forcustomssake.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 480 KiBAbout 480 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.8 s · 358 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (358 KiB).
Improve image delivery
400 ms · 1.6 MB11 images could be 1.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 60
60/100Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, dripappsserver.com and JSDelivr CDN and others), adding 1.2 MB and 657 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 413 ms
413 msShopify costs a phone 413 ms of main-thread work and 768 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.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Main-thread work: 2.9 s
A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 877 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 262 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
dripappsserver.com adds 166 ms
166 msdripappsserver.com costs a phone 166 ms of main-thread work and 338 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.
Reduce unused CSS
144 KiBAbout 144 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.8 s

Time to Interactive: 15.3 s
15.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.1 s

First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

Total Blocking Time: 297 ms
297 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 297 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
5 images without width and height
5 images 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002
0.002The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.2 MB in 230 requests
4.2 MBYour homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 230 requests on a phone: images 2.0 MB (16), scripts 1.2 MB (111) and other files 630 KiB (61). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images far larger than shown
1.2 MB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 471364038_10160997165629226_4751330018369329211_n.jpg at 1,510 px wide, shown at 296 px. Resized copies would save about 1.2 MB.
4 images in older formats
4 images (979 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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.20 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.20 g of CO₂e: 144.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
32 text elements with low contrast
32 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
16 images without alt text
16 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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.
16 links without text
16 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

45 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: 45 passed and 6 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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 phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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.
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.
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 1,337 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,337 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be forcustomssake.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
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: 65/100
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.
