Render-blocking requests
2.0 s14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.0 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
700 ms · 602 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (602 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
980 ms · 125 KiBAbout 125 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 980 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
550 ms · 195 KiB5 images could be 195 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 550 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 144 KiBAbout 144 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Klaviyo and others), adding 462 KiB and 529 ms of main-thread time.
Minify CSS
300 ms · 27 KiB27 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Main-thread work: 2.1 s
A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s 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 180 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
30 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 30 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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
Time to Interactive: 11.6 s
11.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 11.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.3 s
5.3 sYour largest element takes 5.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.307
0.307The layout shifts by 0.307 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
First Contentful Paint: 2.5 s
2.5 sThe first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.6 s
4.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
17 images without width and height
17 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.
1 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 109 ms
109 msScripts block the page for only 109 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.3 MB in 166 requests
2.3 MBYour homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 166 requests on a phone: other files 724 KiB (78), images 698 KiB (17) and scripts 618 KiB (51). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (562 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 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.66 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.66 g of CO₂e: 78.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
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
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
27 text elements with low contrast
27 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
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.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings should not be empty (2 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
40 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: 40 passed and 11 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (68 characters)
Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Official Frank Thomas Store | Frank Thomas Shirts, Tanks | 500 LEVEL”.
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 (229 characters)
Your meta description is 229 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
52 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 52 pages on frankthomas35.com and 5 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://frankthomas35.com/.
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://frankthomas35.com/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 (240 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://frankthomas35.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://frankthomas35.com/pages/contact-us, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
14 pages without a meta description
https://frankthomas35.com/collections/men/style-mens-baseball-t-shirt, https://frankthomas35.com/collections/men/style-mens-cotton-t-shirt, https://frankthomas35.com/collections/men/style-mens-hoodie, https://frankthomas35.com/collections/men/style-mens-long-sleeve-t-shirt, https://frankthomas35.com/collections/men/style-mens-premium-t-shirt and https://frankthomas35.com/collections/women/style-womens-tank-top and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Best practices
1 broken image
1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=97201169&tm=gtm002&Ver=2&mid=cc52077d-242d-432f-94be-a42eebc51d96&bo=1&sid=a7d9f870df5211f18da319d283c7b340&vid=a7d9fb00df5211f193b02d094c5ee17e&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=91.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
15 of 16 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 159 words
The homepage has only about 159 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
4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact Us” and “Sign Up”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Privacy and tracking
7 trackers load before any consent
7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amazon Ads, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and 2 mores (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.
14 cookies set on arrival
14Opening the homepage sets 14 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.
26 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 26 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at frankthomas35.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.
