Google PageSpeed Insights (opens in a new tab), mobile
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 87
87/100Your mobile performance score is 87. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 66 KiB and 14 ms of main-thread time.
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.
Improve image delivery
5 KiB1 image could be 5 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1 KiB).
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.5 s
A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 158 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.1 s
4.1 sYour largest element takes 4.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Flow Waterjet NX PRO CNC water cutting machine”.
Time to Interactive: 4.1 s
4.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
4 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002
0.002The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s
0.9 sThe first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Speed Index: 1.8 s
1.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 1.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.38 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.38 g of CO₂e: 45.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 192 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 192 requests on a phone: other files 800 KiB (104), images 198 KiB (23) and scripts 167 KiB (38). That is a lean page.
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
4 text elements with low contrast
4 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 checks passed
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (12 characters)
Your title is only 12 characters: “Flowparts.uk”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
40 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 40 pages on flowparts.uk and 10 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://flowparts.uk/.
Structured data in place

AI search readiness
4 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 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 (327 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://flowparts.uk/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
7 pages without a meta description
https://flowparts.uk/pages/create-account, https://flowparts.uk/collections/all, https://flowparts.uk/pages/contact-us, https://flowparts.uk/pages/express-order, https://flowparts.uk/pages/favorites and https://flowparts.uk/collections/mixing-tubes and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
13 pages without an H1
https://flowparts.uk/pages/create-account, https://flowparts.uk/collections/all, https://flowparts.uk/pages/express-order, https://flowparts.uk/pages/favorites, https://flowparts.uk/pages/parts-compatibility and https://flowparts.uk/pages/orifices and 7 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
