Speed

4 to fix63
  • Mobile performance score: 63

    63/100

    Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    937 KiB

    10 images could be 937 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    600 ms · 149 KiB

    About 149 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Klaviyo adds 255 ms

    255 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 255 ms of main-thread work and 611 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.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, nfcube.com and Shopify and others), adding 829 KiB and 309 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    200 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 200 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    120 ms · 26 KiB

    About 26 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 120 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    130 ms · 6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    100 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    100 ms · 13 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (13 KiB).

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 67 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 738 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix67
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 10.0 s

    10.0 s

    Your largest element takes 10.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 9.9 s

    9.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 10.1 s

    10.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 10.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 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
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 12 ms

    12 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 12 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix69
  • Page weight: 3.3 MB in 286 requests

    3.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 286 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (12), other files 1,019 KiB (158) and scripts 800 KiB (88). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    hero_image_for_edit.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).

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    245 KiB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example hero_image_for_edit.png at 1,800 px wide, shown at 354 px. Resized copies would save about 245 KiB.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.94 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.94 g of CO₂e: 112.9 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

3 to fixGoogle 9596
  • 4 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (2 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 48 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 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: 50 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10088
  • Title is short (25 characters)

    Your title is only 25 characters: “mdehaven.com – M. DeHaven”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 116 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 116 pages on havenboulder.com and 3 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 116 characters

    Your meta description is 116 characters: “Shop an ever-changing collection of clothing, jewelry, gifts, curated vintage and home furnishings as unique as you.”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and 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://mdehaven.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (379 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

1 to fix95
  • 11 pages without a meta description

    /collections/allies-birthday-picks, /collections/all-clothing, /collections/dresses, /collections/tops, /collections/bottoms and /collections/skirts and 5 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 94 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 96100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    14 of 15 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix86
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://mdehaven.com/collections/rings (404).

  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (mdehaven.com).

  • Valid certificate (34 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for havenboulder.com and is valid for another 34 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://havenboulder.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    mdehaven.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    mdehaven.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.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 1 year old

    1 year

    mdehaven.com was registered in Feb 2025 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Feb 2028

    mdehaven.com is registered until Feb 2028.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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 254 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 254 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP THE EDIT”.

  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Shop All”, “Shop All Home” and “Shop the edit”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

Email authentication

3 to fix25
  • No SPF record

    havenboulder.com has no SPF record, so mail servers can't tell which servers may send email as you. Your mail lands in spam more often, and anyone can send mail pretending to be you.

  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be havenboulder.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 25/100

    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.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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.

  • 9 cookies set on arrival

    9

    Opening the homepage sets 9 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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 3 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.

Apps your storefront loads

Smart Seo · Instafeed · Klaviyo Email Marketing Sms

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
