Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.0 s · 699 KiBAbout 699 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 450 KiB21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (450 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37. 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 (Shopify, Yotpo and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 1.6 MB and 923 ms of main-thread time.
Minify JavaScript
600 ms · 33 KiB33 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Shopify adds 306 ms
306 msShopify costs a phone 306 ms of main-thread work and 822 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: 3.6 s
A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 53 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 53 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Yotpo adds 203 ms
203 msYotpo costs a phone 203 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.
1,951 HTML elements
The page has 1,951 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 38 KiBAbout 38 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.
Improve image delivery
89 KiB6 images could be 89 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Minify CSS
10 ms · 3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.

Core Web Vitals
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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 18.7 s
18.7 sYour largest element takes 18.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience, serve p…”.
Time to Interactive: 24.1 s
24.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 24.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 1
1The layout shifts by 1 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Speed Index: 8.3 s
8.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 3.0 s
3.0 sReal visitors wait 3.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Tap response (INP) got 38% slower for real visitors
+38%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 187 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 25% slower for real visitors

2.9 sThe first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
19 images without width and height
19 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.9 MB in 505 requests
4.9 MBYour homepage downloads 4.9 MB in 505 requests on a phone: scripts 2.3 MB (219), images 1.2 MB (72) and other files 910 KiB (177). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Mobile_nav1_9ba8019f-7db7-454f-b98f-a285bafa5a22.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).
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (118 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.38 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.38 g of CO₂e: 165.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
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
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (5 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 80 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
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.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
161 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 161 pages on emmalewisham.com and 13 external pages.
5 checks passed

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://emmalewisham.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness

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.
Text is in the HTML

llms.txt published

Other pages
15 internal pages checked

Content and conversion
Thin social proof

No direct contact details

The homepage carries about 585 words of visible text.
