Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 25.7 MBAbout 25.7 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
bestfreecdn.com adds 1.8 s
1.8 sbestfreecdn.com costs a phone 1.8 s of main-thread work and 506 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.
Signyfyd adds 1.0 s
1.0 sSignyfyd costs a phone 1.0 s of main-thread work and 281 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: 34
34/100Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.9 s
A phone's processor spends 9.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.6 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 (bestfreecdn.com, Signyfyd and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 2.2 MB and 4.1 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
992 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (992 KiB).
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 876 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 570 ms
570 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 570 ms of main-thread work and 669 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.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 66 KiBAbout 66 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Shopify adds 253 ms
253 msShopify costs a phone 253 ms of main-thread work and 381 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.
Cloudflare CDN adds 271 ms
271 msCloudflare CDN costs a phone 271 ms of main-thread work and 27 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.
1,709 HTML elements
The page has 1,709 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 15 KiB1 image could be 15 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
53 KiB53 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
47 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 47 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.0 MB in 208 requests
4.0 MBYour homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 208 requests on a phone: scripts 2.6 MB (94), other files 647 KiB (82) and fonts 303 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.12 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.12 g of CO₂e: 134.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
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 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
10 text elements with low contrast
10 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Invalid ARIA attributes
4 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 28 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 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 6 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
