Google PageSpeed Insights (opens in a new tab), mobile
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 69
69/100Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
650 ms · 97 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (97 KiB).
Improve image delivery
500 ms · 202 KiB10 images could be 202 KiB 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
320 ms · 67 KiBAbout 67 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 320 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 15 KiBAbout 15 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.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 257 KiB and 64 ms of main-thread time.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
7 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 7 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.

Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 453 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 20.2 s
20.2 sYour largest element takes 20.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 20.2 s
20.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 20.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.2 s
6.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
1 image without width and height
1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
3 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.027
0.027The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.027, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s
0.9 sThe first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.1 MB in 215 requests
5.1 MBYour homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 215 requests on a phone: fonts 3.0 MB (4), other files 873 KiB (139) and images 833 KiB (16). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
35 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 20181207_094425_1512x.jpg at 1,438 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 35 KiB.
About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.45 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.45 g of CO₂e: 173.9 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 load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
ARIA attributes must conform to valid names (1 element)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid names: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
4 tap targets too small
4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
4 links without text
4 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 6 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (22 characters)
Your title is only 22 characters: “Legit honey – MadQueen”. 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.
Meta description is long (257 characters)
Your meta description is 257 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
21 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 21 pages on madqueen.ca and 4 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “.site-header__logo-image { height: 110px; }”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://madqueen.ca/.
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://madqueen.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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 (262 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://madqueen.ca/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
4 pages with very little text
https://madqueen.ca/collections/artisanal-honey, https://madqueen.ca/collections/personal-consumption, https://madqueen.ca/collections/seventh-generation-honey and https://madqueen.ca/products/petissimo have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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 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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 17 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 226 words
The homepage has only about 226 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP” and “SUBSCRIBE”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Shop” and “Subscribe”.
4 short forms
4 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 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.
5 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
No known trackers before consent
No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
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 madqueen.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.
