Speed

3 to fix80
  • 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

    650 ms · 291 KiB

    8 images could be 291 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    160 ms · 51 KiB

    About 51 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 160 ms faster on a phone.

  • 4 third-party services on the page

    4 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and spicegems.org and others), adding 285 KiB and 124 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    10 ms · 46 KiB

    About 46 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 10 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    19 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (19 KiB).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 407 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix77
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Your 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.

  • Speed Index: 4.3 s

    4.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.9 s

    4.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.9 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
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix97
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    PILLAR_GEL30_PDP-_1.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).

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (455 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.56 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.56 g of CO₂e: 66.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Page weight: 2.0 MB in 161 requests

    2.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 161 requests on a phone: other files 724 KiB (78), images 625 KiB (15) and scripts 418 KiB (57). That is a lean page.

  • 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 9595
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (3 elements)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 14 links without text

    14 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 62 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 51 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: 51 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10093
  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 56 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 56 pages on pillarperformance.ae and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 131 characters

    Your meta description is 131 characters: “A leader in sports micronutrition with products for joint health, recovery, energy and immunity. Developed and trusted …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “PILLAR Performance UAE PILLAR Performance UAE”.

  • Title: 43 characters

    Your title is a healthy 43 characters: “PILLAR Performance – PILLAR Performance UAE”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://pillarperformance.ae/.

  • 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://pillarperformance.ae/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (642 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix65
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to /collections/vendors, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 5 pages without a meta description

    /collections/all-products, /blogs/performance-hub, /pages/habit-stacker, /collections/recovery and /collections/perform have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /blogs/performance-hub has 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 24 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • 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.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 11 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9291
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://tablepress.identixweb.com/static/css/tablepress.css' from origin 'https://pillarpe…”.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    28 of 29 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://pillarperformance.ae/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en&region_country=AE.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (pillarperformance.ae).

  • Valid certificate (64 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for pillarperformance.ae and is valid for another 64 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://pillarperformance.ae redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 35 links work

    All 35 links checked from your homepage (30 internal, 5 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    pillarperformance.ae has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • 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 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 205 words

    The homepage has only about 205 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
  • 8 calls to action

    The homepage has 8 calls to action, for example “Shop All”, “Shop by goal” and “Shop by category”.

  • 5 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: a star rating and “OVER 5000 REVIEWS”.

Email authentication

1 to fix70
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be pillarperformance.ae is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

  • Email authentication score: 70/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

2 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 +a +mx +ip4:192.250.230.165 include:spf.mysecurecloudhost.com ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “default”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo (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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 5 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.

Apps your storefront loads

Klaviyo Email Marketing Sms · Variant Image Wizard Swatch · Geoip Country Redirect · Judge Me Reviews · Itable

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info

Upkeep, stack and company

No signs of neglect in what was checked: the copyright year, CMS and plugin versions, and jQuery.
