Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.5 s · 176 KiB41 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (176 KiB).
4,395 HTML elements
The page has 4,395 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 70
70/100Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
500 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 53 KiBAbout 53 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 145 KiBAbout 145 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.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (FontAwesome CDN, Affirm and New Relic and others), adding 656 KiB and 208 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 98 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
81 KiB2 images could be 81 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).
Minify CSS
9 KiB9 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Legacy JavaScript
6 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 6 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.
2 checks passed

Images and page weight
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.36 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.36 g of CO₂e: 43.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
42 form fields without a label

ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (17 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 17 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
3 links without text
3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text

47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 5 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 (163 characters)
Your meta description is 163 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
12 links with vague text
12 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
9 links crawlers can't follow
9 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
