Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
6.0 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.9 s · 504 KiB39 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (504 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.5 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.8 s
A phone's processor spends 7.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.2 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 (alia-prod.com, loox.io and Bold Commerce and others), adding 1.7 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 527 KiB17 images could be 527 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
alia-prod.com adds 536 ms
536 msalia-prod.com costs a phone 536 ms of main-thread work and 264 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.
Legacy JavaScript
400 ms · 81 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 81 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 106 KiBAbout 106 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 377 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Bold Commerce adds 335 ms
335 msBold Commerce costs a phone 335 ms of main-thread work and 256 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.
loox.io adds 357 ms
357 msloox.io costs a phone 357 ms of main-thread work and 28 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.
runconverge.com adds 250 ms
250 msrunconverge.com costs a phone 250 ms of main-thread work and 245 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.
1,985 HTML elements
The page has 1,985 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 145 ms
145 msKlaviyo costs a phone 145 ms of main-thread work and 341 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.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 12 KiB12 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
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.
Minify JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

6.5 MBYour homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 442 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (128), images 2.0 MB (64) and other files 1.4 MB (214). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 6 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (227 characters)
Your meta description is 227 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 2 problems
Structured data found (Organization, WebPage and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “WebSite: potentialAction.target is not an absolute URL ("/search?q={search_term_string}")”.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
210 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 210 pages on hanksbelts.com and 4 external pages.
6 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Hanks Belts”.
Title: 35 characters
Your title is a healthy 35 characters: “Hanks Belts - Leather Belts for Men”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.hanksbelts.com/.
Open Graph tags complete

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://www.hanksbelts.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,355 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
9 pages without a meta description
/collections/mens-belts, /collections/mens-function-wear-leather-belts, /collections/mens-leather-all-wear-belts, /collections/mens-leather-dress-wear-belts, /collections/womens-leather-function-wear-belts and /collections/womens-leather-all-wear-belts and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
8 pages without an H1
/collections/mens-belts, /collections/mens-function-wear-leather-belts, /collections/mens-leather-all-wear-belts, /collections/mens-leather-dress-wear-belts, /collections/full-grain-bison-leather-belts-for-men and /collections/mens-western-belt and 2 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
/collections/womens-leather-all-wear-belts has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

hanksbelts.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
3 checks passed

Registered until Apr 2027
hanksbelts.com is registered until Apr 2027.
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.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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 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.
About 896 words of copy
The homepage carries about 896 words of visible text.
6 checks passed

Email authentication score: 80/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all”.
Privacy and tracking
10 trackers load before any consent
