Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.8 s · 406 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (406 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 375 KiBAbout 375 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
3,688 HTML elements
The page has 3,688 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 71 KiBAbout 71 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
517 KiB29 images could be 517 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Main-thread work: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Pinterest and shgcdn3.com and others), adding 495 KiB and 217 ms of main-thread time.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 162 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
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: 9 ms
9 msYour server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.7 s
12.7 sYour largest element takes 12.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Grape and Whiskey”.
First Contentful Paint: 4.8 s
4.8 sThe first text or image appears after 4.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 13.0 s
13.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.8 s
8.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
12 images without width and height
12 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 108 ms
108 msScripts block the page for only 108 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.0 MB in 413 requests
5.0 MBYour homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 413 requests on a phone: images 3.2 MB (275), other files 753 KiB (79) and scripts 742 KiB (36). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
27 images below the first screen load straight away
27 images further down the page (822 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images far larger than shown
72 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example beerbod-mens-short-sleeve-t-shirt-crew-neck-dtg-clothing-new at 800 px wide, shown at 180 px. Resized copies would save about 72 KiB.
3 images in older formats
3 images (177 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.
About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.41 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.41 g of CO₂e: 169.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (10 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 59 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 63 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 15 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (86 characters)
Your title is 86 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Grape + Whiskey | Beverage, Bar & Wineware | Wine Tumblers, Shirts – Grape and Whiskey”.
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 (“” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (320 characters)
Your meta description is 320 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
9 links crawlers can't follow
9 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
232 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 232 pages on grapeandwhiskey.com and 5 external pages.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://grapeandwhiskey.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://grapeandwhiskey.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.
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 (1,101 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://grapeandwhiskey.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://grapeandwhiskey.com/app/trackor, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.
About 1,286 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,286 words of visible text.
4 checks passed

9 cookies set on arrival
9Opening the homepage sets 9 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at grapeandwhiskey.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
