Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.1 s · 619 KiBAbout 619 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.1 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.4 s · 417 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (417 KiB).
Improve image delivery
1.1 s · 400 KiB3 images could be 400 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 4.0 s
A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. 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 CDN, Shopify and omnisnippet1.com and others), adding 1.5 MB and 798 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
600 ms13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.
Shopify adds 275 ms
275 msShopify costs a phone 275 ms of main-thread work and 842 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.
Google CDN adds 286 ms
286 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 286 ms of main-thread work and 365 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.
2,974 HTML elements
The page has 2,974 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 177 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
154 KiBAbout 154 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify CSS
24 KiB24 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Duplicated JavaScript
16 KiB16 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Minify JavaScript
14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.

0.061The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.061, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 259 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 259 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (104), other files 931 KiB (117) and images 679 KiB (11). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
LowSidewallCover.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image far larger than shown
83 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example LowSidewallCover.png at 1,800 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 83 KiB.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.08 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.08 g of CO₂e: 129.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
Invalid ARIA attributes
6 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
22 tap targets too small
22 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
7 text elements with low contrast
7 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
6 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (44 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 44 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
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.
12 form fields without a label
12 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.
1 checks passed
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 10 failed. 4 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 (“Grower's Solution” and “Search”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (316 characters)
Your meta description is 316 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
218 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 218 pages on growerssolution.com and 3 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 52 characters
Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “Growers Solution Official Site - Greenhouse Supplies”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://growerssolution.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: 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://growerssolution.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 (1,108 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://growerssolution.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
https://growerssolution.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://growerssolution.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
14 pages without a meta description
https://growerssolution.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://growerssolution.com/collections/containers, https://growerssolution.com/collections/film-shade, https://growerssolution.com/collections/plants, https://growerssolution.com/collections/irrigation and https://growerssolution.com/collections/home-garden and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://growerssolution.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 158 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed

Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.
About 555 words of copy
The homepage carries about 555 words of visible text.
Urgency cues
The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).
6 checks passed

Privacy and tracking

7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
24 cookies set on arrival
24Opening the homepage sets 24 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
44 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 44 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
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 growerssolution.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
