justshowencomics.com website review

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

A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 849 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Shopify costs a phone 158 ms of main-thread work and 456 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.

7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Google CDN and others), adding 733 KiB and 302 ms of main-thread time.

7 images could be 210 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 137 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 134 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

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

About 16 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10 KiB).

8 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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.

Your homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 301 requests on a phone: other files 928 KiB (149), images 779 KiB (15) and scripts 656 KiB (100). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

IMG_3327.jpg 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).

3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example IMG_3330.jpg at 1,600 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 114 KiB.

1 image (76 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

4 images further down the page (143 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.74 g of CO₂e: 89.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

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

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

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

1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

Your title is 74 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Just Showen Comics | Comic Books, Manga, Graphic Novels & More – JSC Store”.

Your meta description is 285 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 52 pages on justshowencomics.com and 2 external pages.

There is no https://justshowencomics.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.

https://justshowencomics.com/collections/all has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 20 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

9 of 22 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

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

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 544 words of visible text.

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.

Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
