Speed

13 to fix42
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.9 s · 487 KiB

    About 487 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.6 s · 346 KiB

    24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (346 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 42

    42/100

    Your mobile performance score is 42. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 9,315 HTML elements

    The page has 9,315 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 8.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 8.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.8 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 (Klaviyo, stape.io and Shopify and others), adding 3.4 MB and 797 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 393 KiB

    17 images could be 393 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 634 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    300 ms · 49 KiB

    About 49 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 89 ms

    89 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 89 ms of main-thread work and 2.1 MB 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.

  • Klaviyo adds 257 ms

    257 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 257 ms of main-thread work and 346 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.

  • LoyaltyLion adds 64 ms

    64 ms

    LoyaltyLion costs a phone 64 ms of main-thread work and 365 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

    250 ms · 66 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 66 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    100 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    42 KiB

    42 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 22 ms

    22 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 22 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 33.2 s

    33.2 s

    Your largest element takes 33.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Win Up To 10% Off Your First Order 🎁 5% Off Not Today 10% …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 34.3 s

    34.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 34.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.5 s

    13.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user INP: 261 ms

    261 ms

    Real visitors wait 261 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 29% slower for real visitors

    +29%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 237 ms to 306 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 39 images without width and height

    39 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.4 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.02

    0.02

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.02 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 384 ms

    384 ms

    Real visitors wait 384 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.007

    0.007

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.007, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 8.2 MB in 439 requests

    8.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.2 MB in 439 requests on a phone: images 4.7 MB (120), scripts 1.8 MB (148) and other files 1.1 MB (140). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (175 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.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (153 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.34 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.34 g of CO₂e: 280.2 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

10 to fixGoogle 7987
  • 16 tap targets too small

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

  • 13 text elements with low contrast

    13 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 6 images without alt text

    6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (145 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 145 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 25 links without text

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

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (18 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 18 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • 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 (h4 → h6 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 10 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8584
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • 30 links with vague text

    30 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList and Organization) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("//www.myoddballs.com/cdn/shop/files/OddBalls_Logo_Black…”.

  • 362 internal links, 95 external

    The homepage links to 362 pages on myoddballs.com and 95 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 156 characters

    Your meta description is 156 characters: “Discover underwear, men’s boxer shorts & socks in bold designs. Comfortable, colourful & built for everyday. Free deliv…”.

  • Title: 49 characters

    Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “OddBalls - The Underwear Everyone's Talking About”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.myoddballs.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.myoddballs.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (4,552 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

6 to fix52
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/matching-pyjamas, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 3 pages share a title

    https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas/department-ladies and https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas/department-kids all use the title “Christmas Pyjamas | Matching & Family Sets | OddBalls”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/garfield, https://www.myoddballs.com/pages/subscription-selector, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/alpine and https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/stormtrooper have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages share a meta description

    https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas/department-ladies and https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas/department-kids use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 2 links to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas/department-ladies, whose canonical is https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 7 pages without an H1

    https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/stormtrooper, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-matching-pyjamas, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-underwear, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-boxers, https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/penguins and https://www.myoddballs.com/collections/christmas-tartan and 1 other have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 139 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed
  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 5476
  • 2 broken images

    2 images failed to load on a phone, for example url:'//www.myoddballs.com/cdn/shop/files/TOPGUNM.BRIEFFRONT_medium.png?v=1726978164.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    92 of 109 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 2,877 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,877 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP CHRISTMAS”.

  • 23 calls to action

    The homepage has 23 calls to action, for example “Shop Garfield”, “JOIN THE PANTS PARTY NOW” and “SHOP NOW”.

  • 8 short forms

    8 short forms (6 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 10 testimonial or review blocks, 27 customer or partner logos, a star rating and 90 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 13 trackers load before any consent

    13

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads FullStory, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and 8 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.

  • 35 cookies set on arrival

    35

    Opening the homepage sets 35 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.

  • 69 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 69 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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