Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
9.8 s · 2.4 MB31 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.4 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.7 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 5.7 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
4.0 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.0 s.
Improve image delivery
1.5 s · 524 KiB9 images could be 524 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54 (desktop: 87). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Optimizely, momos.com and Optanon and others), adding 2.9 MB and 392 ms of main-thread time.
Minify JavaScript
460 ms · 53 KiB53 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
momos.com adds 140 ms
140 msmomos.com costs a phone 140 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.
Optimizely adds 162 ms
162 msOptimizely costs a phone 162 ms of main-thread work and 323 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.
cloudfront.net adds 0 ms
0 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 107 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
38 KiBAbout 38 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
16 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 16 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 87 but mobile only 54. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 645 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 20.0 s
20.0 sThe first text or image appears after 20.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 25.5 s
25.5 sYour largest element takes 25.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Papa Murphy's Jack-o'-lantern Pizza”.
Speed Index: 20.0 s
20.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 20.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 25.7 s
25.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 25.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.6 MB in 69 requests
4.6 MBYour homepage downloads 4.6 MB in 69 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (9), fonts 1.3 MB (7) and images 1.3 MB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
119 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example cookie-dough-feature-medium-tile.jpg at 1,350 px wide, shown at 354 px. Resized copies would save about 119 KiB.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (265 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image in older formats
1 image (101 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 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.30 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.30 g of CO₂e: 155.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
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.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (1 element)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 16 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
robots.txt blocks all crawlers
Your robots.txt disallows the whole site for every crawler, so search engines are told to stay out.
Title is long (72 characters)
Your title is 72 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Order Online For Best Pizza Near You l Papa Murphy's Take 'N' Bake Pizza”.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
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 X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
52 internal links, 15 external
The homepage links to 52 pages on papamurphys.com and 15 external pages.
4 checks passed
Meta description: 154 characters
Your meta description is 154 characters: “Order Papa Murphy's Take 'N' Bake pizza, sides & desserts online and find a store near you. Enjoy scratch-made dough, f…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “$10 Jack-O Pizza*”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.papamurphys.com/.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.papamurphys.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
robots.txt blocks 6 AI answer engine crawlers
6 of 6Your robots.txt shuts out ChatGPT search (OAI-SearchBot), ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User), Claude search (Claude-SearchBot), Claude (Claude-User), Perplexity (PerplexityBot) and Perplexity (Perplexity-User). These fetch pages to answer people's questions and cite the source, so your site can't be quoted or linked in those answers.
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.papamurphys.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.
Opted out of AI training for 5 crawlers
robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers.
1 checks passed
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (543 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.papamurphys.com/jack-o, whose canonical is https://www.papamurphys.com/Jack-O-product-feature. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 22 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Content and conversion
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 532 words of copy
The homepage carries about 532 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
15 other companies contacted
