Speed

14 to fix48
  • Main-thread work: 10.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 10.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.0 s

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 48

    48/100

    Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 4,456 HTML elements

    The page has 4,456 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, tabarn.app and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.9 MB and 3.0 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 896 ms

    896 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 896 ms of main-thread work and 667 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

    956 KiB

    About 956 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • tabarn.app adds 885 ms

    885 ms

    tabarn.app costs a phone 885 ms of main-thread work and 131 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    510 KiB

    22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (510 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    413 KiB

    3 images could be 413 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 326 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Accessibe Accessibility Overlay adds 260 ms

    260 ms

    Accessibe Accessibility Overlay costs a phone 260 ms of main-thread work and 250 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.

  • Facebook adds 251 ms

    251 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 251 ms of main-thread work and 227 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.

  • Klaviyo adds 234 ms

    234 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 234 ms of main-thread work and 312 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 · 58 KiB

    About 58 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    63 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 63 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Minify CSS

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 29 ms

    29 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 29 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.9 s

    3.9 s

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 185 ms to 177 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.098

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 4.4 MB in 296 requests

    4.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 296 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (102), other files 861 KiB (154) and images 684 KiB (20). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.24 g of CO₂e: 148.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

10 to fixGoogle 8388
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    19 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 128 images without alt text

    128 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (53 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 53 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.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails 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.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    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.

  • 25 form fields without a label

    25 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 6 text elements with low contrast

    6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 3 links without text

    3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

1 checks passed
  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 7 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 7780
  • Title is long (68 characters)

    Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Rough Linen | Quality, 100% European Linen Bedding & Home Collection”.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • Meta description is long (310 characters)

    Your meta description is 310 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 2 links with vague text

    2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 172 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 172 pages on roughlinen.com and 0 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “20% off sitewide for a limited time”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.roughlinen.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

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.roughlinen.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

3 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,709 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.roughlinen.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.roughlinen.com/collections/linen-bedding-collection has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 50 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    29 of 32 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix67
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 14 testimonial or review blocks. 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.

  • A 22-field form

    Your longest form asks for 22 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.

  • 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 355 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 355 words of visible text.

  • Urgency cues

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

2 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP 20% OFF” and “SHOP BEST SELLERS”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Shop 20% off” and “SHOP BEST SELLERS”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (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.

  • 26 cookies set on arrival

    26

    Opening the homepage sets 26 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.

  • 51 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 51 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 roughlinen.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
