Speed

5 to fix56
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    41 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 s · 305 KiB

    About 305 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 1.4 MB

    13 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 56

    56/100

    Your mobile performance score is 56. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 316 ms

    316 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 316 ms of main-thread work and 305 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.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, roomvo.com and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 457 KiB and 335 ms of main-thread time.

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 224 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 67 KiB

    About 67 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.

  • Minify CSS

    140 ms · 5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    130 ms · 3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    15 KiB

    2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (15 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 499 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 55 ms

    55 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 55 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Real-user TTFB: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 26.0 s

    26.0 s

    Your largest element takes 26.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Affordable Floor Fashion”.

  • Time to Interactive: 26.7 s

    26.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 26.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 10.6 s

    10.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 10.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 77% slower for real visitors

    +77%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 224 ms

    224 ms

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Real visitors wait 2.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 71 ms

    71 ms

    Real visitors wait 71 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Tap response (INP) got 48% faster for real visitors

    -48%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 135 ms to 71 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 6.5 MB in 139 requests

    6.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 139 requests on a phone: images 5.5 MB (26), scripts 723 KiB (64) and stylesheets 130 KiB (39). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 11 images in older formats

    11 images (1.1 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • 7 images below the first screen load straight away

    7 images further down the page (824 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.85 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.85 g of CO₂e: 222.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9396
  • 7 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 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.

  • 14 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 18 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    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: 43 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

2 to fixGoogle 10088
  • Title is short (20 characters)

    Your title is only 20 characters: “Homepage - DH Floors”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is short (21 characters)

    Your meta description is only 21 characters: “@keyframes slideOne {”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • 95 internal links, 35 external

    The homepage links to 95 pages on dixie-home.com and 35 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Affordable Floor Fashion”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.dixie-home.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Article, ImageObject, Organization, Person and WebPage.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.dixie-home.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing url, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

3 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 (488 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.dixie-home.com/llms.txt (15 KiB, 131 links, though it should open with a “# Title” line), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.dixie-home.com/product-category/carpet has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 11 pages slow to respond

    https://www.dixie-home.com/wishlist, https://www.dixie-home.com/shop, https://www.dixie-home.com/pages/carpet-cushion, https://www.dixie-home.com/pages/texture-carpet, https://www.dixie-home.com/pages/envision-nylon and https://www.dixie-home.com/pages/envisionsd-pet-solutions and 5 others took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    13 pages of 15 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.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Mobile viewport set

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

  • 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.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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 dixie-home.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
