Speed
Improve image delivery
1.1 s · 458 KiB6 images could be 458 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 74
74/100Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 142 KiBAbout 142 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, 9gtb.com and Shopify and others), adding 2.5 MB and 162 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 44 KiBAbout 44 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Shopify adds 17 ms
17 msShopify costs a phone 17 ms of main-thread work and 2.2 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.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 13 KiB13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 139 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
31 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (31 KiB).
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.

4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.9 s
8.9 sYour largest element takes 8.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 8.9 s
8.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 8.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
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.

3.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 3.0 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 89 ms
89 msScripts block the page for only 89 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.5 MB in 146 requests
4.5 MBYour homepage downloads 4.5 MB in 146 requests on a phone: other files 2.8 MB (87), images 977 KiB (17) and scripts 469 KiB (35). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (141 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 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.26 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.26 g of CO₂e: 151.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (12 characters)
Your title is only 12 characters: “MasonrySaver”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
96 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 96 pages on masonrysaver.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed

AI search readiness

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 (641 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://masonrysaver.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Content and conversion

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.
