Use efficient cache lifetimes
5.3 s · 8.8 MB34 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8.8 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.3 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.3 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 7.2 MB22 images could be 7.2 MB 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.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google/Doubleclick Ads and Google Fonts and others), adding 8.6 MB and 327 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
cloudfront.net adds 0 ms
0 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 7.4 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.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 750 ms.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 674 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 326 ms
326 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 326 ms of main-thread work and 675 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: 3.0 s
A phone's processor spends 3.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Amazon Web Services adds 0 ms
0 msAmazon Web Services costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 477 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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

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) held steady for real visitors
0%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 204 ms to 203 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.1 MB in 78 requests
10.1 MBYour homepage downloads 10.1 MB in 78 requests on a phone: images 8.0 MB (34), scripts 1.9 MB (6) and other files 132 KiB (34). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 6.4 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
3 images far larger than shown
5.0 MB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example web-banner_nampa_twin-falls_20x6_v1edit.png at 4,027 px wide, shown at 358 px. Resized copies would save about 5.0 MB.
12 images in older formats
12 images (7.1 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.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (200 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.87 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.87 g of CO₂e: 343.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Images must have alternative text (2 elements)
Images must have alternative text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Heading levels should only increase by one (5 elements)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 checks passed
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No page title
Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://www.pacesupply.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
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.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
0%A phone browser shows 477 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.
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://www.pacesupply.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.
1 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.
Best practices
6 small tap targets
6 of 24 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
5 distorted images
5 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.
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
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.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 477 words of copy
The homepage carries about 477 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Log In / Register” and “Learn More”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
12 cookies set on arrival
12Opening the homepage sets 12 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.
10 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 10 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 pacesupply.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
