15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.2 s.

About 443 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

The HTML itself could arrive about 700 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

Reduce initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 688 ms on a phone.

77 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Your server takes 788 ms to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.

6 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, JSDelivr CDN and Google CDN and others), adding 176 KiB and 104 ms of main-thread time.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 69 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 22 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (12 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 7 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.88 g of CO₂e: 105.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Form elements should have a visible label: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 23 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

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.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
