Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.7 s · 1.7 MBAbout 1.7 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.7 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
3.6 s · 1.3 MB45 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.3 MB).
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.6 s
A phone's processor spends 6.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and audioeye.com and others), adding 2.6 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 360 KiB10 images could be 360 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 474 ms
474 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 474 ms of main-thread work and 494 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
300 ms · 136 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 136 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 129 KiBAbout 129 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.
Facebook adds 314 ms
314 msFacebook costs a phone 314 ms of main-thread work and 283 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.
audioeye.com adds 278 ms
278 msaudioeye.com costs a phone 278 ms of main-thread work and 301 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 306 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
rebuyengine.com adds 205 ms
205 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 205 ms of main-thread work and 531 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.
1,866 HTML elements
The page has 1,866 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 145 ms
145 msKlaviyo costs a phone 145 ms of main-thread work and 315 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.
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 JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.2 MB in 475 requests
7.2 MBYour homepage downloads 7.2 MB in 475 requests on a phone: scripts 3.6 MB (183), images 1.9 MB (58) and other files 1,005 KiB (190). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images far larger than shown
35 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example [email protected] at 1,500 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 35 KiB.
7 images below the first screen load straight away
7 images further down the page (313 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit
2.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.03 g of CO₂e: 243.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
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.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 56 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
17 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 18 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 17 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO

AI search readiness

Other pages
5 pages without a meta description

Content and conversion

No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No map or directions link

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.

Security, domain, email and software versions
