conversion

1 to fix90
  • 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.
