Speed

10 to fix78
  • Mobile performance score: 78

    78/100

    Your mobile performance score is 78. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 679 KiB

    About 679 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.

  • 6 third-party services on the page

    6 third-party services load with your homepage (Bold Commerce, Shopify and loox.io and others), adding 2.0 MB and 569 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 200 KiB

    6 images could be 200 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    397 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (397 KiB).

  • Bold Commerce adds 264 ms

    264 ms

    Bold Commerce costs a phone 264 ms of main-thread work and 741 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.

  • Main-thread work: 3.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1,934 HTML elements

    The page has 1,934 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Shopify adds 119 ms

    119 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 119 ms of main-thread work and 734 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.

  • bevycommerce.com adds 1 ms

    1 ms

    bevycommerce.com costs a phone 1 ms of main-thread work and 371 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    250 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 250 ms.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 208 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 55 KiB

    About 55 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    41 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 41 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • 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
  • Time to Interactive: 14.2 s

    14.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s

    +52%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 78 ms to 120 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

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

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 525 ms

    525 ms

  • Total Blocking Time: 171 ms

    171 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 171 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.006

    0.006

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.006, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.4 MB in 471 requests

    4.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 471 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (161), other files 1.6 MB (263) and images 765 KiB (18). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.24 g of CO₂e: 149.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • 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 9196
  • 8 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 4 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 53 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 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

4 to fixGoogle 8584
  • Title is long (95 characters)

    Your title is 95 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Dr. Tim’s Pet Food | Feed the journey. Support their wellness. – Dr. Tim's Pet Food Compa…”.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 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.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 178 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 178 pages on drtims.com and 5 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 151 characters

    Your meta description is 151 characters: “Discover Dr. Tim’s Pet Food, veterinarian-formulated dog and cat nutrition made in the USA with high-quality animal pro…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://drtims.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://drtims.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,000 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 5 pages share a meta description

    /collections/food, /collections/food/casual, /collections/food/weight-management, /collections/food/active and /collections/food/extreme-athlete use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 6 pages without an H1

    /collections/food, /collections/food/casual, /collections/sensitive-systems, /collections/food/weight-management, /collections/food/active and /collections/food/extreme-athlete have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 62 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    6 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.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 6 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 6 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    26 of 27 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://instagram.com/drtimspetfood.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (drtims.com).

  • Valid certificate (44 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for drtims.com and is valid for another 44 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://drtims.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    drtims.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    drtims.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 22 years old

    22 years

    drtims.com was registered in Sep 2004 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Sep 2027

    drtims.com is registered until Sep 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 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 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 472 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 472 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: “Shop Now”.

  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Shop Now”, “Shop now Shop now” and “Sign up”.

  • 44 short forms

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

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

Email authentication

3 to fix50
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be drtims.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • SPF does not block other senders (?all)

    Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 include:_spf.createsend.com +a +mx +ip4:74.220.215.68 ?all”.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 50/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Ads (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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 18 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 4 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.
