Render-blocking requests
1.1 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 91 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (91 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 51 KiBAbout 51 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 149 KiB5 images could be 149 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Fonts, Shopify and YouTube and others), adding 195 KiB and 0 ms of main-thread time.
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.

Images and page weight
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.32 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.32 g of CO₂e: 37.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.1 MB in 40 requests
1.1 MBYour homepage downloads 1.1 MB in 40 requests on a phone: images 540 KiB (9), scripts 405 KiB (22) and HTML 101 KiB (1). That is a lean page.
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
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
4 text elements with low contrast
4 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.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5), 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).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 32 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (86 characters)
Your title is 86 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Hand Crafted, small batch Cowboy Boots, Hats, Belts, Buckles and Bolos – Planet Cowboy”.
4 H1 headlines
There are 4 <h1> headlines (“LAST CALL! UP TO 70% OFF NOV 13TH AND 14TH AT OUR…”, “LAST CALL! UP TO 70% OFF NOV 13TH AND 14TH AT OUR…” and “Planet Cowboy”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (275 characters)
Your meta description is 275 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Product) but with 1 problem, for example “Product: image is not an absolute URL ("https:files/hbgc.jpg")”.
172 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 172 pages on planetcowboy.com and 6 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://planetcowboy.com/.
Open Graph tags complete

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://planetcowboy.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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 https://planetcowboy.com/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 (1,007 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Local business without LocalBusiness data

No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

7 checks passed

Security, domain, email and software versions
