Speed

11 to fix53
  • 10,545 HTML elements

    The page has 10,545 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 5.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.7 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 (Klaviyo, posthog.com and Shopify and others), adding 2.1 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 53

    53/100

    Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 545 KiB

    12 images could be 545 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.

  • Klaviyo adds 485 ms

    485 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 485 ms of main-thread work and 552 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.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 364 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    340 KiB

    About 340 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Shopify adds 195 ms

    195 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 195 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 MB 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    291 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (291 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    58 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 58 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    15 KiB

    15 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 21 ms

    21 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 21 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 16.1 s

    16.1 s

    Your largest element takes 16.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “FEEL IT. HEAR IT. GIFT IT. FEEL ALIVE THIS SEASON SHOP NOW”.

  • Time to Interactive: 27.1 s

    27.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 27.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.3 s

    8.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.0 s

    2.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 872 ms

    872 ms

    Real visitors wait 872 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • 73 images without width and height

    73 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Total Blocking Time: 537 ms

    537 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 537 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 15% slower for real visitors

    +15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 143 ms to 168 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -7%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 2.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 191 ms

    191 ms

    Real visitors wait 191 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • 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.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.047

    0.047

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.047, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 6.6 MB in 527 requests

    6.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.6 MB in 527 requests on a phone: images 3.6 MB (178), scripts 1.4 MB (177) and other files 910 KiB (115). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.88 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.88 g of CO₂e: 225.4 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

3 to fixGoogle 9796
  • 11 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 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.

  • 7 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 465 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 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 9274
  • Title is long (68 characters)

    Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “JLab: True Wireless Headphones, Earbuds, Microphones, Personal Audio”.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • Meta description is long (206 characters)

    Your meta description is 206 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 2 links with vague text

    2 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.

  • 653 internal links, 31 external

    The homepage links to 653 pages on jlabaudio.com and 31 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.jlab.com/.

  • 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://www.jlab.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.jlab.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,084 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix85
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.jlab.com/pages/shipping-faq has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.jlab.com/products/go-pop-plus-true-wireless-earbuds-pink, whose canonical is https://www.jlab.com/products/go-pop-plus-true-wireless-earbuds-black. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 7 pages without an H1

    https://www.jlab.com/collections/all, https://www.jlab.com/pages/gift-guide, https://www.jlab.com/pages/contact, https://www.jlab.com/blogs/news/how-to-pair-your-earbuds, https://www.jlab.com/pages/shipping-faq and https://www.jlab.com/pages/track-your-order and 1 other have 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 193 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

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

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 7 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9297
  • 123 distorted images

    123 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

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

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    32 of 33 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 527 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 527 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW”.

  • 78 calls to action

    The homepage has 78 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Track your Order” and “Shop Earbuds”.

  • 2 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 customer or partner logos and 126 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: PostHog.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies, 1 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.

  • 20 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 20 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 jlabaudio.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
