Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 299 KiBAbout 299 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
3,607 HTML elements
The page has 3,607 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 80 KiBAbout 80 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.
Improve image delivery
100 ms · 257 KiB14 images could be 257 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 46 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (46 KiB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Google Tag Manager and Stamped.io and others), adding 565 KiB and 240 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
50 ms · 33 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 33 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 82 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
16 KiB16 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.7 s
A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 613 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 9 ms
9 msYour server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.5 s
13.5 sYour largest element takes 13.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “LUGX LG-207S Compact Nail Dust Collector in a warm beige co…”.
Time to Interactive: 13.6 s
13.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.9 s
6.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.3 s
3.3 sThe first text or image appears after 3.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
18 images without width and height
18 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 11% slower for real visitors
+11%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 113 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.5 MB in 218 requests
2.5 MBYour homepage downloads 2.5 MB in 218 requests on a phone: other files 1.1 MB (119), scripts 731 KiB (62) and images 354 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (24 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.72 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.72 g of CO₂e: 85.9 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
218 images without alt text
218 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Hidden but focusable
2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Meta description is long (166 characters)
Your meta description is 166 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
437 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 437 pages on nailsuperstore.com and 13 external pages.
6 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Carol Stream & Chicago’s Largest Nail Supply Warehouse Trusted Since 1995”.
Title: 60 characters
Your title is a healthy 60 characters: “Wholesale Nail Supplies | Professional Nail Products & Tools”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://nailsuperstore.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://nailsuperstore.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
Parts of the site are closed to 3 AI crawlers
Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.
2 checks passed
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,415 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://nailsuperstore.com/llms.txt (2 KiB, 2 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 139 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
1 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Best practices
5 small tap targets
5 of 24 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
3 JavaScript errors while loading
3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “$ is not defined”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 8 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 880 words of copy
The homepage carries about 880 words of visible text.
6 checks passed
16 calls to action
The homepage has 16 calls to action, for example “Buy in Bulk”, “Contact Us” and “Track Order”.
7 short forms

Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 9 phone links and 0 email links.
Opening hours shown
Your opening hours are on the homepage.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 1 more (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.
14 cookies set on arrival
14Opening the homepage sets 14 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.
31 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 31 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 nailsuperstore.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 3 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
