Speed

11 to fix53
  • Improve image delivery

    1.4 s · 1.4 MB

    24 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 6.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.8 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 (rebuyengine.com, Shopify and Attentive and others), adding 2.8 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 53

    53/100

    Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    850 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

  • rebuyengine.com adds 486 ms

    486 ms

    rebuyengine.com costs a phone 486 ms of main-thread work and 725 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    559 KiB

    About 559 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    513 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (513 KiB).

  • Shopify adds 246 ms

    246 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 246 ms of main-thread work and 1.4 MB 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 310 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Attentive adds 213 ms

    213 ms

    Attentive costs a phone 213 ms of main-thread work and 623 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 108 KiB

    About 108 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    29 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 29 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix52
  • Time to Interactive: 19.6 s

    19.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 19.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.3 s

    6.3 s

    Your largest element takes 6.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “White Oak kitchen island and hood with white cabinetry”.

  • Speed Index: 9.2 s

    9.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 636 ms

    636 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 636 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 6 images without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    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.

2 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.3 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 4.9 MB in 231 requests

    4.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.9 MB in 231 requests on a phone: images 2.4 MB (37), scripts 1.1 MB (63) and other files 926 KiB (102). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    71 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example WNK32-WOAK-_-Box-3D-White-Oak_800x800.png at 800 px wide, shown at 142 px. Resized copies would save about 71 KiB.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (30 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.40 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.40 g of CO₂e: 168.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

Google 100100
  • 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 28 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 17 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 17 passed and 0 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 9280
  • Canonical points to another host

    Your canonical URL points to retique.com, not retiqueit.net, so Google may credit that host instead.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Retique It® RETIQUE IT®” and “Put a fresh coatof wood on it.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (161 characters)

    Your meta description is 161 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://retique.com)”.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 37 internal links, 20 external

    The homepage links to 37 pages on retiqueit.net and 20 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Title: 63 characters

    Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “Liquid Wood Finish for Furniture, Cabinets & More | Retique It®”.

  • 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

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://retiqueit.net/sitemap.xml.

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: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and description; contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (535 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://retiqueit.net/llms.txt (7 KiB, 27 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://retiqueit.net/apps/my/courses/list and https://retiqueit.net/collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 4 pages without an H1

    https://retiqueit.net/pages/shop, https://retiqueit.net/pages/video-gallery, https://retiqueit.net/pages/instructions-home and https://retiqueit.net/apps/my/courses/list have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://retiqueit.net/pages/video-gallery has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 22 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • 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 288 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 288 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Learn more” and “Shop DIY Art & Decor”.

  • 12 calls to action

    The homepage has 12 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Contact Us” and “Learn more”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Meta Pixel.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Pinterest Tag and 1 more (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.

  • 30 cookies set on arrival

    30

    Opening the homepage sets 30 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.

  • 34 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 34 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 retiqueit.net, 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 11 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
