Speed

10 to fix63
  • 4,279 HTML elements

    The page has 4,279 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 4.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.6 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 (loox.io, homrest.com and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 63

    63/100

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

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 528 KiB

    About 528 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 468 KiB

    22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (468 KiB).

  • loox.io adds 266 ms

    266 ms

    loox.io costs a phone 266 ms of main-thread work and 27 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.

  • seel.com adds 114 ms

    114 ms

    seel.com costs a phone 114 ms of main-thread work and 405 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.

  • Shopify adds 78 ms

    78 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 78 ms of main-thread work and 353 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.

  • xcottons.com adds 74 ms

    74 ms

    xcottons.com costs a phone 74 ms of main-thread work and 308 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 · 52 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 52 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 162 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 5 KiB

    1 image could be 5 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    39 KiB

    About 39 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Server response: 132 ms

    132 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 132 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix62
  • Time to Interactive: 20.0 s

    20.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 20.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

    Your largest element takes 6.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “homrest”.

  • Speed Index: 5.4 s

    5.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 293 ms

    293 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 293 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.2 MB in 265 requests

    3.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 265 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (122), HTML 281 KiB (7) and fonts 256 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.90 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.90 g of CO₂e: 107.5 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

9 to fixGoogle 8588
  • 7 tap targets too small

    7 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (12 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • 18 text elements with low contrast

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

  • ARIA input fields do not have accessible names

    ARIA input fields do not have accessible names (1 element).

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h3 → h6 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (13 elements).

1 checks passed
  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 6974
  • Title is long (74 characters)

    Your title is 74 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Shop Homrest for home office chairs, recliners, and modern home furniture.”.

  • Meta description is long (161 characters)

    Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://homrest.com)”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 273 internal links, 14 external

    The homepage links to 273 pages on homrest.us and 14 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.homrest.us/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.homrest.us/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://www.homrest.us/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

4 to fix68
  • 1 page without a title

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

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

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

  • 9 pages without a meta description

    https://www.homrest.us/pages/contact-us, https://www.homrest.us/customer_authentication/redirect, https://www.homrest.us/collections/office-furniture, https://www.homrest.us/collections/makeup-vanities-tables, https://www.homrest.us/collections/nightstands and https://www.homrest.us/collections/baby-kids-furniture and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.homrest.us/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    https://www.homrest.us/customer_authentication/redirect, https://www.homrest.us/collections/nightstands and https://www.homrest.us/collections/sofas-sectionals-loveseats took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 107 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    14 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 4286
  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 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 404 ()”.

  • Pasting is blocked

    A form field blocks pasting, which frustrates password managers and people on phones.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    24 of 26 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix72
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 16 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • Only about 56 words

    The homepage has only about 56 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • Urgency cues

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

5 checks passed
  • 14 calls to action

    The homepage has 14 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Sign in/ Register” and “Shop All Products”.

  • 25 short forms

    25 short forms (3 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Microsoft Clarity and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

  • 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

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 10 cookies set on arrival

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies, 6 of them by other companies (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.

  • 17 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 17 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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