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
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.7 s
A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 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 (Shopify, Hotjar and rebuyengine.com and others), adding 1.9 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
953 KiBAbout 953 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 119 KiBAbout 119 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Shopify adds 336 ms
336 msShopify costs a phone 336 ms of main-thread work and 694 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
50 ms · 297 KiB22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (297 KiB).
rebuyengine.com adds 138 ms
138 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 138 ms of main-thread work and 342 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.
1,698 HTML elements
The page has 1,698 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
15 long tasks on the main thread
15 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 208 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
98 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 98 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
21 KiB21 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.
Minify CSS
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.0 MB in 282 requests
4.0 MBYour homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 282 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (136), other files 816 KiB (105) and images 407 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.15 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.15 g of CO₂e: 137.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Form elements should have a visible label (1 element)
Form elements should have a visible label: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (7 elements)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 11 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
4 H1 headlines
There are 4 <h1> headlines (“”, “The Last Frame You'll Ever Need.” and “The Last Frame You'll Ever Need.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (226 characters)
Your meta description is 226 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
146 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 146 pages on helmandoar.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
Title: 49 characters
Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “One Frame. Endless Possibility. – H E L M + O A R”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://helmandoar.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
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://helmandoar.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: 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 (757 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://helmandoar.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://helmandoar.com/apps/help-center and https://helmandoar.com/apps/wishlist all use the title “H E L M + O A R”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
9 pages without a meta description
https://helmandoar.com/collections/frontpage, https://helmandoar.com/pages/quality-materials, https://helmandoar.com/pages/endless-frame-how-to, https://helmandoar.com/pages/reviews, https://helmandoar.com/pages/hospitality and https://helmandoar.com/apps/help-center and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://helmandoar.com/collections/three-piece-collection, whose canonical is https://helmandoar.com/collections/https-helmandoar-com-collections-three-piece-collection-view-three-piece-sets. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
14 pages without an H1
https://helmandoar.com/collections/frontpage, https://helmandoar.com/pages/our-story, https://helmandoar.com/pages/quality-materials, https://helmandoar.com/pages/endless-frame-how-to, https://helmandoar.com/pages/reviews and https://helmandoar.com/pages/hospitality and 8 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
14 pages with very little text
https://helmandoar.com/collections/frontpage, https://helmandoar.com/pages/our-story, https://helmandoar.com/pages/quality-materials, https://helmandoar.com/pages/endless-frame-how-to, https://helmandoar.com/pages/reviews and https://helmandoar.com/pages/hospitality and 8 others have 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.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 61 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed

23 of 28 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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 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 430 words of copy
The homepage carries about 430 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: “Join For Club Pricing – Tap Here!” and “SHOP BEST SELLERS”.
23 calls to action

Privacy and tracking

8Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 3 mores (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.
25 cookies set on arrival
25Opening the homepage sets 25 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

48 other companies contacted

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