Speed

4 to fix79
  • Mobile performance score: 79

    79/100

    Your mobile performance score is 79. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    600 ms · 86 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (86 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 84 KiB

    About 84 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 7 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 7 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 69 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 160 KiB and 28 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    20 ms · 11 KiB

    About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 20 ms faster on a phone.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 415 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix78
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    Your largest element takes 4.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Corgi in a Pocket”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 19 ms

    19 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 19 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.38 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.38 g of CO₂e: 45.4 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 143 requests

    1.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 143 requests on a phone: other files 763 KiB (95), scripts 347 KiB (33) and fonts 145 KiB (5). 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

3 to fixGoogle 9396
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 2 form fields without a label

    2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 5 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 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 2 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10087
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Friends in a Pocket” and “Corgi in a Pocket”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 15 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 15 pages on friendsinapocket.com and 4 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 112 characters

    Your meta description is 112 characters: “Ever wished to carry a little friendly animal with you all day? Say no more and look at our pocket of the month!”.

  • Title: 41 characters

    Your title is a healthy 41 characters: “Friends in a pocket – Friends in a Pocket”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://maxity.ca/.

  • 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://maxity.ca/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.

2 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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

100
  • 2 internal pages checked

    We fetched 2 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 2 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 2 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 2 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 10087
  • 3 small tap targets

    3 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Error producing monorail event MonorailRequestError: Error completing request. A network failure may have prevented the…”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://maxity.ca/products/corgi-in-a-pocket.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (maxity.ca).

  • Valid certificate (45 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for friendsinapocket.com and is valid for another 45 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://friendsinapocket.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 11 links work

    All 11 links checked from your homepage (8 internal, 3 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    maxity.ca has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    maxity.ca's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 10 years old

    10 years

    maxity.ca was registered in Oct 2016 through Tucows.com Co.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    maxity.ca is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

6 to fix43
  • 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.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • A 10-field form

    Your longest form asks for 10 fields (0 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 85 words

    The homepage has only about 85 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.

1 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Subscribe”.

Email authentication

2 to fix60
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be friendsinapocket.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: 60/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.hostedemail.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.

Apps your storefront loads

printful.com

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
