Render-blocking requests
1.6 s28 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
500 ms · 78 KiB7 images could be 78 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 23 KiB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (23 KiB).
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, Google CDN and Shopify and others), adding 263 KiB and 341 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 27 KiBAbout 27 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 24 KiB24 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 104 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
14 KiBAbout 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 821 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.7 s
7.7 sYour largest element takes 7.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Speed Index: 6.7 s
6.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 7.7 s
7.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
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.
25 images without width and height
25 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.11
0.11The layout shifts by 0.11 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.5 s to 2.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
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.

Total Blocking Time: 77 ms
77 msScripts block the page for only 77 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (69 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.44 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.44 g of CO₂e: 53.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.6 MB in 170 requests
1.6 MBYour homepage downloads 1.6 MB in 170 requests on a phone: other files 715 KiB (78), images 404 KiB (30) and scripts 344 KiB (51). That is a lean page.
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
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
20 text elements with low contrast
20 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
12 tap targets too small
12 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
32 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: 32 passed and 16 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (66 characters)
Your title is 66 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Ghana Provisions | Shop Provisions for Family and Friends in Ghana”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is short (66 characters)
Your meta description is only 66 characters: “Ghana Provisions | Shop Provisions for Family and Friends in Ghana”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
89 internal links, 1 external
The homepage links to 89 pages on ghanaprovisions.com and 1 external page.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://ghanaprovisions.com/.
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://ghanaprovisions.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://ghanaprovisions.com/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.
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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (297 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://ghanaprovisions.com/pages/locations, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 28 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
6 checks passed

Best practices
7 small tap targets
7 of 26 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
2 low-resolution images
2 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
Only about 233 words
The homepage has only about 233 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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.
3 checks passed
14 calls to action
The homepage has 14 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “How To Buy” and “Buy Now!”.
19 short forms
19 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place

10 cookies set on arrival
10Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
