Speed

6 to fix80
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 273 KiB

    About 273 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • 4,411 HTML elements

    The page has 4,411 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 80

    80/100

    Your mobile performance score is 80. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 625 KiB

    24 images could be 625 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    700 ms

    12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.

  • Shopify adds 95 ms

    95 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 95 ms of main-thread work and 707 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 171 KiB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (171 KiB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, accessibilityassistant.com and improvedcontactform.com and others), adding 1,018 KiB and 200 ms of main-thread time.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 85 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    7 KiB

    7 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.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 386 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    Your largest element takes 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.8 s

    8.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 24% slower for real visitors

    +24%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 120 ms to 153 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

9 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors wait 1.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 16% faster for real visitors

    -16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.2 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.061

    0.061

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.061, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.4 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 18 ms

    18 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 18 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 3.1 MB in 257 requests

    3.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 257 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (28), scripts 970 KiB (85) and other files 746 KiB (99). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    2026-uswnt-fresh-faces.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 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.88 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.88 g of CO₂e: 105.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 9392
  • 40 text elements with low contrast

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

  • ARIA commands must have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 34 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 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: 50 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

3 to fixGoogle 9286
  • Title is long (85 characters)

    Your title is 85 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Collectible Trading Cards of Athletes for Fans and Collectors – Parkside Collectibles”.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • One H1 headline

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.parksidecards.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 5 pages without a meta description

    https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/all, https://www.parksidecards.com/policies/shipping-policy, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/uswnt, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/usl and https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/merch have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 13 pages without an H1

    https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/all, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/indycar, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/uswnt, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/usl, https://www.parksidecards.com/collections/merch and https://www.parksidecards.com/products/2026-uswnt-the-future-of-u-s and 7 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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.

  • About 454 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 454 words of visible text.

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW” and “SHOP NOW!”.

  • 18 cookies set on arrival

    18

Security, domain, email and software versions
