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
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.8 s · 615 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (615 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 350 KiBAbout 350 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 43
43/100Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.2 s
A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 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 (accessibilityassistant.com, Shopify and Attentive and others), adding 1.4 MB and 951 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
accessibilityassistant.com adds 474 ms
474 msaccessibilityassistant.com costs a phone 474 ms of main-thread work and 381 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 393 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Shopify adds 322 ms
322 msShopify costs a phone 322 ms of main-thread work and 396 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.
2,976 HTML elements
The page has 2,976 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Attentive adds 126 ms
126 msAttentive costs a phone 126 ms of main-thread work and 459 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.
Improve image delivery
121 KiB6 images could be 121 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
10 KiBAbout 10 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.
Minify CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Real-user LCP: 5.1 s
5.1 sReal visitors wait 5.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 5.1 s
5.1 sReal visitors see the first content after 5.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.6 s
14.6 sYour largest element takes 14.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Speed Index: 12.2 s
12.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 12.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 18.5 s
18.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.7 s
3.7 sThe first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 625 ms
625 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 625 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user TTFB: 1.0 s
1.0 sReal visitors wait 1.0 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
8 images without width and height
8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 150 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.8 s to 3.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real-user INP: 178 ms
178 msReal visitors wait 178 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user CLS: 0.00
0.00For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 247 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 247 requests on a phone: images 1.4 MB (72), scripts 1.2 MB (61) and other files 578 KiB (58). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
RM36_Web_Mobile_5X_V2.webp 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 (72 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.
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (87 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.07 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.07 g of CO₂e: 129.0 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
119 text elements with low contrast
119 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
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.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
44 images without alt text
44 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
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.
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.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
1 checks passed
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (221 characters)
Your meta description is 221 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://shop.restomods.com)”.
6 links with vague text
6 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
224 internal links, 18 external
The homepage links to 224 pages on restomods.com and 18 external pages.
5 checks passed
Title: 62 characters
Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “RestoMods - Restored and Modified, Better than New – Restomods”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://restomods.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found

AI search readiness
4 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,986 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://restomods.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 11 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
15 pages without a meta description
https://restomods.com/collections/best-sellers, https://restomods.com/collections/hoodies, https://restomods.com/collections/shirts, https://restomods.com/collections/jackets, https://restomods.com/collections/hats and https://restomods.com/collections/beanies and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

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: 7 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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.
About 1,406 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,406 words of visible text.
Urgency cues
The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).
5 checks passed

1 checks passed
No known trackers before consent
No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
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 restomods.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
