fieldstudio.ca does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 41 KiB3 images could be 41 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 26 KiBAbout 26 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 19 KiBAbout 19 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.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 68 KiB and 16 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
5 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).
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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 34.4 s
34.4 sYour largest element takes 34.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 34.4 s
34.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 34.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.3 s
7.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
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.
3 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.055
0.055The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.055, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.4 MB in 143 requests
7.4 MBYour homepage downloads 7.4 MB in 143 requests on a phone: fonts 5.9 MB (2), other files 787 KiB (101) and images 476 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit
2.11 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.11 g of CO₂e: 253.0 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
ARIA attributes must conform to valid names (1 element)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid names: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical 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.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 2 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. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (12 characters)
Your title is only 12 characters: “Field Studio”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (266 characters)
Your meta description is 266 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
12 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 12 pages on fieldstudio.ca and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Field”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://fieldstudio.ca/.
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://fieldstudio.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 (257 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
/collections/current-site has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
/collections/current-site has 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.
5 internal pages checked
We fetched 5 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.
6 checks passed

Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
3 links through redirect chains
3 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://fieldstudio.ca/products/court-guitar-rack.
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 (fieldstudio.ca).
Valid certificate (50 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for fieldstudio.ca and is valid for another 50 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://fieldstudio.ca 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 14 links work
All 14 links checked from your homepage (8 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 5 days
fieldstudio.ca is registered until Nov 2026. If it lapses, the site and its email stop working and someone else can buy the name. Renew it, and turn on auto-renew.
No CAA record
fieldstudio.ca 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
fieldstudio.ca'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.
1 checks passed
Domain is 5 years old
5 yearsfieldstudio.ca was registered in Nov 2020 through Go Daddy Domains Canada, Inc. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
Only about 224 words
The homepage has only about 224 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SUBSCRIBE”.
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Subscribe”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
fieldstudio.ca has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.
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: 40/100
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 with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:secureserver.net -all”.
Privacy and tracking
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

1 checks passed
