Speed

9 to fix51
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 s · 907 KiB

    About 907 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 4.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4,276 HTML elements

    The page has 4,276 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 51

    51/100

    Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.6 MB and 684 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 333 ms

    333 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 333 ms of main-thread work and 778 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 CSS

    300 ms · 48 KiB

    About 48 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.

  • Shopify adds 193 ms

    193 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 193 ms of main-thread work and 470 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 · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 9 long tasks on the main thread

    9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 167 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 55 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (55 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    23 KiB

    1 image could be 23 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Server response: 23 ms

    23 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix50
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Your largest element takes 8.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Janus-header-norse-fw-26_mobile.jpg”.

  • Time to Interactive: 17.0 s

    17.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 17.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.6 s

    9.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 409 ms

    409 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 409 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.131

    0.131

    The layout shifts by 0.131 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.4 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 6.1 MB in 399 requests

    6.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.1 MB in 399 requests on a phone: images 3.0 MB (76), scripts 1.7 MB (72) and other files 1.1 MB (222). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.73 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.73 g of CO₂e: 207.4 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

6 to fixGoogle 8891
  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 3 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are 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 (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (31 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 31 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 51 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10091

  • 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.

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,019 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.januswool.se/llms.txt (24 KiB, 264 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

    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 2,609 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,609 words of visible text.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 9 trackers load before any consent

    9

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 4 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.

  • 20 cookies set on arrival

    20

    Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 34 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 34 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 januswool.se, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
