mlperformanceusa.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.6 s · 332 KiBAbout 332 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 262 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (262 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
4,362 HTML elements
The page has 4,362 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 63
63/100Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
350 ms · 495 KiB8 images could be 495 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, Google Tag Manager and Google CDN and others), adding 1.1 MB and 462 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 156 ms
156 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 156 ms of main-thread work and 308 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 21 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 21 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 131 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
33 KiBAbout 33 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify JavaScript
14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.

Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 644 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 18 ms
18 msYour server sent the HTML in 18 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s
2.6 sThe first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
14 images without width and height
14 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 19% slower for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.7 MB in 223 requests
3.7 MBYour homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 223 requests on a phone: other files 1.2 MB (83), images 1.0 MB (43) and scripts 970 KiB (58). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
mlp-usa-hero-blue-bmw-plate-hidden-mobile.jpg 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).
4 images far larger than shown
85 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example mlp-usa-hero-blue-bmw-plate-hidden-mobile.jpg at 1,200 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 85 KiB.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.04 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.04 g of CO₂e: 125.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
4 dropdowns have no label.
3 buttons without a name
3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
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 (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
63 images without alt text
63 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (12 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
5 form fields without a label
5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
53 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 61 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (169 characters)
Your meta description is 169 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
277 internal links, 15 external

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.
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 (2,937 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to /pages/all-brands, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
1 page without a title
/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
1 page without a meta description
/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
8 pages without an H1
/collections/all, /customer_authentication/redirect, /collections/ebc, /collections/endless, /collections/brembo and /collections/ferodo and 2 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page slow to respond

1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://mlperformanceusa.com/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en®ion_country=US.

Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://mlperformanceusa.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
mlperformanceusa.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
mlperformanceusa.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed

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.
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 map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 719 words of copy
The homepage carries about 719 words of visible text.
7 checks passed

Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be mlperformanceusa.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
