digits.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.2 s · 1.7 MB64 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.7 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 601 KiBAbout 601 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.5 s13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
12,151 HTML elements
The page has 12,151 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 32
32/100Your mobile performance score is 32 (desktop: 67). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.8 s
A phone's processor spends 4.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 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 (digitscpu.com, Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot and others), adding 4.0 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
digitscpu.com adds 692 ms
692 msdigitscpu.com costs a phone 692 ms of main-thread work and 2.9 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.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 511 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 209 ms
209 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 209 ms of main-thread work and 317 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.
Vimeo adds 38 ms
38 msVimeo costs a phone 38 ms of main-thread work and 591 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
150 ms · 54 KiBAbout 54 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.
Improve image delivery
161 KiB6 images could be 161 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 67 but mobile only 32. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.1 MB in 119 requests
4.1 MBYour homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 119 requests on a phone: images 1.4 MB (54), scripts 1.2 MB (32) and other files 762 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images far larger than shown
519 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example profile-photo-d4021f00.webp at 1,589 px wide, shown at 100 px. Resized copies would save about 519 KiB.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
webapp-ledger.BXEp0M2M_1ecN7M.avif is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.15 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.15 g of CO₂e: 138.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
9 text elements with low contrast
9 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 94 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 3 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage

No form on the homepage

No map or directions link
