Google PageSpeed Insights (opens in a new tab), mobile
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.9 s · 370 KiBAbout 370 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 292 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (292 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 44
44/100Your mobile performance score is 44. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 5.8 s
A phone's processor spends 5.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 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 (Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Facebook and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
850 ms9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 461 ms
461 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 461 ms of main-thread work and 389 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.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 320 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Hotjar adds 290 ms
290 msHotjar costs a phone 290 ms of main-thread work and 65 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.
2,001 HTML elements
The page has 2,001 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 57 ms
57 msShopify costs a phone 57 ms of main-thread work and 415 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
50 ms · 31 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
12 KiBAbout 12 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 20.2 s
20.2 sYour largest element takes 20.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Low minimums, fast turnaround, and sustainable materials — …”.
Time to Interactive: 20.2 s
20.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 20.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 12.7 s
12.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 12.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 919 ms
919 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 919 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.
2 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s
1.1 sThe first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 318 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 318 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (99), other files 706 KiB (105) and images 354 KiB (82). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.84 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.84 g of CO₂e: 101.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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 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.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

Summary elements must have discernible text (1 element)

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 (9 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
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.
