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
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.3 s · 729 KiBAbout 729 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.3 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 337 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (337 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.8 s
A phone's processor spends 4.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (replocdn.com, posthog.com and upstackified.com and others), adding 2.4 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
650 ms · 610 KiB27 images could be 610 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
630 ms · 112 KiBAbout 112 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 630 ms faster on a phone.
replocdn.com adds 551 ms
551 msreplocdn.com costs a phone 551 ms of main-thread work and 1.7 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.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
posthog.com adds 539 ms
539 msposthog.com costs a phone 539 ms of main-thread work and 254 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
300 ms · 68 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 68 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 354 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,968 HTML elements
The page has 2,968 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 18 KiB18 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
9 KiB9 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.

Server response: 13 ms
13 msYour server sent the HTML in 13 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 17.5 s
17.5 sYour largest element takes 17.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 20.1 s
20.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 20.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.6 s
9.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 892 ms
892 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 892 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s
3.0 sThe first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
15 images without width and height
15 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 147 ms to 160 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+1%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.2 MB in 255 requests
4.2 MBYour homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 255 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (77), images 1.1 MB (67) and other files 795 KiB (93). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
11 images below the first screen load straight away
11 images further down the page (393 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
45 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example d88b5f13-aef5-482b-ae0e-5fb72292cb23 at 597 px wide, shown at 120 px. Resized copies would save about 45 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (155 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.19 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.19 g of CO₂e: 142.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
20 text elements with low contrast
20 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
11 tap targets too small
11 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Hidden but focusable
9 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
90 images without alt text
90 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (6 elements).

46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (84 characters)
Your title is 84 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Obsessively formulated luxury skincare without the luxury markups – Maelove Skincare”.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“An extra 20% off” and “your first bundle.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
126 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 126 pages on maelove.com and 5 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 145 characters
Your meta description is 145 characters: “Your solution for affordable, high-quality skincare. Discover our range of Vitamin C, Retinaldehyde, Retinol & Copper P…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://maelove.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete

AI search readiness
4 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: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,241 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://maelove.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
https://maelove.com/pages/routine-finder has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
6 pages without an H1
https://maelove.com/pages/routine-finder, https://maelove.com/collections, https://maelove.com/pages/signs-of-aging-collection, https://maelove.com/pages/how-to-treat-dark-spots-uneven-tone, https://maelove.com/pages/thinning-hair-collection-2026-08 and https://maelove.com/pages/dry-skin-collection have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
