Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.6 s · 675 KiBAbout 675 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.4 s · 384 KiB7 images could be 384 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 45
45/100Your mobile performance score is 45 (desktop: 92). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and Optanon and others), adding 1.2 MB and 760 ms of main-thread time.
Minify JavaScript
480 ms · 89 KiB89 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Google Tag Manager adds 477 ms
477 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 477 ms of main-thread work and 678 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.
Render-blocking requests
400 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 400 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 67 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (67 KiB).
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 227 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 15 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 15 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 36 KiBAbout 36 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.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 92 but mobile only 45. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

Core Web Vitals

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 57 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 57 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (10), images 912 KiB (26) and fonts 72 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
227 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Multimedia-17-Edited.webp at 1,330 px wide, shown at 179 px. Resized copies would save about 227 KiB.
6 images below the first screen load straight away
6 images further down the page (324 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
