Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.5 s · 2.0 MB90 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.0 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.9 s · 717 KiBAbout 717 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 42
42/100Your mobile performance score is 42 (desktop: 68). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Facebook and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 776 ms
776 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 776 ms of main-thread work and 861 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.
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 30 KiBAbout 30 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.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 270 KiB10 images could be 270 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.
Main-thread work: 3.9 s
A phone's processor spends 3.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 305 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,476 HTML elements
The page has 2,476 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Marketo adds 183 ms
183 msMarketo costs a phone 183 ms of main-thread work and 410 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.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
53 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 53 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
45 KiB45 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 68 but mobile only 42. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 13.6 MB in 161 requests
13.6 MBYour homepage downloads 13.6 MB in 161 requests on a phone: images 11.2 MB (48), scripts 1.8 MB (51) and fonts 437 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (304 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.9 g of CO₂ per visit
3.87 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.87 g of CO₂e: 464.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Headings should not be empty: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text

SEO
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization, Product, WebPage and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Product: no offers (price) block”.

AI search readiness
