Speed

4 to fix93
  • 5,540 HTML elements

    The page has 5,540 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Render-blocking requests

    900 ms

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    352 KiB

    11 images could be 352 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Main-thread work: 2.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 705 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Heroku and others), adding 417 KiB and 335 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 16 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (16 KiB).

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 58 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    50 KiB

    50 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    20 KiB

    About 20 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    14 KiB

    About 14 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

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    -16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 85 ms to 71 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

  • Total Blocking Time: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 4 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 2.4 MB in 239 requests

    2.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 239 requests on a phone: images 963 KiB (48), other files 746 KiB (91) and scripts 488 KiB (75). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    National_Day_of_the_Cowboy26-WebBanner.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.69 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.69 g of CO₂e: 82.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9796
  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 12 links without text

    12 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 89 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10095
  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 259 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 259 pages on jaxgoods.com and 8 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 88 characters

    Your meta description is 88 characters: “JAX Mercantile Co. is your local destination for outdoor gear, farm, and ranch supplies.”.

  • Title: 59 characters

    Your title is a healthy 59 characters: “JAX Outdoor Gear, Farm & Ranch – JAXOutdoorGearFarmandRanch”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://jaxgoods.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://jaxgoods.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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 (1,779 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://jaxgoods.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

6 to fix62
  • 1 page without a title

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

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

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

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://jaxgoods.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://jaxgoods.com/collections/camping-and-hiking, https://jaxgoods.com/collections/abrasives-1 and https://jaxgoods.com/collections/matador-new-for-2026 have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 8 pages share a meta description

    https://jaxgoods.com/collections/matador-new-for-2026/products/matador-tote-pack-24l-juniper, https://jaxgoods.com/collections/matador-new-for-2026/products/matador-tote-pack-24l-garnet and https://jaxgoods.com/collections/matador-new-for-2026/products/matador-tote-pack-24l-black use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 9 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 9 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://jaxgoods.com/collections/matador-new-for-2026/products/matador-tote-pack-24l-juniper, whose canonical is https://jaxgoods.com/products/matador-tote-pack-24l-juniper. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

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

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 95 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    142 of 145 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix58
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 1,174 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,174 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Shop now!”, “Start shopping” and “Contact”.

  • 8 short forms

    8 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo (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.

  • 9 cookies set on arrival

    9

    Opening the homepage sets 9 cookies (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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 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 jaxgoods.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 3 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
