Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Improve image delivery
3.5 s · 814 KiB7 images could be 814 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 479 KiBAbout 479 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 27
27/100Your mobile performance score is 27. 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, Yotpo and Shopify and others), adding 884 KiB and 537 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 442 ms
442 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 442 ms of main-thread work and 604 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.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 388 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 64 KiBAbout 64 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
113 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (113 KiB).
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.3 s
12.3 sYour largest element takes 12.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.903
0.903The layout shifts by 0.903 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Time to Interactive: 12.3 s
12.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.4 s
6.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 662 ms
662 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 662 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
3 images without width and height
3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
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.

First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.4 MB in 260 requests
3.4 MBYour homepage downloads 3.4 MB in 260 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (10), other files 1.1 MB (195) and scripts 1.0 MB (42). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (150 KiB) are 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 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.96 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.96 g of CO₂e: 115.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

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.
7 links without text
7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h1 → h3 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 15 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Everything you need in a great blazer, nothing yo…” and “Mix and match the Eugene Mark Blazer with your cu…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (262 characters)
Your meta description is 262 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
20 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 20 pages on eugenemark.ca and 3 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 41 characters
Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Eugene Mark Apparel | Eugene Mark Apparel”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://eugenemark.ca/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: WebSite.
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://eugenemark.ca/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 (374 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://eugenemark.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://eugenemark.ca/policies/terms-of-service and https://eugenemark.ca/policies/refund-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages with very little text
https://eugenemark.ca/policies/refund-policy and https://eugenemark.ca/collections/frontpage 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.

Content and conversion
