Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.2 s · 776 KiBAbout 776 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.2 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.7 s17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.7 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 225 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (225 KiB).
Main-thread work: 4.1 s
A phone's processor spends 4.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 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 (alia-prod.com, Wistia and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
350 ms · 168 KiB5 images could be 168 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
alia-prod.com adds 428 ms
428 msalia-prod.com costs a phone 428 ms of main-thread work and 313 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 177 ms
177 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 177 ms of main-thread work and 446 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.
1,922 HTML elements
The page has 1,922 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
rebuyengine.com adds 114 ms
114 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 114 ms of main-thread work and 300 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.
Shopify adds 66 ms
66 msShopify costs a phone 66 ms of main-thread work and 353 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 46 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 46 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 156 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
18 KiBAbout 18 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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: 3.9 MB in 429 requests
3.9 MBYour homepage downloads 3.9 MB in 429 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (112), other files 1.3 MB (261) and images 361 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.11 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.11 g of CO₂e: 133.4 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
11 form fields without a label
11 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 8 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 0 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “A real fire.Anywhere.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (172 characters)
Your meta description is 172 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
23 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 23 pages on floatingflame.com and 13 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 45 characters
Your title is a healthy 45 characters: “Floating Flame | The Only Fire Pit For Boats!”.

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://floatingflame.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 checks passed

Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (739 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://floatingflame.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://floatingflame.com/pages/dealers and https://floatingflame.com/pages/warranty have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

11 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
A 10-field form
Your longest form asks for 10 fields (5 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
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 229 words
The homepage has only about 229 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

9 calls to action
The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Shop now”, “SHOP” and “CONTACT”.
Analytics in place

27Opening the homepage sets 27 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
