redweed.com website review

17 images could be 540 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.

The page has 1,765 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 52 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

4 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, shop.app and weglot.com and others), adding 75 KiB and 42 ms of main-thread time.

3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (9 KiB).

7 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

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

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 7.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 7.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The layout shifts by 0.238 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

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

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.

15 images (2.1 MB) are 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.

Your homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 198 requests on a phone: images 1.0 MB (36), other files 744 KiB (81) and scripts 171 KiB (40). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

shutterstock_2139611151.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).

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.61 g of CO₂e: 73.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

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

1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

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

The homepage links to 55 pages on redweed.com and 6 external pages.

There is no https://redweed.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.

Your homepage links to https://redweed.com/policies/refund-policy, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

https://redweed.com/collections/all has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://redweed.com/collections/all, https://redweed.com/collections/fleurs-cbd, https://redweed.com/collections/resines-cbd and https://redweed.com/collections/huiles-cbd have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 30 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 689 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 4 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
