Speed

7 to fix74
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.2 s

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 359 KiB

    55 images could be 359 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 73 KiB

    About 73 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Google CDN and others), adding 3.0 MB and 102 ms of main-thread time.

  • Shopify adds 64 ms

    64 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 64 ms of main-thread work and 2.8 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.

  • 2,035 HTML elements

    The page has 2,035 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    100 ms · 10 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10 KiB).

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 95 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    50 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 356 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 11 ms

    11 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 11 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix68
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.7 s

    7.7 s

    Your largest element takes 7.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 7.8 s

    7.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 7.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 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: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.7 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 45 ms

    45 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 45 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.8 MB in 302 requests

    4.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.8 MB in 302 requests on a phone: images 3.2 MB (110), other files 938 KiB (87) and scripts 464 KiB (72). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.37 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.37 g of CO₂e: 164.0 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

4 to fixGoogle 9394
  • ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name (84 elements)

    ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name: 84 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 36 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 26 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 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.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9278
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (10 characters)

    Your title is only 10 characters: “PerChartMD”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 46 internal links, 1 external

    The homepage links to 46 pages on perchartmd.com and 1 external page.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://perchartmd.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://perchartmd.com/sitemap.xml.

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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (573 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

5 to fix67
  • 1 page without a title

    https://perchartmd.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://perchartmd.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://perchartmd.com/collections/signature-collection, https://perchartmd.com/pages/contact, https://perchartmd.com/customer_authentication/redirect and https://perchartmd.com/collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 10 pages share a meta description

    https://perchartmd.com/products/3-stages-of-residency-tee, https://perchartmd.com/products/another-beautiful-day-ruined-by-a-2-a-m-page-tee, https://perchartmd.com/products/advanced-hepatology-tee, https://perchartmd.com/products/authorization-denied-tee, https://perchartmd.com/products/back-to-back-shifts-tee and https://perchartmd.com/products/billing-codes-don-t-understand-you-tee and 4 others use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://perchartmd.com/collections/signature-collection, https://perchartmd.com/customer_authentication/redirect and https://perchartmd.com/collections/all have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 22 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 6 small tap targets

    6 of 19 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • 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 241 words

    The homepage has only about 241 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.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “SHOP NOW” and “Contact information”.

  • 6 short forms

    6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo and 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

    8

    Opening the homepage sets 8 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.

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 2 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
