Speed

12 to fix33
  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 s · 923 KiB

    18 images could be 923 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.7 s

    12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.7 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 33

    33/100

    Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 4,811 HTML elements

    The page has 4,811 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 4.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 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 CDN, Google Tag Manager and Intercom and others), adding 1.0 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    370 ms · 501 KiB

    About 501 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 370 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 111 KiB

    About 111 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 471 ms

    471 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 471 ms of main-thread work and 492 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 Tag Manager adds 357 ms

    357 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 357 ms of main-thread work and 191 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.

  • Intercom adds 303 ms

    303 ms

    Intercom costs a phone 303 ms of main-thread work and 233 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.

  • 18 long tasks on the main thread

    18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 315 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    70 ms · 9 KiB

    9 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    69 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (69 KiB).

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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: 23 ms

    23 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 15.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.7 s

    6.7 s

    Your largest element takes 6.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “ET2 Lighting Stormy-Multi-Light Pendant – E20497-MPLT”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 885 ms

    885 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 885 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 6.5 s

    6.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.284

    0.284

    The layout shifts by 0.284 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

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

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.4 s

2 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

Images and page weight

3 to fix55
  • 5 images far larger than shown

    545 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example E20497-MPLT_07ce0586-76a8-4375-8954-6109e29d65b0.jpg at 3,000 px wide, shown at 337 px. Resized copies would save about 545 KiB.

  • Page weight: 2.7 MB in 83 requests

    2.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 83 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (22), scripts 1.2 MB (39) and stylesheets 136 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (902 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 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.76 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.76 g of CO₂e: 91.4 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

9 to fixGoogle 9191
  • Frames without titles

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

  • Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)

    Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Contentinfo landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one main landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 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.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 26 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 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 9 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9293
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“FixtureFarm — Designer Lighting” and “ET2 Lighting / Stormy-Multi-Light Pendant”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 2 links with vague text

    2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1,113 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 1,113 pages on fixturefarm.com and 0 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 140 characters

    Your meta description is 140 characters: “Explore designer lighting, sculptural chandeliers, pendants, wall sconces, fans, and commercial fixtures from leading b…”.

  • Title: 56 characters

    Your title is a healthy 56 characters: “FixtureFarm — Designer Lighting Fixtures for Every Space”.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no /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: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (4,214 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 1 page slow to respond

    /collections took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 197 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices

Google 96100
  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

3 checks passed

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix93
  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • 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.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (fixturefarm.com).

  • Valid certificate (35 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WR1 verifies for fixturefarm.com and is valid for another 35 days.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://fixturefarm.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 40 links work

    All 40 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 0 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    fixturefarm.com 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

    fixturefarm.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.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 16 years old

    16 years

    fixturefarm.com was registered in Aug 2010 through Squarespace Domains II LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Aug 2027

    fixturefarm.com is registered until Aug 2027.

Content and conversion

1 to fix83
  • 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 risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

  • About 380 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 380 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 20 calls to action

  • 3 short forms

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be fixturefarm.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • 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)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:_spf.wpcloud.com ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 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.

  • 17 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 17 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
