evecurls.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.6 s · 866 KiBAbout 866 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.4 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.
Avoid multiple page redirects
2.0 sThe page goes through 2 redirects before it starts loading, costing about 2.0 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.3 s
1.3 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.3 s of main-thread work and 485 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 28
28/100Your mobile performance score is 28. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.5 s
A phone's processor spends 9.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.2 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, Klaviyo and Clarity and others), adding 1.1 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
1.5 MB29 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 77 KiBAbout 77 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 461 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
350 ms · 65 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (65 KiB).
2,012 HTML elements
The page has 2,012 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Document request latency
150 msThe HTML itself could arrive about 150 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Duplicated JavaScript
21 KiB21 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 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 JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Speed Index: 9.5 s
9.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 20% slower for real visitors
+20%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 160 ms to 193 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
12 images without width and height
12 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.3 MB in 358 requests
6.3 MBYour homepage downloads 6.3 MB in 358 requests on a phone: images 3.0 MB (97), scripts 1.9 MB (126) and other files 818 KiB (100). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
24 images far larger than shown
1.3 MB24 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Eve_Curls_Hero_Mobile.svg at 1,211 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 1.3 MB.
17 images in older formats
17 images (1.5 MB) 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 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit
1.80 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.80 g of CO₂e: 215.7 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
4 tap targets too small
4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
14 links without text
14 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 191 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (9 characters)
Your title is only 9 characters: “Eve Curls”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is short (55 characters)
Your meta description is only 55 characters: “Luxury cosmetics brand selling curly haircare products.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
76 internal links, 19 external
The homepage links to 76 pages on evecurls.com and 19 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Eve Curls EU + Other”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.evecurls.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, FAQPage, Organization and WebSite.
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://www.evecurls.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,439 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
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to /pages/evecurls-quiz, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
2 pages without a meta description
/collections/curl-care-products and /collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
5 pages without an H1
/collections/curl-care-products, /pages/over-ons, /pages/hoe-te-gebruiken, /pages/untitled-sep-18-11-49-07 and /collections/all have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

32 small tap targets
32 of 64 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 third-party cookie

Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
1 checks passed

Short HSTS lifetime

2 links through redirect chains
2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.evecurls.com/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=nl®ion_country=NL.
No Referrer-Policy

Valid certificate (60 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for evecurls.com and is valid for another 60 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set

http:// redirects to https
http://evecurls.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.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
evecurls.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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 5 years old
5 yearsevecurls.com was registered in Jan 2021 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only letsencrypt.org, pki.goog, ssl.com and digicert.com to issue certificates for evecurls.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Jan 2029
evecurls.com is registered until Jan 2029.
Content and conversion
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.

7 short forms
7 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

Social proof on the homepage: a star rating and 1 trust badge.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be evecurls.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
