Improve image delivery
8.9 s · 2.3 MB13 images could be 2.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 8.9 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 408 KiBAbout 408 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 72
72/100Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
7 third-party services on the page
7 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, lovable.app and Trust Pilot and others), adding 2.7 MB and 341 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 267 ms
267 msShopify costs a phone 267 ms of main-thread work and 695 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.
lovable.app adds 65 ms
65 mslovable.app costs a phone 65 ms of main-thread work and 2.0 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.
Main-thread work: 2.0 s
A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 762 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,739 HTML elements
The page has 1,739 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 29 KiBAbout 29 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 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 137 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
47 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (47 KiB).
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.
