Speed

8 to fix64
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    910 ms · 436 KiB

    About 436 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 910 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 335 KiB

    6 images could be 335 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Wix, Google Tag Manager and visitor-analytics.io and others), adding 2.4 MB and 792 ms of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64 (desktop: 86). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    750 ms · 171 KiB

    171 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Wix adds 613 ms

    613 ms

    Wix costs a phone 613 ms of main-thread work and 2.2 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1,933 HTML elements

    The page has 1,933 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 137 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    90 KiB

    About 90 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    33 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (33 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    31 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

  • Server response: 52 ms

    52 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 52 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.6 MB in 269 requests

    4.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.6 MB in 269 requests on a phone: other files 2.1 MB (112), scripts 1.3 MB (120) and images 702 KiB (25). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.31 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.31 g of CO₂e: 156.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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

6 to fixGoogle 8392
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 10 tap targets too small

    10 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 7 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Hidden but focusable

    9 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

1 checks passed
  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10081
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 154 characters

    Your meta description is 154 characters: “Natural stone, brick, pavers, and masonry supplies at four Bay Area yards and three showrooms. Family run since 1923. B…”.

  • Title: 57 characters

    Your title is a healthy 57 characters: “Peninsula Building Materials | Stone & Masonry Since 1923”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.pbm1923.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.pbm1923.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix75
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    0%

    A phone browser shows 642 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.

3 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.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

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

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.pbm1923.com/llms.txt (3 KiB, 3 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “globalThis.defineStrictProperty is not a function”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    22 of 22 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix40
  • 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 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.

  • 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 642 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 642 words of visible text.

1 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Call Us: (877) 282-0522”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
