Speed

11 to fix74
  • Improve image delivery

    800 ms · 481 KiB

    6 images could be 481 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    642 KiB

    About 642 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Render-blocking requests

    550 ms

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, rechargecdn.com and bayengage.com and others), adding 1.5 MB and 269 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 50 KiB

    About 50 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 612 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1,564 HTML elements

    The page has 1,564 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Shopify adds 84 ms

    84 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 84 ms of main-thread work and 567 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.

  • bayengage.com adds 45 ms

    45 ms

    bayengage.com costs a phone 45 ms of main-thread work and 507 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.

  • rechargecdn.com adds 64 ms

    64 ms

    rechargecdn.com costs a phone 64 ms of main-thread work and 298 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.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    138 KiB

    12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (138 KiB).

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 79 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    24 KiB

    24 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • Time to Interactive: 12.0 s

    12.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 12.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.0 s

    5.0 s

    Your largest element takes 5.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Halo Beauty Flora vaginal probiotic — Daily Balance From Wi…”.

  • Tap response (INP) got 57% slower for real visitors

    +57%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 104 ms to 165 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 23% slower for real visitors

    +23%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.5 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.105

    0.105

    The layout shifts by 0.105 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.8 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.

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors wait 2.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 167 ms

    167 ms

    Real visitors wait 167 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 589 ms

    589 ms

    Real visitors wait 589 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 16 ms

    16 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 16 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix69
  • Page weight: 3.7 MB in 271 requests

    3.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 271 requests on a phone: images 1.4 MB (18), scripts 1.2 MB (119) and other files 806 KiB (110). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    hb-britemind-hero-silk.jpg 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

    54 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example hb-britemind-hero-silk.jpg at 1,916 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 54 KiB.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.05 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.05 g of CO₂e: 125.4 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

6 to fixGoogle 9691
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    4 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 58 text elements with low contrast

    58 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 4 tap targets too small

    4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Hidden but focusable

    3 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 links without text

    2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 46 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10085
  • Title is short (25 characters)

    Your title is only 25 characters: “HALO BEAUTY – Halo Beauty”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 4 H1 headlines

    There are 4 <h1> headlines (“Halo Beauty”, “The gloweveryone asks about.” and “One subscription.Two kinds of care.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 157 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 157 pages on halobeauty.com and 3 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 160 characters

    Your meta description is 160 characters: “Halo Beauty: clean, vegan supplements for hair, skin, and nail health. Inside-out beauty crafted with high-quality ingr…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://halobeauty.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • 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://halobeauty.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://halobeauty.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 (1,493 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 37 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    2 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 2 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 2 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://sf.bayengage.com/be.css' from origin 'https://halobeauty.com' has been blocked by …”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    34 of 40 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • 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.

  • 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 649 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 649 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP BESTSELLERS” and “START MY SUBSCRIPTION”.

  • 12 calls to action

    The homepage has 12 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Shop Bestsellers” and “Start My Subscription”.

  • 33 short forms

    33 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 7 testimonial or review blocks, a star rating, 1 trust badge and “1M+ Customers”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Pinterest Tag and 1 more (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

    24

    Opening the homepage sets 24 cookies (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.

  • 29 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 29 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 halobeauty.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
