Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.7 s · 953 KiBAbout 953 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.0 s · 581 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (581 KiB).
Main-thread work: 12.1 s
A phone's processor spends 12.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 34
34/100Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
6,268 HTML elements
The page has 6,268 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, transcend-cdn.com and Facebook and others), adding 1.2 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.1 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 611 ms
611 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 611 ms of main-thread work and 678 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.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
transcend-cdn.com adds 347 ms
347 mstranscend-cdn.com costs a phone 347 ms of main-thread work and 161 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.
Facebook adds 287 ms
287 msFacebook costs a phone 287 ms of main-thread work and 248 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
150 ms · 45 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 45 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
147 KiB2 images could be 147 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1.61 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.61 g of CO₂e: 192.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

SEO
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Corporation, ItemList, VideoObject and WebPage) but with 1 problem, for example “Corporation: missing name”.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

Tap targets are thumb-sized
55 of 59 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
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.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 934 words of copy
The homepage carries about 934 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen

7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 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.
26 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 26 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
