Speed
Main-thread work: 6.5 s
A phone's processor spends 6.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.5 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 (Shopify, Facebook and latitudefinancial.com and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 1.0 MBAbout 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 960 KiB17 images could be 960 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 51
51/100Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
950 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Shopify adds 427 ms
427 msShopify costs a phone 427 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
496 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (496 KiB).
Facebook adds 398 ms
398 msFacebook costs a phone 398 ms of main-thread work and 228 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.
latitudefinancial.com adds 365 ms
365 mslatitudefinancial.com costs a phone 365 ms of main-thread work and 448 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 295 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,253 HTML elements
The page has 2,253 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
130 ms · 13 KiBAbout 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 130 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
26 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
18 KiB18 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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: 5.0 MB in 240 requests
5.0 MBYour homepage downloads 5.0 MB in 240 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (35), scripts 1.8 MB (88) and other files 1.0 MB (91). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Pits_Bits_Spring_2025_Mobile_1.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.41 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.41 g of CO₂e: 169.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

Accessibility
6 text elements with low contrast

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

53 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “Up to 80% off end of line gear”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (246 characters)
Your meta description is 246 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

Other pages

4 pages without a meta description
