Speed
Improve image delivery
700 ms · 581 KiB18 images could be 581 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 700 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 127 KiBAbout 127 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
500 ms · 93 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (93 KiB).
Duplicated JavaScript
150 ms · 28 KiB28 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (wholesalegorilla.app, Shopify and textify-cdn.com and others), adding 348 KiB and 120 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
57 KiBAbout 57 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 53 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 10.7 s
10.7 sYour largest element takes 10.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Stickers”.

Largest content (LCP) got 24% slower for real visitors
+24%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 0.8 s to 0.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Speed Index: 5.3 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.

Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.7 MB in 211 requests
2.7 MBYour homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 211 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (23), other files 823 KiB (113) and scripts 359 KiB (42). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
IMG_4799.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 (210 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 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.77 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.77 g of CO₂e: 92.7 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
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 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.
7 form fields without a label
7 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 22 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 4 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
