Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 622 KiBAbout 622 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 612 KiB56 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (612 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 38
38/100Your mobile performance score is 38 (desktop: 61). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.8 s
A phone's processor spends 7.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.7 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/Doubleclick Ads, Google Tag Manager and confiant-integrations.net and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.
Google/Doubleclick Ads adds 470 ms
470 msGoogle/Doubleclick Ads costs a phone 470 ms of main-thread work and 560 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 388 ms
388 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 388 ms of main-thread work and 365 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 322 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
confiant-integrations.net adds 300 ms
300 msconfiant-integrations.net costs a phone 300 ms of main-thread work and 177 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 · 185 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 185 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
200 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 200 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
14 KiBAbout 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Duplicated JavaScript
12 KiB12 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Improve image delivery
11 KiB1 image could be 11 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.
Minify JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
