espro.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.4 s · 620 KiBAbout 620 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.0 s · 574 KiB31 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (574 KiB).
Main-thread work: 5.3 s
A phone's processor spends 5.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, recart.com and Facebook and others), adding 20.4 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 63 ms
63 msShopify costs a phone 63 ms of main-thread work and 19.1 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.
Mobile performance score: 52
52/100Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
950 ms10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Improve image delivery
550 ms · 103 KiB3 images could be 103 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 550 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 403 ms
403 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 403 ms of main-thread work and 508 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
300 ms · 52 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 52 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
15 long tasks on the main thread
15 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 190 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
100 ms · 30 KiBAbout 30 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
32 KiB32 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.

Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
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: 14.8 s
14.8 sYour largest element takes 14.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 17.3 s
17.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 714 ms
714 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 714 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user INP: 203 ms
203 msReal visitors wait 203 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 5.0 s
5.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 1.9 s
1.9 sThe first text or image appears after 1.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
4 images without width and height
4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 195 ms to 187 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+1%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.6 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 22.1 MB in 273 requests
22.1 MBYour homepage downloads 22.1 MB in 273 requests on a phone: media 18.8 MB (3), scripts 1.9 MB (97) and other files 885 KiB (143). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
27 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example P7_Featured_edited.png at 1,403 px wide, shown at 320 px. Resized copies would save about 27 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (64 KiB) is 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.
About 6.3 g of CO₂ per visit
6.26 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 6.26 g of CO₂e: 750.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
6 images without alt text
6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6, h3 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (239 characters)
Your meta description is 239 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
57 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 57 pages on espro.com and 10 external pages.
7 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “ESPRO”.
Title: 31 characters
Your title is a healthy 31 characters: “ESPRO | Better Coffee by Design”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://espro.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Product.
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://espro.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
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.
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
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (500 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
4 pages without a meta description
/collections/spare-parts, /blogs/coffee-talk, /blogs/espro-coffee-house-beaches and /blogs/news have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /products/coffee-french-press-p6, whose canonical is /collections/french-press/products/coffee-french-press-p6. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
4 pages without an H1
/pages/blogs, /pages/espro-difference, /pages/our-story and /pages/contact-us have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 33 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Titles are unique
Every page we checked has its own title.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title

Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=343036964&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=c95286cd-cd7f-4bdc-826e-7d38d07836d6&bo=1&sid=4ab0cb50da5d11f1852dafc1ff5ed070&vid=4ab11020da5d11f1ba0557c08a9e5367&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=9.
6 JavaScript errors while loading
6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
8 of 9 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
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 (espro.com).
Valid certificate (55 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for espro.com and is valid for another 55 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://espro.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 45 links work
All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors; 3 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
espro.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
espro.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 28 years old
28 yearsespro.com was registered in Jun 1998 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Jun 2033
espro.com is registered until Jun 2033.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 17 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 258 words of copy
The homepage carries about 258 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 P7”.
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Shop P7”, “SHOP ESPRO P3” and “Shop P0 Ultralight Press”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be espro.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 60/100
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.
1 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:dc-dcc5238edc._spfm.espro.com ~all”.
Privacy and tracking
10 trackers load before any consent
10Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 5 mores (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.
27 cookies set on arrival
27Opening the homepage sets 27 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected

50 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 50 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 11 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.
