Render-blocking requests
3.0 s17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.0 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 827 KiB35 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (827 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
1.5 s · 220 KiBAbout 220 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 12.4 s
A phone's processor spends 12.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 15
15/100Your mobile performance score is 15. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Wistia and Hotjar and others), adding 6.1 MB and 3.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
890 ms · 1.6 MBAbout 1.6 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 890 ms faster on a phone.
Wistia adds 756 ms
756 msWistia costs a phone 756 ms of main-thread work and 3.3 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 799 ms
799 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 799 ms of main-thread work and 707 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.
Hotjar adds 404 ms
404 msHotjar costs a phone 404 ms of main-thread work and 72 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.
Improve image delivery
388 KiB13 images could be 388 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 348 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
cloudfront.net adds 306 ms
306 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 306 ms of main-thread work and 300 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.
Facebook adds 287 ms
287 msFacebook costs a phone 287 ms of main-thread work and 282 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.
2,671 HTML elements
The page has 2,671 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 115 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 115 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
65 KiB65 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Duplicated JavaScript
17 KiB17 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 CSS
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Page weight: 9.0 MB in 438 requests
9.0 MBYour homepage downloads 9.0 MB in 438 requests on a phone: scripts 3.5 MB (205), other files 2.0 MB (172) and media 1.9 MB (1). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

About 2.5 g of CO₂ per visit
2.55 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.55 g of CO₂e: 305.6 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
19 text elements with low contrast
19 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 images without alt text
3 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.
9 form fields without a label
9 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
