Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 924 KiBAbout 924 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.1 s
A phone's processor spends 9.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.7 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 (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 2.1 MB and 2.3 s of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 766 ms
766 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 766 ms of main-thread work and 740 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 568 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Google Tag Manager adds 489 ms
489 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 489 ms of main-thread work and 301 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
509 KiB22 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (509 KiB).
Facebook adds 392 ms
392 msFacebook costs a phone 392 ms of main-thread work and 228 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.
Shopify adds 219 ms
219 msShopify costs a phone 219 ms of main-thread work and 448 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.
2,451 HTML elements
The page has 2,451 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
109 KiB3 images could be 109 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).
Reduce unused CSS
35 KiBAbout 35 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
13 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 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.
Minify CSS
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Speed Index: 14.3 s

Total Blocking Time: 2.3 s
2.3 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 2.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.9 s
5.9 sYour largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Gingerbread cookie and Santa's hand holding a Santa's Coffe…”.
First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s
2.6 sThe first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001
0.001The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.1 MB in 237 requests
4.1 MBYour homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 237 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (78), other files 1,019 KiB (84) and images 486 KiB (15). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
media_3fa6efb5-fff9-4b12-9c31-e0326307b831.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.17 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.17 g of CO₂e: 140.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

8 pages without a meta description
