eq3.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 59 (desktop: 93). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

5 images could be 167 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

4 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Yotpo and Shopify and others), adding 346 KiB and 311 ms of main-thread time.

5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (20 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 115 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Desktop scores 93 but mobile only 59. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

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

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Your largest element takes 9.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

The page becomes fully interactive after 9.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 223 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Your homepage downloads 16.7 MB in 178 requests on a phone: media 14.7 MB (2), other files 735 KiB (88) and images 656 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.74 g of CO₂e: 568.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 53 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is only 3 characters: “EQ3”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

The homepage links to 265 pages on eq3.com and 1 external page.

There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

Your homepage links to /en-us/collections/all and /en-us/collections/living, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

/en-us/collections/perfect-pairings, /en-us/collections/sofas, /en-us/collections/loveseat, /en-us/collections/apartment-sofas, /en-us/collections/sleeper-sofas and /en-us/collections/sectionals and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

/en-us/collections/seating, /en-us/collections/sectionals and /en-us/collections/chairs-living have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

/en-us/collections/chairs-living has 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.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 116 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

3 links from your homepage to your own site are broken, for example https://www.eq3.com/en-us/collections/all (500).

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

Opening https://eq3.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.

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

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

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

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

eq3.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.

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

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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

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 473 words of visible text.

DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be eq3.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

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.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo (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 11 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 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
