Speed

2 to fix80
  • Mobile performance score: 80

    80/100

    Your mobile performance score is 80. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 170 KiB

    8 images could be 170 KiB 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    250 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 250 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 31 KiB

    About 31 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 25 KiB

    About 25 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.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 50 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 68 KiB and 16 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    5 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 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: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 223 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 14% slower for real visitors

    +14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 73 ms to 84 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +5%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

8 checks passed

  • Real-user TTFB: 464 ms

    464 ms

    Real visitors wait 464 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    mini-pro-blog-dji-jvnphoto-10-scaled.jpg 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.46 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.46 g of CO₂e: 54.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.6 MB in 128 requests

    1.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.6 MB in 128 requests on a phone: other files 639 KiB (64), images 622 KiB (26) and scripts 224 KiB (31). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8191
  • 10 tap targets too small

    10 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 5 images without alt text

    5 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)

    Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 8 links without text

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

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8585
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“DroneLabs.ca” and “FAQ.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (209 characters)

    Your meta description is 209 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 146 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 146 pages on dronelabs.ca and 3 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 38 characters

    Your title is a healthy 38 characters: “DroneLabs.ca - The #1 Drone Shop in BC”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://dronelabs.ca/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://dronelabs.ca/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,460 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://dronelabs.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 7 pages without a meta description

    https://dronelabs.ca/collections/dji-neo-2, https://dronelabs.ca/collections/dji-mavic-4-pro, https://dronelabs.ca/collections/dji-air-3s, https://dronelabs.ca/collections/mavic-3-series, https://dronelabs.ca/collections/inspire-3 and https://dronelabs.ca/collections/enterprise-collection and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 67 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Best practices

Google 92100
  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    35 of 42 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix79
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 29 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • No map or directions link

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

  • 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.

  • About 562 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 562 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “PRE ORDER”.

  • 15 calls to action

    The homepage has 15 calls to action, for example “Learn More”, “Contact Us” and “Start shopping”.

  • 11 short forms

    11 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Analytics (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.

  • 9 cookies set on arrival

    9

    Opening the homepage sets 9 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 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 dronelabs.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
