Speed
Main-thread work: 6.5 s
A phone's processor spends 6.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,210 HTML elements
The page has 3,210 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 1.2 MB36 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.2 MB).
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (POWr, Yotpo and rebuyengine.com and others), adding 1.4 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56 (desktop: 70). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
200 ms · 340 KiB13 images could be 340 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
Yotpo adds 191 ms
191 msYotpo costs a phone 191 ms of main-thread work and 408 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.
rebuyengine.com adds 174 ms
174 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 174 ms of main-thread work and 323 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
150 ms · 100 KiBAbout 100 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 178 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
94 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 94 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Duplicated JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.7 MB in 360 requests
4.7 MBYour homepage downloads 4.7 MB in 360 requests on a phone: scripts 2.6 MB (121), images 910 KiB (37) and other files 814 KiB (143). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.34 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.34 g of CO₂e: 161.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
18 tap targets too small
18 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
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.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
48 links without text
48 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
5 form fields without a label
5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6 and h2 → h6), 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).

52 automated accessibility rules passed

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

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.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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 876 words of copy
The homepage carries about 876 words of visible text.
5 checks passed

31 cookies set on arrival
31Opening the homepage sets 31 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.
67 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 67 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
