Speed
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 99 KiBAbout 99 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 96 KiB and 44 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
5 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).
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.

Main-thread work: 0.8 s
A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 293 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
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.785
0.785The layout shifts by 0.785 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.8 s
4.8 sYour largest element takes 4.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 4.8 s
4.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
3 checks passed
Speed Index: 2.8 s
2.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 2.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s
0.9 sThe first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Emerald_Cut_Dog_Tag_Photo_Pendant_-_Gold_w_photo.jpg 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 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.36 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.36 g of CO₂e: 43.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.3 MB in 152 requests
1.3 MBYour homepage downloads 1.3 MB in 152 requests on a phone: other files 632 KiB (65), scripts 315 KiB (42) and images 202 KiB (14). That is a lean page.
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
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
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 checks passed
43 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “PendantStudio”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
90 internal links, 2 external
The homepage links to 90 pages on pendantstudio.com and 2 external pages.

Other pages
1 page without a title
https://pendantstudio.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://pendantstudio.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
14 pages without a meta description
https://pendantstudio.com/collections/best-sellers, https://pendantstudio.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/photo-pendants, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/heart-photo-pendants, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/circle-photo-pendants and https://pendantstudio.com/collections/square-photo-pendant and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://pendantstudio.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
5 pages slow to respond
https://pendantstudio.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/rings-bracelets, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/chains, https://pendantstudio.com/collections/dog-tags and https://pendantstudio.com/collections/mens-collection took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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.
Only about 106 words
The homepage has only about 106 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
2 checks passed
10 calls to action

2 short forms

1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Meta Pixel (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.
8 cookies set on arrival
8Opening the homepage sets 8 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected

5 other companies contacted

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 pendantstudio.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
