Speed

11 to fix47
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.5 s · 1.5 MB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.8 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 47

    47/100

    Your mobile performance score is 47. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Improve image delivery

    2.3 MB

    5 images could be 2.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    900 ms · 778 KiB

    About 778 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Stripe, Google Fonts and Shopify and others), adding 5.5 MB and 434 ms of main-thread time.

  • Stripe adds 434 ms

    434 ms

    Stripe costs a phone 434 ms of main-thread work and 299 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.

  • Shopify adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 3.2 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.

  • 9 long tasks on the main thread

    9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 276 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 926 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • supabase.co adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    supabase.co costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.9 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 18 KiB

    About 18 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 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: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix53
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 20.8 s

    20.8 s

    Your largest element takes 20.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 25.5 s

    25.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.1 s

    13.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.2 s

    3.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 468 ms

    468 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 468 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.061

    0.061

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.061, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix25
  • Page weight: 8.6 MB in 68 requests

    8.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.6 MB in 68 requests on a phone: images 7.3 MB (11), scripts 1.1 MB (6) and fonts 115 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    canaveral-lineup-CoZkJWki.jpg weighs 2.2 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 2 images far larger than shown

    1.5 MB

    2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example canaveral-lineup-CoZkJWki.jpg at 1,920 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 1.5 MB.

  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (2.5 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.

  • About 2.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.44 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.44 g of CO₂e: 293.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9697
  • 22 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10083
  • No H1 headline

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 140 characters

    Your meta description is 140 characters: “Mechanical watches designed in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Coastal-inspired timepieces, limited Foundry releases, and nu…”.

  • Title: 49 characters

    Your title is a healthy 49 characters: “NSB Watch — Watches Inspired by the Florida Coast”.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ItemList, Organization and WebSite.

  • 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://nsbwatch.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix75
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    0%

    A phone browser shows 956 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.

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: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://nsbwatch.com/llms.txt (2 KiB, 0 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 10 small tap targets

    10 of 18 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

7 to fix29
  • 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 calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • No social proof

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

  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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 956 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 956 words of visible text.

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.
