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
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.7 s · 546 KiBAbout 546 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 40
40/100Your mobile performance score is 40 (desktop: 55). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.9 s
A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4,821 HTML elements
The page has 4,821 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 (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 904 ms
904 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 904 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 651 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 62 KiBAbout 62 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Google CDN adds 285 ms
285 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 285 ms of main-thread work and 734 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.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
1 checks passed
Server response: 422 ms
422 msYour server sent the HTML in 422 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: 10.3 s
10.3 sYour largest element takes 10.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Ask an expert on WhatsApp”.
Time to Interactive: 15.0 s
15.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 1.3 s
1.3 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 7.1 s
7.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user INP: 263 ms
263 msReal visitors wait 263 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user TTFB: 1.3 s
1.3 sReal visitors wait 1.3 s 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.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 12% slower for real visitors
+12%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 175 ms to 195 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.3 MB in 90 requests
2.3 MBYour homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 90 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (17), other files 598 KiB (35) and fonts 302 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
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: 79.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed

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.
1 form field without a label

54 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 54 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.
