Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Main-thread work: 4.3 s
A phone's processor spends 4.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, synctrack.io and shop.app and others), adding 836 KiB and 610 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
600 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.
Shopify adds 501 ms
501 msShopify costs a phone 501 ms of main-thread work and 668 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.
2,505 HTML elements
The page has 2,505 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
50 ms · 159 KiB9 images could be 159 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
81 KiBAbout 81 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 72 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
50 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (50 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
45 KiBAbout 45 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 425 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 425 requests on a phone: other files 1.2 MB (227), scripts 761 KiB (157) and images 357 KiB (19). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.75 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.75 g of CO₂e: 89.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (7 elements)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Links must have discernible text (7 elements)
Links must have discernible text: 7 elements on the page fail 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 (4 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 86 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (69 characters)
Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Swab-its® Foam Swabs | Made in USA Lint-Free Precision Cleaning Swabs”.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Swab-its”, “Precision Foam Swabs. Made in the USA.” and “Precision. Performance.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (306 characters)
Your meta description is 306 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
229 internal links, 21 external
The homepage links to 229 pages on reel-tips.com and 21 external pages.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
Only about 24 words
The homepage has only about 24 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.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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
14 calls to action
The homepage has 14 calls to action, for example “Shop by Industry”, “Shop by Part Number” and “Shop by Caliber”.
68 short forms
68 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager 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.
11 cookies set on arrival
11Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies, 7 of them by other companies (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.
11 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 11 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 reel-tips.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
