Speed
Improve image delivery
1.0 s · 354 KiB13 images could be 354 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.
3,072 HTML elements
The page has 3,072 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 76
76/100Your mobile performance score is 76. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, loox.io and Klaviyo and others), adding 388 KiB and 276 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 19 KiBAbout 19 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
91 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (91 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
67 KiBAbout 67 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 62 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
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 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.

1.04 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.04 g of CO₂e: 124.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
12 tap targets too small
12 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
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.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

Every image has alt text
All 611 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
52 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Canonical points to another host
Your canonical URL points to pawz.com, not savethepawz.com, so Google may credit that host instead.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Pawz” and “New Year: Same Mission - Rescue animals and look …”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (244 characters)
Your meta description is 244 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://pawz.com)”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
148 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 148 pages on savethepawz.com and 6 external pages.
3 checks passed
Title: 47 characters
Your title is a healthy 47 characters: “Pawz® Official Site | Dog Mom Apparel and More!”.

XML sitemap found

AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
No llms.txt
There is no https://savethepawz.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 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 (2,179 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
https://savethepawz.com/collections/dog-dads has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
