Speed

10 to fix59
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 s · 434 KiB

    About 434 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.

  • audioeye-services.com adds 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    audioeye-services.com costs a phone 1.9 s of main-thread work and 342 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 s · 301 KiB

    1 image could be 301 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 5.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 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 (audioeye-services.com, Klaviyo and Klarna and others), adding 1.4 MB and 2.4 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    800 ms · 159 KiB

    19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (159 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    600 ms

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 47 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 47 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Klaviyo adds 179 ms

    179 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 179 ms of main-thread work and 402 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

    120 ms · 48 KiB

    About 48 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 120 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 123 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 17.8 s

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +5%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 92 ms to 96 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

3 to fix60
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    261110_MARS_HP_WIDE_00.jpg weighs 535 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • Page weight: 3.6 MB in 235 requests

    3.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 235 requests on a phone: scripts 1.7 MB (124), images 977 KiB (7) and other files 696 KiB (78). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    269 KiB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 261110_MARS_HP_HP_PORTRAIT_00.jpg at 1,600 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 269 KiB.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (109 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.01 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.01 g of CO₂e: 120.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

11 to fixGoogle 8981
  • 3 buttons without a name

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

  • 6 tap targets too small

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

  • <html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

    <html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (24 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 24 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 9 links without text

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

  • 4 form fields without a label

    4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 5 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 25 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 34 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 25 passed and 9 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10086
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • No structured data

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

  • Open Graph partly set

    Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 136 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 136 pages on johnelliott.co and 5 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 137 characters

    Your meta description is 137 characters: “John Elliott. An independent perspective on luxury, with an obsessive focus on construction. Explore the latest ready-t…”.

  • Title: 52 characters

    Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “John Elliott Official Online Store | Johnelliott.com”.

  • Canonical URL set

  • 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.johnelliott.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.

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.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.johnelliott.com/pages/fall-winter-2026-lookbook has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.johnelliott.com/pages/fall-winter-2026-lookbook 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 45 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9285
  • 27 small tap targets

    27 of 78 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Bad element for Flickity: #homeFeaturedProductsCarousel”.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • Only about 127 words

    The homepage has only about 127 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “shop”, “Gift Shop” and “Sign Up”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (4 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

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