eleveight.studio website review

9 images could be 943 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

About 166 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Framer CDN, Google Tag Manager and Google Fonts and others), adding 4.3 MB and 619 ms of main-thread time.

Your mobile performance score is 68. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

Framer CDN costs a phone 478 ms of main-thread work and 4.0 MB 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.

The page has 2,541 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 96 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

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

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Your largest element takes 17.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Bezi website shown in Eleveight Studio’s portfolio, view 1.”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 18.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Your homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 81 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (50), scripts 543 KiB (18) and fonts 215 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example ZpXQtAnrIx8axl4O2nOSeRZL0.png at 2,526 px wide, shown at 480 px. Resized copies would save about 232 KiB.

1 image further down the page (405 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.22 g of CO₂e: 146.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 22 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

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

There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Shaping websites for immersive digital brands.”, “Shaping websites for immersive digital brands.” and “Shaping websites for immersive digital brands.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

The homepage links to 10 pages on eleveight.studio and 25 external pages.

There is no https://www.eleveight.studio/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.

Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,115 words of visible text.

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

Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
