Speed

7 to fix73

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.0 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.

  • 3,031 HTML elements

    The page has 3,031 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    400 ms · 188 KiB

    9 images could be 188 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and gorgias.chat and others), adding 4.4 MB and 7 ms of main-thread time.

  • Shopify adds 7 ms

    7 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 7 ms of main-thread work and 4.4 MB 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, 213 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 54 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    13 KiB

    About 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    9 KiB

    5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (9 KiB).

  • 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.

1 checks passed

  • Server response: 26 ms

    26 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 26 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix67

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 30.8 s

    30.8 s

    Your largest element takes 30.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “🔄”.

  • Time to Interactive: 31.0 s

    31.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 31.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.4 s

    3.4 s

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

  • Largest content (LCP) got 16% slower for real visitors

    +16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.5 s to 3.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 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: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 4 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70

  • Page weight: 21.6 MB in 146 requests

    21.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 21.6 MB in 146 requests on a phone: media 15.7 MB (4), fonts 4.0 MB (20) and images 955 KiB (31). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 6.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    6.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 6.13 g of CO₂e: 735.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 9294

  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 3 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 form fields without a label

    2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

1 checks passed

  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 8579

  • Title is long (78 characters)

    Your title is 78 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Seamless Women’s Shapewear | Comfy | Backed by Science | Pliē – Plie Shapewear”.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://www.plieaustralia.com.au)”.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 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.

  • 53 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 53 pages on plieshapewear.com and 8 external pages.

4 checks passed

  • Meta description: 149 characters

    Your meta description is 149 characters: “Crafted for comfort, made to perform. Pliē Shapewear offers seamless, targeted compression that supports you from morni…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.plieshapewear.com/.

  • 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://www.plieshapewear.com/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 (678 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

5 to fix63

  • 1 page without a title

    https://www.plieshapewear.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://www.plieshapewear.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 7 pages without a meta description

    https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/best-sellers, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/emana, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/bodysuit, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/bottoms, https://www.plieshapewear.com/pages/black-friday and https://www.plieshapewear.com/pages/shippingreturnexchange and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.plieshapewear.com/products/emana%C2%AE-body, whose canonical is https://www.plieshapewear.com/products/emana%c2%ae-body. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 15 pages without an H1

    https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/best-sellers, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/emana, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/bodysuit, https://www.plieshapewear.com/collections/bottoms, https://www.plieshapewear.com/pages/black-friday and https://www.plieshapewear.com/pages/our-story and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://www.plieshapewear.com/customer_authentication/redirect took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 20 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

2 checks passed

  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79

  • 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 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 368 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 368 words of visible text.

5 checks passed

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “T&Cs Apply”, “Contact Us” and “Try it Risk Free”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix

  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 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 plieshapewear.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
