Speed

12 to fix57
  • Main-thread work: 7.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 7.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 7,249 HTML elements

    The page has 7,249 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 (growave.io, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and others), adding 2.2 MB and 2.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 57

    57/100

    Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    950 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 639 KiB

    About 639 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 535 ms

    535 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 535 ms of main-thread work and 510 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.

  • growave.io adds 558 ms

    558 ms

    growave.io costs a phone 558 ms of main-thread work and 244 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 383 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Klaviyo adds 262 ms

    262 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 262 ms of main-thread work and 510 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 225 ms

    225 ms

    rebuyengine.com costs a phone 225 ms of main-thread work and 481 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.

  • Shopify adds 231 ms

    231 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 231 ms of main-thread work and 321 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

    280 ms · 67 KiB

    About 67 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 280 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    82 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (82 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    73 KiB

    7 images could be 73 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    59 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 59 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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 JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 21 ms

    21 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 21 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

9 to fix67

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 12 images without width and height

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    0%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 1.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.1 MB in 393 requests

    4.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 393 requests on a phone: scripts 2.1 MB (138), other files 1,022 KiB (174) and images 665 KiB (50). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.17 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.17 g of CO₂e: 140.3 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.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9997

Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9288
  • Meta description is long (163 characters)

    Your meta description is 163 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 828 internal links, 27 external

    The homepage links to 828 pages on macrobaby.com and 27 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 52 characters

    Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “MacroBaby, the Baby Store with a Heart | Orlando, FL”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.macrobaby.com/.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

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

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.

  • Organization data: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,286 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://www.macrobaby.com/collections/sale and https://www.macrobaby.com/collections/new-arrivals have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Content and conversion

2 to fix83

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

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • 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.

  • About 798 words of copy

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 5 email links.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (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.

  • 18 cookies set on arrival

    18

    Opening the homepage sets 18 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.

  • 52 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 52 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 macrobaby.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
