Mobile performance score: 73
73/100Your mobile performance score is 73. 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 (YouTube, Shopify and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.9 MB and 650 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
YouTube adds 495 ms
495 msYouTube costs a phone 495 ms of main-thread work and 992 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 JavaScript
590 KiBAbout 590 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,969 HTML elements
The page has 2,969 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 146 ms
146 msShopify costs a phone 146 ms of main-thread work and 558 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.
Google Fonts adds 0 ms
0 msGoogle Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 380 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
150 ms · 138 KiBAbout 138 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 214 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
84 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (84 KiB).
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
21 KiB21 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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 CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (6 elements)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
Hidden but focusable
2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
24 images without alt text
24 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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 form fields without a label
7 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
