Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
810 ms · 201 KiBAbout 201 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 810 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 63
63/100Your mobile performance score is 63. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
400 ms · 140 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (140 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 32 KiBAbout 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.2 s
A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 707 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,055 HTML elements
The page has 2,055 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 162 ms
162 msKlaviyo costs a phone 162 ms of main-thread work and 306 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.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and cloudfront.net and others), adding 595 KiB and 326 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 28 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 28 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 159 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
Improve image delivery
50 ms · 86 KiB1 image could be 86 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
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
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
biggest.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).
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.57 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.57 g of CO₂e: 67.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 2.0 MB in 175 requests
2.0 MBYour homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 175 requests on a phone: other files 747 KiB (90), scripts 693 KiB (64) and fonts 256 KiB (7). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
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.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (16 characters)
Your title is only 16 characters: “Raised by Wolves”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is short (35 characters)
Your meta description is only 35 characters: “Established 2008 Ottawa, ON, Canada”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
Structured data has 2 problems
Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("//raisedbywolves.ca/cdn/shop/files/rbw_logotype_rgb_332…”.
45 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 45 pages on raisedbywolves.ca and 4 external pages.
4 checks passed

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://raisedbywolves.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness

Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://raisedbywolves.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Best practices
13 small tap targets
13 of 25 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 85 words
The homepage has only about 85 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.
3 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP”.
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “SHOP” and “Contact”.
4 short forms
4 short forms (4 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before 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.
14 cookies set on arrival
14Opening the homepage sets 14 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.
20 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 20 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at raisedbywolves.ca, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.
