One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Main-thread work: 6.8 s
A phone's processor spends 6.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,110 HTML elements
The page has 3,110 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, Hotjar and Facebook and others), adding 1.9 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
690 ms · 135 KiBAbout 135 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 690 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
795 KiBAbout 795 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Google Tag Manager adds 426 ms
426 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 426 ms of main-thread work and 544 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
453 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (453 KiB).
Hotjar adds 330 ms
330 msHotjar costs a phone 330 ms of main-thread work and 65 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.
Facebook adds 250 ms
250 msFacebook costs a phone 250 ms of main-thread work and 231 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.
Klaviyo adds 167 ms
167 msKlaviyo costs a phone 167 ms of main-thread work and 316 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.
Shopify adds 127 ms
127 msShopify costs a phone 127 ms of main-thread work and 347 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 221 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
53 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 53 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
22 KiB22 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.
Minify CSS
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 24.0 s
24.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 24.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.5 s
8.5 sYour largest element takes 8.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Total Blocking Time: 824 ms
824 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 824 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 5.9 s
5.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.9 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
First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s
1.5 sThe first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.039

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.6 MB in 376 requests
4.6 MBYour homepage downloads 4.6 MB in 376 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (184), other files 1.1 MB (139) and images 504 KiB (28). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images far larger than shown
43 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Frame_1321322778.jpg at 1,200 px wide, shown at 320 px. Resized copies would save about 43 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (89 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 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit
1.30 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.30 g of CO₂e: 155.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 9 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
