Speed

2 to fix94
  • Render-blocking requests

    750 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 750 ms.

  • nitrocdn.com adds 16 ms

    16 ms

    nitrocdn.com costs a phone 16 ms of main-thread work and 847 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    106 KiB

    About 106 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (nitrocdn.com), adding 847 KiB and 16 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 94

    94/100

    Your mobile performance score is 94. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 81 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 32 ms

    32 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 32 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.56 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.56 g of CO₂e: 66.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 2.0 MB in 60 requests

    2.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 60 requests on a phone: other files 1.0 MB (46), fonts 717 KiB (3) and stylesheets 112 KiB (8). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

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

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9195
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 5 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

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

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 41 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 48 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: 48 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://parkhurstdining.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.
