pl-line.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Improve image delivery
2.5 s · 1.2 MB42 images could be 1.2 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 44
44/100Your mobile performance score is 44. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.6 s
A phone's processor spends 7.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,547 HTML elements
The page has 3,547 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, Klaviyo and Shopify and others), adding 1.0 MB and 579 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
556 KiB22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (556 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 83 KiBAbout 83 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
120 ms · 360 KiBAbout 360 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 120 ms faster on a phone.
Klaviyo adds 177 ms
177 msKlaviyo costs a phone 177 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.
Shopify adds 88 ms
88 msShopify costs a phone 88 ms of main-thread work and 355 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.
Render-blocking requests
200 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 200 ms.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 195 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.2 MB in 487 requests
7.2 MBYour homepage downloads 7.2 MB in 487 requests on a phone: images 4.3 MB (109), scripts 1.6 MB (214) and other files 873 KiB (143). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit
2.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.03 g of CO₂e: 243.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

10 links without text

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
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 (pl-line.com).
Valid certificate (60 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for pl-line.com and is valid for another 60 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://pl-line.com 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 45 links work
All 45 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 5 external) answered without errors; 3 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
pl-line.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
3 checks passed
Domain is 27 years old
27 yearspl-line.com was registered in Aug 1999 through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only ssl.com, digicert.com, globalsign.com and letsencrypt.org to issue certificates for pl-line.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Aug 2027
pl-line.com is registered until Aug 2027.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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.
About 485 words of copy
The homepage carries about 485 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Contact us” and “Shop the Collection”.
7 calls to action
The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact us”, “Shop the Collection” and “SHOP THE LOOK”.
6 short forms
6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Opening hours shown
Your opening hours are on the homepage.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
No DMARC policy
pl-line.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.
SPF does not block other senders (?all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 a mx include:_spf.level27.be ip4:185.3.216.135 ?all”.
No DKIM key on the usual selectors
We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.
Email authentication score: 25/100
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.
