Core Web Vitals

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.4 MB
5.4 MBYour homepage downloads 5.4 MB on a phone, 963 KiB of it images (18%). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
15 images below the first screen load straight away
15 images further down the page (360 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
5 images in older formats
5 images (285 KiB) are 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 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.52 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.52 g of CO₂e: 182.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (16 elements)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 16 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (2 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
7 images without alt text
7 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (14 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 14 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
40 links without text
40 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
56 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 63 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 56 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (70 characters)
Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Women’s Clothing Made in Canada | Sustainable Canadian Clothing | Miik”.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Proudly made in Canada. Always have been. Always …” and “Proudly made in Canada. Always have been. Always …”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
336 internal links, 15 external
The homepage links to 336 pages on miik.ca and 15 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 155 characters
Your meta description is 155 characters: “Sustainable women’s clothing made in Canada. Discover buttery-soft, Canadian-made clothing made in Toronto with comfort…”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.miik.ca/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
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.miik.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,215 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.miik.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://www.miik.ca/policies/shipping-policy, https://www.miik.ca/collections/blazers and https://www.miik.ca/collections/canadian-made-womens-corporate-workwear have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
5 pages without an H1
https://www.miik.ca/pages/pick-up-faq, https://www.miik.ca/collections/fall-winter-collection, https://www.miik.ca/collections/womens-clothing-made-in-canada, https://www.miik.ca/collections/womens-tops-tunics-canada and https://www.miik.ca/collections/canadian-made-womens-corporate-workwear have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
https://www.miik.ca/collections/womens-tops-tunics-canada and https://www.miik.ca/collections/canadian-made-womens-corporate-workwear have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 106 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices
3 checks passed
No console errors

Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 56 testimonial or review blocks. 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.
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.
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.
About 1,346 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,346 words of visible text.
Urgency cues
The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW”.
25 calls to action
The homepage has 25 calls to action, for example “SHOP ALL”, “SHOP BY CATEGORY” and “SHOP BY COLLECTION”.
5 short forms
5 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
9 trackers load before any consent
9Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and LinkedIn Insight and 4 mores (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.
24 cookies set on arrival
24Opening the homepage sets 24 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.
46 other companies contacted

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 miik.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
