Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
25.2 s · 5.6 MB88 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.6 MB).
Improve image delivery
15.4 s · 2.9 MB16 images could be 2.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 15.4 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.6 s23 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.6 s.
YouTube adds 1.0 s
1.0 sYouTube costs a phone 1.0 s of main-thread work and 1.9 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. 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 1.1 s
1.1 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 1.1 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 34
34/100Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.9 s
A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.1 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 (Google Tag Manager, YouTube and Google CDN and others), adding 4.4 MB and 3.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 2.2 MBAbout 2.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 296 KiBAbout 296 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 429 ms
429 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 429 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.
Facebook adds 388 ms
388 msFacebook costs a phone 388 ms of main-thread work and 307 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.
Font display
350 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 350 ms).
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 297 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 22 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 22 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
11 KiB11 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.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

220 msReal visitors wait 220 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 14% slower for real visitors
+14%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 194 ms to 230 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.3 s to 5.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.3 MB in 201 requests
10.3 MBYour homepage downloads 10.3 MB in 201 requests on a phone: images 4.7 MB (38), scripts 4.3 MB (63) and other files 410 KiB (62). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images over 500 KB
3 images weigh 1.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
8 images far larger than shown
2.3 MB8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 7.webp at 1,917 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 2.3 MB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (63 KiB) is 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 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.91 g of CO₂e: 349.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
31 text elements with low contrast
31 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (20 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 20 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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
21 form fields without a label
21 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, h2 → h6 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
46 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: 46 passed and 9 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (188 characters)
Your meta description is 188 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, FAQPage, Organization and WebPage) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: potentialAction.target is not an absolute URL ("{search_term_string}")”.
No social preview image

2 links crawlers can't follow
