Speed
Shopify adds 1.5 s
1.5 sShopify costs a phone 1.5 s of main-thread work and 321 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
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, 3.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,570 HTML elements
The page has 3,570 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 (Shopify, Google Tag Manager and Clarity and others), adding 1.4 MB and 2.4 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 432 KiBAbout 432 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 493 ms
493 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 493 ms of main-thread work and 535 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
450 ms · 84 KiBAbout 84 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 165 KiB3 images could be 165 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
207 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (207 KiB).
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 188 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
47 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 47 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
19 KiB19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.4 MB in 250 requests
7.4 MBYour homepage downloads 7.4 MB in 250 requests on a phone: fonts 3.6 MB (7), scripts 1.5 MB (78) and images 1.2 MB (35). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.1 g of CO₂ per visit
2.11 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.11 g of CO₂e: 252.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
7 tap targets too small
7 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
6 images without alt text
6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail 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.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
40 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 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
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (8 characters)
Your title is only 8 characters: “sailfish”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
199 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 199 pages on sailfish.com and 10 external pages.

Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.sailfish.com/en and https://www.sailfish.com/en/collections all use the title “sailfish”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page without a meta description
https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/service has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
6 pages without an H1
https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/sailfish-swim-tour-2027, https://www.sailfish.com/en/collections, https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/service, https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/sailfish-x-challenge-roth-kollektion, https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/accessoires and https://www.sailfish.com/en/pages/sailfish-refurbished-wetsuits have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
