Speed

12 to fix39
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    21 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Main-thread work: 14.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 14.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Mobile performance score: 39

    39/100

    Your mobile performance score is 39. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8,538 HTML elements

    The page has 8,538 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.7 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 479 KiB

    About 479 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 602 KiB

    40 images could be 602 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Hubspot, Google CDN and Shopify and others), adding 1.6 MB and 654 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 191 KiB

    15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (191 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 65 KiB

    About 65 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 145 ms

    145 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 145 ms of main-thread work and 878 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.

  • Google CDN adds 183 ms

    183 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 183 ms of main-thread work and 299 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 17 KiB

    17 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 15 ms

    15 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 15 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix33
  • 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.

  • Real-user INP: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Real visitors wait 2.5 s for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 4.0 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.8 s

    18.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.6 s

    5.6 s

    Your largest element takes 5.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Thanksgiving”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.4 s

    3.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Real visitors wait 3.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 276% slower for real visitors

    +276%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 312 ms to 1.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 863 ms

    863 ms

    Real visitors wait 863 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.4 s

    5.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Real-user CLS: 0.05

    0.05

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.05 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.034

    0.034

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.034, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 3.7 MB in 321 requests

    3.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 321 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (91), images 1.0 MB (62) and other files 949 KiB (109). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    solid-color_a9b8b76f-56c0-4dcd-8cc7-0c35a84fdeba_294x.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (63 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 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.06 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.06 g of CO₂e: 126.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9796
  • Frames without titles

    1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (12 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 21 form fields without a label

    21 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (6 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 214 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 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

3 to fixGoogle 10084
  • Title is long (70 characters)

    Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Party Supplies | Shop Warehouse Party Supplies from the #1 Party Store”.

  • Meta description is long (277 characters)

    Your meta description is 277 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (FAQPage, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url is not an absolute URL ("Factorydirectparty.com")”.

  • 649 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 649 pages on factorydirectparty.ca and 9 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Party Supplies & Dinnerware”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://factorydirectparty.com/.

  • 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://factorydirectparty.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://factorydirectparty.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

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.

  • Organization data: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (4,930 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

4 to fix62
  • 1 page without a title

    https://factorydirectparty.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://factorydirectparty.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://factorydirectparty.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://factorydirectparty.com/customer_authentication/redirect has 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 178 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    1 page of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 23 small tap targets

    23 of 107 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix89
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No analytics detected

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

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • About 2,752 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,752 words of visible text.

  • Urgency cues

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

7 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact Us” and “Shop All Products”.

  • 96 calls to action

    The homepage has 96 calls to action, for example “Shop All Tableware”, “Shop all Tableware” and “Shop All Plastic Tablecloths”.

  • 72 short forms

    72 short forms (5 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 140 testimonial or review blocks and “Trusted by 20,000+ Businesses”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 1 email link.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 9 trackers load before any consent

    9

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and Klaviyo and 4 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 25 cookies set on arrival

    25

    Opening the homepage sets 25 cookies, 6 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 37 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 37 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner
