Speed

7 to fix57
  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 s · 538 KiB

    7 images could be 538 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 180 KiB

    About 180 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 57

    57/100

    Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 497 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 55 KiB

    About 55 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • Shopify adds 30 ms

    30 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 30 ms of main-thread work and 343 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (rechargecdn.com, Shopify and mkdesignmarketing.com and others), adding 474 KiB and 80 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2 KiB

    2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2 KiB).

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix54
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.7 s

    8.7 s

    Your largest element takes 8.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.7 s

    8.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 5.9 s

    5.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 459 ms

    459 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 459 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 3 images without width and height

    3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.4 MB in 167 requests

    2.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 167 requests on a phone: other files 804 KiB (110), scripts 737 KiB (37) and images 626 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (155 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.67 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.67 g of CO₂e: 80.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 7690
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    13 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (13 elements)

    ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 13 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 8 text elements with low contrast

    8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 16 links without text

    16 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 45 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: 45 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 8573
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is long (69 characters)

    Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “DA BOX Community Supported Agriculture - A Program of The Food Basket”.

  • 5 H1 headlines

    There are 5 <h1> headlines (“How It Works:”, “Our CSA Products:” and “2026 DA BOX CSA Program Calendar”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 36 internal links, 22 external

    The homepage links to 36 pages on daboxcsa.org and 22 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://daboxcsa.org/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: WebSite.

  • 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://daboxcsa.org/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://daboxcsa.org/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.

2 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 (2,152 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 9 pages without a meta description

    https://daboxcsa.org/pages/how-it-works, https://daboxcsa.org/pages/terms-and-conditions, https://daboxcsa.org/pages/snap-ebt-payment-periods, https://daboxcsa.org/pages/weekly-newsletter, https://daboxcsa.org/blogs/food-for-thought and https://daboxcsa.org/blogs/recipes and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://daboxcsa.org/pages/terms-and-conditions has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 10 internal pages checked

    We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    9 pages of 10 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 9 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 2 small tap targets

    2 of 9 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix78
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • About 1,691 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,691 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Sign Up”.

  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Sign Up”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at daboxcsa.org, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
