Speed

11 to fix68
  • Main-thread work: 5.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 3,098 HTML elements

    The page has 3,098 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 (Yotpo, Klaviyo and equally.ai and others), adding 8.5 MB and 575 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 1,019 KiB

    22 images could be 1,019 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    700 ms · 620 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (620 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 68

    68/100

    Your mobile performance score is 68. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Shopify adds 60 ms

    60 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 60 ms of main-thread work and 7.6 MB 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 JavaScript

    290 ms · 424 KiB

    About 424 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 290 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    550 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    440 ms · 102 KiB

    About 102 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 440 ms faster on a phone.

  • Yotpo adds 244 ms

    244 ms

    Yotpo costs a phone 244 ms of main-thread work and 515 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 50 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 50 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 13 long tasks on the main thread

    13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 107 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    16 KiB

    16 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 38 ms

    38 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 38 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix64
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 12.4 s

    12.4 s

    Your largest element takes 12.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “AR wine bundle”.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.0 s

    18.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 182 ms

    182 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 182 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.5 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.028

    0.028

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.028, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix69
  • Page weight: 12.9 MB in 252 requests

    12.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 12.9 MB in 252 requests on a phone: media 7.3 MB (1), images 3.2 MB (37) and scripts 1.2 MB (106). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Hero_Photo_bb63c436-919f-4848-bf75-5a3e134a097a_540x.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (61 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.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (30 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.66 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.66 g of CO₂e: 439.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8292
  • Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents (3 elements)

    Certain ARIA roles must be contained by particular parents: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (30 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 30 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Heading levels should only increase by one (3 elements)

    Heading levels should only increase by one: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

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

  • 3 links without text

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

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 10 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 7 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 9277
  • Title is long (70 characters)

    Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Rabble Wine - Sustainably Sourced, Rabble Rousin' Wines – Rabble Wines”.

  • No structured data

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

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“We Are Rabble” and “Wines Made inCollaboration withMother Nature”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (260 characters)

    Your meta description is 260 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 2 links with vague text

    2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 30 internal links, 21 external

    The homepage links to 30 pages on rabblewine.com and 21 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://rabblewine.com/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://rabblewine.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

2 to fix75
  • 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.

  • Some text only appears after JavaScript runs

    39%

    The HTML your server sends has 323 of the 835 words a browser shows. AI crawlers don't run JavaScript, so they miss the rest.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://rabblewine.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

1 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.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://rabblewine.com/collections/rabble-ar has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://rabblewine.com/collections/rabble-ar has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 9 internal pages checked

    We fetched 9 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    1 page of 9 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.

  • Titles are unique

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 1 page that loaded have a <title>.

Content and conversion

2 to fix60
  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 835 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 835 words of visible text.

3 checks passed

    Analytics detected: Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar and TikTok Pixel.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and 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.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 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.

  • 28 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 28 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions
