Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.6 s · 691 KiBAbout 691 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.9 s38 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.
Main-thread work: 6.2 s
A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.3 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 (Shopify, rebuyengine.com and Clarity and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
950 ms · 552 KiB10 images could be 552 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 950 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 59
59/100Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
750 ms · 112 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (112 KiB).
Shopify adds 569 ms
569 msShopify costs a phone 569 ms of main-thread work and 990 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
450 ms · 73 KiBAbout 73 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
400 ms · 54 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 54 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
300 ms · 32 KiB32 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
rebuyengine.com adds 235 ms
235 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 235 ms of main-thread work and 735 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.
1,975 HTML elements
The page has 1,975 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 147 ms
147 msKlaviyo costs a phone 147 ms of main-thread work and 320 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.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 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).
Duplicated JavaScript
7 KiB7 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
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.

Core Web Vitals
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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 33.3 s
33.3 sYour largest element takes 33.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Unlock 10% Off Subscribe to receive 10% OFF your first orde…”.
Time to Interactive: 33.5 s

Speed Index: 13.2 s
13.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 13.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user TTFB: 801 ms
801 msReal visitors wait 801 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Total Blocking Time: 251 ms
251 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 251 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-9%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 174 ms to 155 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.7 MB in 509 requests
5.7 MBYour homepage downloads 5.7 MB in 509 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (161), other files 1.4 MB (236) and images 1.3 MB (27). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
DTP_Pup-kinSeason_WebsiteBanner-Fullscreen.webp 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).
2 images in older formats
2 images (82 KiB) 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (28 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit
1.60 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.60 g of CO₂e: 192.5 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
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
12 links without text
12 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h6 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 36 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
54 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 54 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (91 characters)
Your title is 91 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “All the best for your dog — premium treats, gear, & more in one place – Downtown Pet Supp…”.
Meta description is long (290 characters)
Your meta description is 290 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("https:files/2024-DTPS_Logos-Charcoal.svg")”.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
197 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 197 pages on downtownpetsupply.com and 11 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://downtownpetsupply.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

AI search readiness
4 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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; logo and description would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,305 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://downtownpetsupply.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://downtownpetsupply.com/pages/downtown-barkery-air-dried-treats, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/cow-ears declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
2 pages share a title
/ and https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/cow-ears all use the title “All the best for your dog — premium treats, gear, & more in one place…”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
9 pages without an H1
https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/downtown-barkery-freeze-dried-treats, https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/dental-yak-chew-cranberry-and-blueberry-yak-cheese-for-dogs, https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/chicken-and-bone-broth-jerky-bites, https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/air-dried-jerky-sticks, https://downtownpetsupply.com/collections/downtown-barkery-premium-functional-dog-treats and https://downtownpetsupply.com/products/junior-bully-sticks and 3 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
