Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
700 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 700 ms.
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (Google Fonts), adding 86 KiB and 0 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.
3 checks passed
Mobile performance score: 96
96/100Your mobile performance score is 96. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).
Main-thread work: 0.1 s
A phone's processor spends 0.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 5 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.117
0.117The layout shifts by 0.117 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
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.
5 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s
1.5 sThe first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Largest Contentful Paint: 1.5 s
1.5 sYour largest element renders in 1.5 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Building brands, systems & commerce infrastructure.”.
Speed Index: 1.5 s
1.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 1.5 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Time to Interactive: 1.5 s
1.5 sThe page is fully interactive after 1.5 s.
Images and page weight
About 0.03 g of CO₂ per visit
0.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.03 g of CO₂e: 3.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Page weight: 93 KiB in 6 requests
93 KiBYour homepage downloads 93 KiB in 6 requests on a phone: fonts 84 KiB (4), HTML 7 KiB (1) and stylesheets 2 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
Accessibility
All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
22 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 25 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 22 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://daphns.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at daphns.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
Only 2 internal links
The homepage links to only 2 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
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.
3 checks passed
Meta description: 150 characters
Your meta description is 150 characters: “Daphns is an operator-led commerce company building brands and the automation systems that power them. Real products. R…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Building brands, systems & commerce infrastructure.”.
Title: 59 characters
Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “Daphns — Building brands, systems & commerce infrastructure”.
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.
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.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (688 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Best practices
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were 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.
Security and trust
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (daphns.com).
Valid certificate (179 days left)
The certificate from Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M01 verifies for daphns.com and is valid for another 179 days.
http:// redirects to https
http://daphns.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 4 links work
All 4 links checked from your homepage (1 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
daphns.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
daphns.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed
Domain is 5 years old
5 yearsdaphns.com was registered in Aug 2021 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Aug 2027
daphns.com is registered until Aug 2027.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 681 words of copy
The homepage carries about 681 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen

1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Get in touch”.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 3 email links.
Email authentication
No SPF record
daphns.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 40/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
1 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication.
Privacy and tracking
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.
2 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 2 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).
Upkeep, stack and company
No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
