dvsshoes.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.

Speed

10 to fix73
  • Improve image delivery

    1.3 s · 340 KiB

    10 images could be 340 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.0 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Google CDN and aov.ai and others), adding 1.8 MB and 797 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    644 KiB

    About 644 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 288 KiB

    16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (288 KiB).

  • Main-thread work: 3.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Shopify adds 193 ms

    193 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 193 ms of main-thread work and 872 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.

  • 2,349 HTML elements

    The page has 2,349 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Google CDN adds 149 ms

    149 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 149 ms of main-thread work and 299 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 · 65 KiB

    About 65 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.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 137 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    9 KiB

    9 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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: 15 ms

    15 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 17.9 s

    17.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 17.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.9 s

    5.9 s

    Your largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Real-user INP: 204 ms

    204 ms

    Real visitors wait 204 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 4.5 s

    4.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 146 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

8 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors wait 1.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 542 ms

    542 ms

    Real visitors wait 542 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 15% faster for real visitors

    -15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 1.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 176 ms

    176 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 176 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.0 MB in 434 requests

    4.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 434 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (201), other files 927 KiB (141) and images 876 KiB (61). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (97 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (96 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.13 g of CO₂e: 136.1 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

2 to fixGoogle 9397
  • Frames without titles

    1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

  • 39 links without text

    39 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.

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

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 86 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 2 failed. 5 mores 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 (28 characters)

    Your title is only 28 characters: “DVS Shoes | DVS Shoe Company”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is long (320 characters)

    Your meta description is 320 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 183 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 183 pages on dvsshoes.com and 9 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “DVS Shoes”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: OnlineStore and Organization.

  • 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://dvsshoes.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: 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 (686 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 53 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 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.

  • 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.

  • Every page has a title

    All 6 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was 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

    32 of 35 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.

  • 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 (dvsshoes.com).

  • Valid certificate (66 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for dvsshoes.com and is valid for another 66 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://dvsshoes.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 49 links work

    All 49 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 9 external) answered without errors; 1 did not answer within 5 s.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    dvsshoes.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

    dvsshoes.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 26 years old

    26 years

    dvsshoes.com was registered in Feb 2000 through Network Solutions, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Feb 2029

    dvsshoes.com is registered until Feb 2029.

Content and conversion

5 to fix72
  • 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

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. 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 direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • No opening hours

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

  • No map or directions link

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

  • About 365 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 365 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 SLOT ↗” and “SHOP REVIVAL ↗”.

  • 19 calls to action

    The homepage has 19 calls to action, for example “Shop all new arrivals→”, “Shop all shoes→” and “Shop All↗”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Email authentication

1 to fix75
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be dvsshoes.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • Email authentication score: 75/100

    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.

2 checks passed
  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

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, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 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.

  • 42 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 42 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 15 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.

Apps your storefront loads

Indexgpt · Sc Easy Redirects · Mntn · Minmaxify Order Limits · Warnify Pro Warnings · Instafeed · Okendo · Google Youtube · Reamaze Live Chat Helpdesk · Klaviyo Email Marketing Sms · Product Warnings · Loop Returns · Aov Cart Drawer · Accessez · Grouptify Combined Listings

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
