Speed

5 to fix88
  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 1.2 MB

    29 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 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 88

    88/100

    Your mobile performance score is 88. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    500 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 329 KiB

    About 329 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1,868 HTML elements

    The page has 1,868 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 (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and getgobot.com and others), adding 542 KiB and 325 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 29 KiB

    About 29 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 43 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (43 KiB).

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 84 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    11 KiB

    11 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 509 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix100

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

  • Real-user TTFB: 411 ms

    411 ms

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 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: 63 ms

    63 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 63 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 4.1 MB in 204 requests

    4.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 204 requests on a phone: images 2.4 MB (41), other files 798 KiB (110) and scripts 736 KiB (45). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 6 images far larger than shown

    364 KiB

    6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example [email protected] at 920 px wide, shown at 168 px. Resized copies would save about 364 KiB.

  • About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.16 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.16 g of CO₂e: 139.3 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 load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8990
  • 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.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA toggle fields must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 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.

  • 24 links without text

    24 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 42 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    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. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 10071
  • No H1 headline

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

  • Title is long (88 characters)

    Your title is 88 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “PlugYourHoles : Over 16 years selling plugs, gauges, tunnels & more! – PlugYourHoles.com”.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • Meta description is long (166 characters)

    Your meta description is 166 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 144 internal links, 10 external

    The homepage links to 144 pages on plugyourholes.com and 10 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://plugyourholes.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://plugyourholes.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

3 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 (626 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 63 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    5 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 5 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7791
  • Deprecated browser APIs

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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 direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • 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 390 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 390 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP ALL APPAREL”.

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Track My Order!”, “SHOP ALL APPAREL” and “Shop Random Bag of Plugs”.

  • 4 short forms

    4 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 plugyourholes.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
