Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.3 s · 350 KiBAbout 350 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.2 s · 138 KiB14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (138 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 60
60/100Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Bazaarvoice and others), adding 962 KiB and 718 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 406 ms
406 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 406 ms of main-thread work and 496 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.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 197 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
80 ms · 60 KiBAbout 60 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 80 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
59 KiB7 images could be 59 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

Server response: 7 ms

Speed Index: 6.0 s

First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s
2.4 sThe first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 326 ms
326 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 326 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
7 images without width and height

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.1 MB in 157 requests
2.1 MBYour homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 157 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (48), other files 668 KiB (71) and images 189 KiB (25). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.60 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.60 g of CO₂e: 72.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Content and conversion
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 direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage has only about 10 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
4 checks passed
