Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.3 s · 266 KiB68 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (266 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
900 ms · 186 KiBAbout 186 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61 (desktop: 93). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
600 ms · 387 KiB12 images could be 387 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 130 KiBAbout 130 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
1,816 HTML elements
The page has 1,816 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Trust Pilot and Crisp and others), adding 301 KiB and 138 ms of main-thread time.
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 8 KiB8 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 79 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 93 but mobile only 61. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.9 s
A phone's processor spends 0.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 353 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
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Largest Contentful Paint: 10.6 s

10.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 10.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 4.0 s

998 msReal visitors wait 998 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
71 images without width and height
71 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 182 ms to 196 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
1 image in older formats
1 image (31 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.53 g of CO₂e: 63.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.9 MB in 79 requests
1.9 MBYour homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 79 requests on a phone: images 926 KiB (50), scripts 411 KiB (13) and fonts 332 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
5 buttons without a name
5 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
7 text elements with low contrast
7 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
3 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 87 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 5 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (177 characters)
Your title is 177 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Mageplaza | Magento 2 & Abode Commerce Development Company | Magento 2 Extension Developm…”.
Meta description is long (173 characters)
Your meta description is 173 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
172 internal links, 17 external
The homepage links to 172 pages on mageplaza.com and 17 external pages.
6 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Top-Rated Magento Extensions & Services”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.mageplaza.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
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://www.mageplaza.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.mageplaza.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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,640 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Best practices
18 small tap targets

3 low-resolution images
3 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
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.
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.
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.
About 1,289 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,289 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
11 calls to action
The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Order Export”, “Order Attributes” and “Call for Price”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 4 customer or partner logos, a star rating and 2 trust badges.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
3 cookies set on arrival
3Opening the homepage sets 3 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.
7 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 7 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 mageplaza.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
