Speed

8 to fix60
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.1 s · 553 KiB

    About 553 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    2.1 s · 371 KiB

    16 images could be 371 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 60

    60/100

    Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    950 ms

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 96 KiB

    About 96 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Cloudflare CDN and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.1 MB and 323 ms of main-thread time.

  • Shopify adds 156 ms

    156 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 156 ms of main-thread work and 846 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 830 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 12 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (12 KiB).

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 133 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    50 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify CSS

    7 KiB

    7 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.

  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix66
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.4 s

    18.4 s

    Your largest element takes 18.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Slideshow Image 1”.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.4 s

    18.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.1 s

    7.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 104 ms

    104 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 104 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 15.8 MB in 244 requests

    15.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 15.8 MB in 244 requests on a phone: media 12.6 MB (1), scripts 1.2 MB (83) and other files 930 KiB (116). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    banner_happi_class_5.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).

  • About 4.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    4.47 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.47 g of CO₂e: 536.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8488
  • 4 tap targets too small

    4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Hidden but focusable

    3 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 3 text elements with low contrast

    3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 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.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (15 elements).

1 checks passed
  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 7 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9278
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is long (70 characters)

    Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “PLAYMAXX: Art Toys & Collectibles | Limited Editions & Exclusive Drops”.

  • Meta description is long (226 characters)

    Your meta description is 226 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 58 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 58 pages on playmaxx.co and 3 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://playmaxx.co/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://playmaxx.co/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (397 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://playmaxx.co/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://playmaxx.co/collections/all, https://playmaxx.co/pages/contact, https://playmaxx.co/collections/happi-class and https://playmaxx.co/collections/ultra have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 5 pages without an H1

    https://playmaxx.co/collections, https://playmaxx.co/collections/all, https://playmaxx.co/pages/contact, https://playmaxx.co/collections/happi-class and https://playmaxx.co/collections/ultra have 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.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 8185
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 21 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Synchronous `XMLHttpRequest` on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to…”).

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix50
  • 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 social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 342 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 342 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact” and “Join”.

  • 6 short forms

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager and 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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 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.

  • 18 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at playmaxx.co, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 12 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

Apps your storefront loads

Inbox · Countdown Sami · Ta Banner Pop Up · Instafeed · Klaviyo Email Marketing Sms · Sami Wholesale · Maxbundle · Simplee Memberships · Countdown Timer Bar Samita · Forms · Quantity Break Limit Purchase · Deco Labels Badges

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
