One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Main-thread work: 4.9 s
A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
2.3 MB14 images could be 2.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (tailwindcss.com, Wistia and prettylitter.com and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
tailwindcss.com adds 628 ms
628 mstailwindcss.com costs a phone 628 ms of main-thread work and 124 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 JavaScript
481 KiBAbout 481 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Wistia adds 401 ms
401 msWistia costs a phone 401 ms of main-thread work and 338 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.
prettylitter.com adds 225 ms
225 msprettylitter.com costs a phone 225 ms of main-thread work and 308 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.
1,504 HTML elements
The page has 1,504 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
200 ms · 125 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (125 KiB).
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 195 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
23 KiBAbout 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Minify JavaScript
13 KiB13 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.

Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 12.8 s
12.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 822 ms
822 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 822 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 5.3 s
5.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 3.5 s
3.5 sYour largest element takes 3.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
23 images without width and height
23 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
2 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.016
0.016The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.016, good is under 0.1).
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.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.9 MB in 239 requests
10.9 MBYour homepage downloads 10.9 MB in 239 requests on a phone: images 4.9 MB (67), media 3.8 MB (1) and scripts 1.3 MB (66). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images over 500 KB
3 images weigh 2.1 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
29 images in older formats
29 images (4.7 MB) 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.
1 image far larger than shown
113 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example trusted_USA_today.png at 2,081 px wide, shown at 96 px. Resized copies would save about 113 KiB.
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (278 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.1 g of CO₂ per visit
3.09 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.09 g of CO₂e: 371.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Positive tabindex
28 elements have a tabindex above 0, which scrambles the keyboard order.
15 tap targets too small
15 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 (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 145 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 4 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Page is set to noindex
The robots meta tag says “noindex, nofollow”: Google is told not to list this page at all.
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
Blocked from indexing
Google's crawler is blocked from indexing this page.
Title is short (9 characters)
Your title is only 9 characters: “prettydev”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
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 (also missing: og:title, og:description), 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.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
