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
4.3 s · 1.2 MBAbout 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.3 s faster on a phone.
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.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Maps and Optanon and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 950 ms
950 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 950 ms of main-thread work and 1,015 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.
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 331 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Maps adds 175 ms
175 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 175 ms of main-thread work and 329 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.
Optanon adds 110 ms
110 msOptanon costs a phone 110 ms of main-thread work and 436 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
150 ms · 52 KiBAbout 52 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
163 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (163 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
150 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Legacy JavaScript
33 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 33 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Improve image delivery
6 KiB1 image could be 6 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

Tap response (INP) got 19% slower for real visitors
+19%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 232 ms to 277 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.7 MB in 118 requests
3.7 MBYour homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 118 requests on a phone: scripts 2.7 MB (61), images 467 KiB (24) and fonts 287 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
image is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.05 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.05 g of CO₂e: 126.4 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 are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (12 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 12 elements on the page fail 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. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 25 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 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: 48 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (79 characters)
Your title is 79 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Tires At Discount Prices, Oil Changes, & Low Price Auto Repair Services | Mavis”.
Meta description is long (186 characters)
Your meta description is 186 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
8 links with vague text
8 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
107 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 107 pages on mavis.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.mavis.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: FAQPage, Organization and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete

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.mavis.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.mavis.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 (1,222 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.mavis.com/locations and https://www.mavis.com/contact-us use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
6 pages without an H1
https://www.mavis.com/shop-tires, https://www.mavis.com/tire-deals, https://www.mavis.com/about-us, https://www.mavis.com/careers, https://www.mavis.com/tire-price-match-guarantee and https://www.mavis.com/reviews have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
No social proof
