Mobile performance score: 33
33/100Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.3 s
A phone's processor spends 7.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,886 HTML elements
The page has 3,886 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, prezenapps.com and rebuyengine.com and others), adding 46.0 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 95 ms
95 msShopify costs a phone 95 ms of main-thread work and 44.0 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.
Improve image delivery
500 ms · 1.9 MB39 images could be 1.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 829 KiBAbout 829 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 364 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (364 KiB).
14 long tasks on the main thread
14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 461 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 381 ms
381 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 381 ms of main-thread work and 517 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
300 ms · 71 KiBAbout 71 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
prezenapps.com adds 358 ms
358 msprezenapps.com costs a phone 358 ms of main-thread work and 9 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.
rebuyengine.com adds 280 ms
280 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 280 ms of main-thread work and 762 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.
gotolstoy.com adds 273 ms
273 msgotolstoy.com costs a phone 273 ms of main-thread work and 294 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.
Legacy JavaScript
74 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 74 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Duplicated JavaScript
6 KiB6 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
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

No map or directions link
