savagejerky.com website review

A phone's processor spends 11.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

The page has 3,517 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (myshopify.com, Google Tag Manager and alia-prod.com and others), adding 2.0 MB and 2.3 s of main-thread time.

26 images could be 864 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 794 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.

myshopify.com costs a phone 702 ms of main-thread work and 8 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.

30 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (509 KiB).

6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 473 ms of main-thread work and 514 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.

alia-prod.com costs a phone 270 ms of main-thread work and 744 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 costs a phone 215 ms of main-thread work and 340 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 block the main thread while loading, the longest for 203 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 53 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

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

Polyfills for old browsers add 49 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

The page becomes fully interactive after 29.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 8.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Your largest element takes 4.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 153 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

The first text or image appears after 2.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 6.0 MB in 348 requests on a phone: scripts 2.4 MB (100), images 2.1 MB (42) and other files 844 KiB (176). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

svg_slider_bacon_jerky_mobile.jpg 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).

2 images (96 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.69 g of CO₂e: 203.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

7 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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.

1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Your title is 74 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Beef & Bacon Jerky – All Natural, Made in USA, Bold Flavors – Savage Jerky”.

Your meta description is 189 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 114 pages on savagejerky.com and 3 external pages.

https://savagejerky.com/pages/custom-bundle, https://savagejerky.com/pages/about-us, https://savagejerky.com/pages/wholesale-1, https://savagejerky.com/collections/beef-jerky, https://savagejerky.com/collections/variety-packs and https://savagejerky.com/collections/rub and 4 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://savagejerky.com/pages/custom-bundle, https://savagejerky.com/pages/about-us and https://savagejerky.com/pages/wholesale-1 have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

https://savagejerky.com/pages/custom-bundle has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 56 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

27 of 109 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage carries about 611 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 2 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.

Opening the homepage sets 22 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 51 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
