Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 854 KiBAbout 854 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 1.1 s.
Main-thread work: 4.7 s
A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (website-files.com, JSDelivr CDN and Facebook and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 761 KiB40 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (761 KiB).
website-files.com adds 229 ms
229 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 229 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 318 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 160 ms
160 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 160 ms of main-thread work and 362 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.
Reduce unused CSS
220 ms · 76 KiBAbout 76 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 220 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
58 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 58 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Improve image delivery
38 KiB2 images could be 38 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

20.2 MBYour homepage downloads 20.2 MB in 190 requests on a phone: media 16.9 MB (6), scripts 2.2 MB (47) and images 700 KiB (63). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 5.7 g of CO₂ per visit
5.72 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.72 g of CO₂e: 686.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed

Accessibility

Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)
Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails 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.
Hidden but focusable
2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
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 (1 element)

2 checks passed
Every image has alt text

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 5 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Security and trust

No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

Email authentication score: 75/100
