Speed

5 to fix76
  • Mobile performance score: 76

    76/100

    Your mobile performance score is 76. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    600 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    100 ms · 442 KiB

    7 images could be 442 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1,889 HTML elements

    The page has 1,889 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Shopify adds 79 ms

    79 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 79 ms of main-thread work and 895 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    244 KiB

    About 244 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Judge.me and shop.app), adding 905 KiB and 79 ms of main-thread time.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 53 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    11 KiB

    About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    6 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6 KiB).

  • 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, 500 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix69
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.351

    0.351

    The layout shifts by 0.351 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.4 s

    8.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Your largest element takes 3.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.1 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 2 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix67
  • Page weight: 2.7 MB in 307 requests

    2.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 307 requests on a phone: other files 1.1 MB (160), scripts 659 KiB (93) and images 566 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.75 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.75 g of CO₂e: 90.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 9790
  • Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used (1 element)

    Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 20 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 23 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 20 passed and 3 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10083
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is long (72 characters)

    Your title is 72 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Organic Elderberry Syrup & Botanical Skincare – Vitamin Bee Wellness Co.”.

  • 43 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 43 pages on hellovitaminbee.com and 13 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 140 characters

    Your meta description is 140 characters: “Small-batch elderberry syrup, botanical skincare, and herbal wellness crafted in Bluffton, SC. Made with real ingredien…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://hellovitaminbee.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://hellovitaminbee.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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.

  • 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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://hellovitaminbee.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

5 to fix43
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://hellovitaminbee.com/collections/346624983197, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 1 page without a title

    https://hellovitaminbee.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://hellovitaminbee.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://hellovitaminbee.com/collections/subscribe-save, https://hellovitaminbee.com/collections/all and https://hellovitaminbee.com/customer_authentication/redirect have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://hellovitaminbee.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 23 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed
  • 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.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10092
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 429 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • 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.

  • Only about 10 words

    The homepage has only about 10 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

4 checks passed
  • 9 calls to action

    The homepage has 9 calls to action, for example “Subscribe & Save 15% on your favorites”, “Order by Dec 15 for Christmas delivery” and “SHOP”.

  • 7 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block and a star rating.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 1 other company contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 1 host run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 hellovitaminbee.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
