2.2 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 88
88/100Your mobile performance score is 88. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
468 KiB10 images could be 468 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
1,776 HTML elements
The page has 1,776 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Yotpo, Shopify and Adobe TypeKit and others), adding 417 KiB and 149 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 91 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
55 KiBAbout 55 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Reduce unused CSS
29 KiBAbout 29 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
20 KiB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (20 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.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 8.4 MB in 173 requests
8.4 MBYour homepage downloads 8.4 MB in 173 requests on a phone: media 6.1 MB (1), images 996 KiB (19) and other files 760 KiB (94). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (64 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 2.4 g of CO₂ per visit
2.38 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.38 g of CO₂e: 285.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
2 dropdowns have no label.
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
24 tap targets too small
24 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

Every image has alt text
All 55 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 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
Meta description is long (172 characters)
Your meta description is 172 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.

The homepage links to 114 pages on poilane.com and 16 external pages.

AI search readiness
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, sameAs (social profiles) and description; logo and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (804 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.poilane.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
7 pages share a meta description

A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 pages without an H1
https://www.poilane.com/collections/all and https://www.poilane.com/pages/nos-boutiques have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
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.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address 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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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 927 words of copy
The homepage carries about 927 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact”.
4 short forms
4 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Meta Pixel (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.
10 cookies set on arrival
10Opening the homepage sets 10 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.
10 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 10 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 poilane.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.
