Render-blocking requests
1.5 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 1.5 MB38 images could be 1.5 MB 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.
Mobile performance score: 66
66/100Your mobile performance score is 66. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 156 KiBAbout 156 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 55 KiBAbout 55 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Klaviyo adds 102 ms
102 msKlaviyo costs a phone 102 ms of main-thread work and 308 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 623 KiB and 154 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 86 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Use efficient cache lifetimes
8 KiB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8 KiB).
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.

Main-thread work: 1.1 s
A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 552 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 16.5 s
16.5 sYour largest element takes 16.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 17.7 s
17.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.5 s
6.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
43 images without width and height
43 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s
2.4 sThe first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
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.
2 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 18 ms
18 msScripts block the page for only 18 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
10 images far larger than shown
702 KiB10 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example for_da_site.png at 1,080 px wide, shown at 157 px. Resized copies would save about 702 KiB.
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 238 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 238 requests on a phone: images 2.2 MB (45), other files 689 KiB (88) and scripts 635 KiB (92). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
31 images below the first screen load straight away
31 images further down the page (1.8 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.06 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.06 g of CO₂e: 127.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
43 images without alt text
43 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (41 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 41 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.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

23 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 32 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 23 passed and 9 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 17 pages on definitiveauthentic.com and 12 external pages.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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.
Only about 182 words
The homepage has only about 182 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
2 checks passed

8 cookies set on arrival
