Speed

8 to fix88
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 88

    88/100

    Your mobile performance score is 88. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, sdiapi.com and transcend-cdn.com and others), adding 771 KiB and 713 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 239 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (239 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 314 KiB

    About 314 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 367 ms

    367 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 367 ms of main-thread work and 370 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.

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 305 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 24 KiB

    About 24 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    158 KiB

    10 images could be 158 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    8 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 8 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix100
  • Time to Interactive: 9.5 s

    9.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 381 ms

    381 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 381 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Your largest element takes 2.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “LORDE x MANHATTAN PORTAGE MINI NY MESSENGER BAG Front”.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -4%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.1 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

10 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors wait 1.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 156 ms

    156 ms

    Real visitors wait 156 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 373 ms

    373 ms

    Real visitors wait 373 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 14% faster for real visitors

    -14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 216 ms to 162 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 2.5 MB in 169 requests

    2.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.5 MB in 169 requests on a phone: scripts 1,008 KiB (53), other files 749 KiB (93) and images 711 KiB (16). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    LORDE-4137_b45e0f2d-0385-422d-9c06-603021c9077b.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.70 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.70 g of CO₂e: 84.5 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

2 to fixGoogle 10097
  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 44 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 1 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10084
  • Title is short (25 characters)

    Your title is only 25 characters: “LORDE STORE - LORDE STORE”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“LORDE STORE LORDE STORE” and “LORDE STORE LORDE STORE”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 92 internal links, 21 external

    The homepage links to 92 pages on lorde.store and 21 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 97 characters

    Your meta description is 97 characters: “Shop exclusive music and merch from the Official Lorde Store. Hoodies, T-Shirts, Vinyl, and more!”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://lorde.store/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://lorde.store/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

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 (329 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://lorde.store/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 6 pages share a meta description

    https://lorde.store/products/relic-tour-long-sleeve, https://lorde.store/products/2025-blue-sketch-dateback-tee, https://lorde.store/products/2025-ribcage-dateback-tee-lilac, https://lorde.store/products/2025-x-ray-dateback-tee, https://lorde.store/products/virgin-t-shirt-white and https://lorde.store/products/virgin-long-sleeve use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://lorde.store/collections/music has 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 43 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'open' of object '#<Window>'”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    14 of 15 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix30
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

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

  • Only about 234 words

    The homepage has only about 234 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Meta Pixel and 1 more (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.

  • 12 cookies set on arrival

    12

    Opening the homepage sets 12 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 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.

  • 24 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 24 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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