Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Improve image delivery
4.2 s · 1.8 MB21 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.2 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.1 s · 1.4 MBAbout 1.4 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.1 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.5 s · 902 KiB39 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (902 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Main-thread work: 11.3 s
A phone's processor spends 11.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 13
13/100Your mobile performance score is 13. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, productcustomizer.com and Facebook and others), adding 3.3 MB and 2.2 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 668 ms
668 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 668 ms of main-thread work and 736 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.
productcustomizer.com adds 507 ms
507 msproductcustomizer.com costs a phone 507 ms of main-thread work and 25 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.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 68 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 68 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 80 KiBAbout 80 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Facebook adds 310 ms
310 msFacebook costs a phone 310 ms of main-thread work and 375 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 282 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
rebuyengine.com adds 196 ms
196 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 196 ms of main-thread work and 738 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.
Shopify adds 110 ms
110 msShopify costs a phone 110 ms of main-thread work and 1,003 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.
Duplicated JavaScript
50 ms · 1 KiB1 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
11 KiB11 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.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s
2.5 sThe first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.9 MB in 414 requests
7.9 MBYour homepage downloads 7.9 MB in 414 requests on a phone: scripts 3.2 MB (122), images 2.8 MB (34) and other files 1.1 MB (199). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (21 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit
2.24 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.24 g of CO₂e: 269.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

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
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
/pages/help-center has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
9 pages without an H1
/collections, /pages/quiz, /pages/partnerships, /pages/wholesale-and-custom-orders, /pages/contact and /pages/help-center and 3 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
8 pages with very little text
/collections, /pages/quiz, /pages/partnerships, /pages/wholesale-and-custom-orders, /pages/contact and /pages/help-center and 2 others have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example http://facebook.com/eargasmearplugs.
No Referrer-Policy

http:// redirects to https
http://eargasm.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.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 27 days
eargasm.com is registered until Dec 2026. If it lapses, the site and its email stop working and someone else can buy the name. Renew it, and turn on auto-renew.
DNSSEC is off
eargasm.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 30 years old
30 yearseargasm.com was registered in Dec 1995 through Squarespace Domains II LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only ssl.com, digicert.com, globalsign.com and letsencrypt.org to issue certificates for eargasm.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
Only about 128 words
The homepage has only about 128 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No risk reducer

DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “k2” and “mandrill”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
