Speed

14 to fix33
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    3.3 s · 771 KiB

    76 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (771 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.7 s · 942 KiB

    About 942 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    1.3 s · 239 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 239 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 33

    33/100

    Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 8.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 8.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (monotype.com, Intercom and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 2.3 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    800 ms

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.

  • monotype.com adds 342 ms

    342 ms

    monotype.com costs a phone 342 ms of main-thread work and 930 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.

  • Intercom adds 311 ms

    311 ms

    Intercom costs a phone 311 ms of main-thread work and 236 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 278 ms

    278 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 278 ms of main-thread work and 533 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.

  • Privy adds 228 ms

    228 ms

    Privy costs a phone 228 ms of main-thread work and 411 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.

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 268 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • UpSellit adds 254 ms

    254 ms

    UpSellit costs a phone 254 ms of main-thread work and 78 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.

  • 1,928 HTML elements

    The page has 1,928 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    43 KiB

    About 43 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Minify JavaScript

    20 KiB

    20 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 13 ms

    13 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 13 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix0

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 6.6 MB in 532 requests

    6.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.6 MB in 532 requests on a phone: scripts 2.6 MB (106), other files 2.6 MB (304) and fonts 766 KiB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    9FFKVklXOfhwVdg5HuIZ2Uep_4478684c2cd4956ddf9bddb079eb5cb6.pn 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 1.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.86 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.86 g of CO₂e: 223.1 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

9 to fixGoogle 8187
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    12 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 2 buttons without a name

    2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 6 tap targets too small

    6 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (2 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (2 elements)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 8 links without text

    8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (4 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (4 elements)

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 14 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 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: 45 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

4 to fixGoogle 8587
  • Meta description is long (195 characters)

    Your meta description is 195 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://www.monotype.com/)”.

  • 6 links crawlers can't follow

    6 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 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.

  • 44 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 44 pages on myfonts.com and 6 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “MyFonts is one of the largest font marketplaces in the world, offering professional fonts for any project.”.

    Your title is a healthy 32 characters: “MyFonts | Buy and Download Fonts”.

  • Canonical URL set

  • 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.myfonts.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Some text only appears after JavaScript runs

    55%

    The HTML your server sends has 195 of the 356 words a browser shows. AI crawlers don't run JavaScript, so they miss the rest.

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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.myfonts.com/llms.txt (8 KiB, 0 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.myfonts.com/collections/novel-sans-rounded-font-atlasfontfoundry has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 11 pages without an H1

    https://www.myfonts.com/collections/montreux-grotesk-font-rohh, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/rohh-foundry, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/calenza-font-mostardesign, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/mostardesign-foundry, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/novel-sans-rounded-font-atlasfontfoundry and https://www.myfonts.com/collections/atlasfontfoundry-foundry and 5 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 7 pages with very little text

    https://www.myfonts.com/collections/montreux-grotesk-font-rohh, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/calenza-font-mostardesign, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/novel-sans-rounded-font-atlasfontfoundry, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/atlasfontfoundry-foundry, https://www.myfonts.com/collections/denz-font-paratype and https://www.myfonts.com/collections/raimundo-font-latinotype and 1 other 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.

  • 15 internal pages checked

5 checks passed

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 6985

    29 of 87 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 2 third-party cookies

  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “loadViewPortSpecificCSS is not defined”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

Content and conversion

3 to fix58
  • 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.

  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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 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 356 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 356 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Subscribe” and “Contact”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 20 cookies set on arrival

    20

    Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 30 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 30 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.

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 myfonts.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
