Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.8 s · 2.7 MB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.7 MB).
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 1.8 MB8 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 131 KiBAbout 131 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.
Render-blocking requests
600 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 338 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
1 third-party service on the page
1 third-party service load with your homepage (gabbcloud.com), adding 1.2 MB and 0 ms of main-thread time.
gabbcloud.com adds 0 ms
0 msgabbcloud.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 MB 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
150 ms · 43 KiBAbout 43 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.2 s
A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 553 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 35 ms
35 msYour server sent the HTML in 35 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.9 s
13.9 sYour largest element takes 13.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Children running in a field”.
Time to Interactive: 14.1 s
14.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.2 s
7.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user FCP: 1.9 s
1.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 835 ms
835 msReal visitors wait 835 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s
2.6 sThe first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 316 ms
316 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 316 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
3 images without width and height
3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 16% slower for real visitors
+16%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 154 ms to 178 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real-user INP: 184 ms
184 msReal visitors wait 184 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user CLS: 0.05
0.05For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.05 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Largest content (LCP) got 40% faster for real visitors
-40%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.9 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.3 MB in 60 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 60 requests on a phone: images 2.4 MB (12), other files 1.2 MB (6) and scripts 307 KiB (26). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
os2-gw3e-primary.png weighs 575 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
2 images in older formats
2 images (803 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.
1 image far larger than shown
291 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example os2-gw3e-primary.png at 1,024 px wide, shown at 240 px. Resized copies would save about 291 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (35 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
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.
Accessibility
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
39 links without text
39 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 11 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Gabb: Safer phones for kids” and “Gabb: Safer phones for kids”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (161 characters)
Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
6 links with vague text
6 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
4 links crawlers can't follow
4 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
112 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 112 pages on gabb.com and 12 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 30 characters
Your title is a healthy 30 characters: “Phones for Kids & Teens | Gabb”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://gabb.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, FAQPage, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
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://gabb.com/sitemap-index.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,655 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /support/phone, whose canonical is /support/en/collections/12627474-gabb-phone. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
2 pages without an H1
/accessories and /app-guide have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
3 pages with very little text
/support/phone, /accessories and /support/watch have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 46 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed

Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
No clickjacking protection
Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
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.
