Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61 (desktop: 87). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Snapchat, Shopify and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 1.3 MB and 48 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 0 ms
0 msShopify costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 24 KiBAbout 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
150 ms · 21 KiB1 image could be 21 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 70 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 87 but mobile only 61. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
3 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3 KiB).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 178 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 178 requests on a phone: other files 1.6 MB (155), images 1,013 KiB (7) and scripts 338 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.93 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.93 g of CO₂e: 111.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

SEO
No H1 headline

Content and conversion
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.
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 149 words
The homepage has only about 149 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
