Speed

1 to fix77
  • Mobile performance score: 77

    77/100

    Your mobile performance score is 77. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 41 KiB

    About 41 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    74 KiB

    6 images could be 74 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 64 KiB and 17 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    11 KiB

    About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1 KiB).

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 172 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix77
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Your largest element takes 4.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image. Most of its time is element render delay (2.0 s).

  • Speed Index: 4.9 s

    4.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.9 s

    4.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.9 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.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.41 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.41 g of CO₂e: 49.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.4 MB in 142 requests

    1.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.4 MB in 142 requests on a phone: other files 712 KiB (70), images 377 KiB (10) and scripts 247 KiB (43). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9692
  • Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used (1 element)

    Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 33 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 20 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 23 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 20 passed and 3 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10086
  • 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 (167 characters)

    Your meta description is 167 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 63 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 63 pages on medon.com and 2 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 50 characters

    Your title is a healthy 50 characters: “MEDON | Luxury Men's Leather Shoes & Boots – Medon”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.medon.com/.

  • 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.medon.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.

2 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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.medon.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix93
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://www.medon.com/collections/oxfords and https://www.medon.com/collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://www.medon.com/products/asher-oxfords-mens and https://www.medon.com/products/lether-classic-mens-shoes use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 7 internal pages checked

    We fetched 7 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    6 pages of 7 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 6 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9692
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 429 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. 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.

  • Only about 10 words

    The homepage has only about 10 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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
  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Apply”, “Add a note to your order” and “CONTACT US”.

  • 4 short forms

    4 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 3 phone links and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 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 medon.com, 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.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
