lakanto.ca website review

Your mobile performance score is 86. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

7 images could be 189 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

About 211 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (303 KiB).

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Yotpo, Klaviyo and Shopify and others), adding 629 KiB and 183 ms of main-thread time.

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

13 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.

Your largest element takes 4.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 4.1 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 2.5 MB in 230 requests on a phone: scripts 776 KiB (68), other files 741 KiB (101) and images 721 KiB (18). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

1 image further down the page (29 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.70 g of CO₂e: 83.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

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

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Your meta description is 316 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

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

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

The homepage links to 71 pages on lakanto.ca and 18 external pages.

https://lakanto.ca/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

https://lakanto.ca/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

https://lakanto.ca/collections/all-products, https://lakanto.ca/pages/subscribe, https://lakanto.ca/blogs/recipes, https://lakanto.ca/pages/about-us, https://lakanto.ca/pages/rewards and https://lakanto.ca/customer_authentication/redirect have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://lakanto.ca/products/liquid-monk-fruit-sweetener-extract-drop-original and https://lakanto.ca/products/liquid-monk-fruit-sweetener-extract-drop use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

https://lakanto.ca/pages/subscribe, https://lakanto.ca/pages/about-us, https://lakanto.ca/pages/rewards and https://lakanto.ca/customer_authentication/redirect have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

https://lakanto.ca/pages/rewards has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 32 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to fetch at 'https://pixel-edge.keychain.com/partner/config?pixelId=MANUFACTURER_P07W5ED8TV_FD6SRXT3' from origi…”.

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

Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

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

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

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 1,031 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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 16 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 22 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
