linktest.dev does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.0 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Clarity and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 593 KiBAbout 593 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Google Tag Manager adds 693 ms
693 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 693 ms of main-thread work and 836 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.
Main-thread work: 3.5 s
A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 229 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
118 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (118 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
18 KiB18 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.
Improve image delivery
5 KiB1 image could be 5 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Duplicated JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Largest Contentful Paint: 5.4 s
5.4 sYour largest element takes 5.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Casual summer staples made for comfort, built for style. Di…”.
Total Blocking Time: 659 ms

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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 215 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 215 requests on a phone: scripts 1.6 MB (82), other files 703 KiB (103) and HTML 161 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.73 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.73 g of CO₂e: 87.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
21 links without text
21 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label

Every image has alt text
All 3 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 8 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (21 characters)
Your title is only 21 characters: “Shop Safe – link-test”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
7 links crawlers can't follow
7 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
51 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 51 pages on linktest.dev and 11 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.linktest.dev/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete

robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.linktest.dev/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (502 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to /pages/contact, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
1 page without a title
/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
14 pages without a meta description
/customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/seller-profile, /collections/clothes, /collections/men, /collections/woman and /collections/home-furniture and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages without an H1
/customer_authentication/redirect and /pages/seller-profile have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 27 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
2 checks passed
Canonical URLs point to themselves
No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set

Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
2 links through redirect chains
2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.linktest.dev/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en®ion_country=AE.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS

Valid certificate (72 days left)
The certificate from Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M01 verifies for linktest.dev and is valid for another 72 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://linktest.dev redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 78 days
linktest.dev is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
No CAA record
linktest.dev has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
linktest.dev's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
1 checks passed
Domain is 3 years old
3 yearslinktest.dev was registered in Jan 2023 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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.
About 367 words of copy
The homepage carries about 367 words of visible text.
6 checks passed

6 short forms

Opening hours shown
Your opening hours are on the homepage.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
linktest.dev has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.
SPF does not block other senders (?all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 include:spf.mandrillapp.com ?all”.
Domain receives no email
linktest.dev has no MX record, so it receives no email. SPF -all and DMARC reject still matter: they stop others sending mail as you.
Email authentication score: 35/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
1 checks passed
DKIM signing found
