Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
4.8 s · 1.4 MB71 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.4 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.1 s · 632 KiBAbout 632 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.1 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 777 KiB6 images could be 777 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and spotapps.co and others), adding 18.1 MB and 944 ms of main-thread time.
spotapps.co adds 221 ms
221 msspotapps.co costs a phone 221 ms of main-thread work and 16.7 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.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 94 KiBAbout 94 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google CDN adds 301 ms
301 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 301 ms of main-thread work and 736 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 249 ms
249 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 249 ms of main-thread work and 355 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.
Main-thread work: 2.4 s
A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 29 KiB29 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
22 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 22 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 19.1 MB in 113 requests
19.1 MBYour homepage downloads 19.1 MB in 113 requests on a phone: media 14.2 MB (2), images 2.6 MB (34) and scripts 1.6 MB (37). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
:original weighs 516 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
15 images in older formats
15 images (1.6 MB) 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.
17 images below the first screen load straight away
17 images further down the page (1.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images far larger than shown
344 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example :original at 1,599 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 344 KiB.
About 5.4 g of CO₂ per visit
5.41 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.41 g of CO₂e: 648.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Hidden but focusable
1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 35 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
41 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 42 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 1 failed. 2 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.
15 H1 headlines
There are 15 <h1> headlines (“map marker pin87-48 78th St, Queens, NY 11421”, “The Most Famous Bar You've Never Heard Of” and “take us to go!”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (932 characters)
Your meta description is 932 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
3 links crawlers can't follow
3 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
37 internal links, 57 external
The homepage links to 37 pages on neirstavern.com and 57 external pages.
5 checks passed
Title: 53 characters
Your title is a healthy 53 characters: “Best American Restaurant in Woodhaven | Neir’s Tavern”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://neirstavern.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://neirstavern.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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://neirstavern.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 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 (1,253 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://neirstavern.com/-party and https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-party all use the title “Neir’s Tavern - Groups and Parties”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
6 pages without a meta description
https://neirstavern.com/-party, https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-food-menu, https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-party, https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-communityhall, https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-press and https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://neirstavern.com/-party, whose canonical is https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-party. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
3 pages with very little text
https://neirstavern.com/-party, https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-party and https://neirstavern.com/queens-woodhaven-neirs-tavern-press 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.
10 internal pages checked
We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

Tap targets are thumb-sized
10 of 11 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 31 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 1,236 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,236 words of visible text.
6 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “ORDER , OPENS IN A NEW TAB” and “Open contact us popup form”.
21 calls to action
The homepage has 21 calls to action, for example “Book your party”, “Book Table” and “Order Online”.
1 short form
A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics and Meta Pixel.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 2 email links.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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.
7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (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.
16 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 neirstavern.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
