Mobile performance score: 76
76/100Your mobile performance score is 76. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 54 KiB1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (54 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 68 KiBAbout 68 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, vercel.app and unsplash.com and others), adding 269 KiB and 202 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 106 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
25 KiBAbout 25 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Improve image delivery
6 KiB1 image could be 6 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.

First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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

Total Blocking Time: 56 ms
