Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.0 s · 602 KiBAbout 602 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your mobile performance score is 47. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.5 s
A phone's processor spends 6.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4,953 HTML elements
The page has 4,953 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and others), adding 2.0 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 864 ms
864 msShopify costs a phone 864 ms of main-thread work and 793 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 164 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (164 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
600 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 135 KiBAbout 135 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
430 KiB6 images could be 430 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 326 ms
326 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 326 ms of main-thread work and 331 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.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 302 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Klaviyo adds 205 ms
205 msKlaviyo costs a phone 205 ms of main-thread work and 508 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.
Minify JavaScript
80 ms · 20 KiB20 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify CSS
10 ms · 14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.3 MB in 385 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 385 requests on a phone: scripts 2.1 MB (181), other files 903 KiB (149) and images 678 KiB (17). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
11_2025_IndexMobile_Holiday.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.21 g of CO₂e: 144.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
6 images without alt text
6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail 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.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (30 elements).

52 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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 (“FURB” and “FURB”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
153 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 153 pages on furb.com and 9 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 156 characters
Your meta description is 156 characters: “Shop fashionable, quality pet products with sustainability. Dog beds in modern prints, apparel for small to medium dogs…”.

AI search readiness

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 (838 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
/collections/thanksgiving-capsule, /collections/travel-essentials and /collections/sale have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 pages without an H1
/collections/best-pet-products, /collections/winter-dog-clothes, /collections/holiday-dog-gift-ideas, /collections/thanksgiving-capsule, /collections/nyc-collection and /collections/new-fall-pet-products and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
furb.com'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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 26 years old

Certificate issuers are restricted
