Speed

2 to fix75
  • Improve image delivery

    34.4 s · 6.7 MB

    2 images could be 6.7 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 34.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 75

    75/100

    Your mobile performance score is 75. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 29 KiB

    About 29 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 52 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 153 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix67
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 39.6 s

    39.6 s

    Your largest element takes 39.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “100% Kona Coffee - Dark Roast”.

  • Time to Interactive: 39.6 s

    39.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 39.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    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.

4 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.8 s

    0.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.8 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Speed Index: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.2 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 1 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 7.6 MB in 28 requests

    7.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.6 MB in 28 requests on a phone: images 7.4 MB (4), scripts 148 KiB (10) and other files 16 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.16 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.16 g of CO₂e: 258.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9596
  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 3 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 33 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 35 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 33 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 10081
  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://www.lavaleicoffee.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at lavaleicoffee.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 7 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 7 pages on lavaleicoffee.com and 0 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Meta description: 147 characters

    Your meta description is 147 characters: “Authentic 100% Kona Coffee, family grown on the mineral-rich volcanic slopes of Mauna Loa. Hand-picked, small-batch roa…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Spirit of Hawai'i”.

  • Title: 47 characters

    Your title is a healthy 47 characters: “Lava Lei Coffee | 100% Kona Coffee from Hawai'i”.

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.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.lavaleicoffee.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.

1 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.

Other pages

100
  • 2 internal pages checked

    We fetched 2 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 2 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

    All 2 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    8 of 9 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix67
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 104 words

    The homepage has only about 104 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Shop” and “Shop Now”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.
