Mobile performance score: 75
75/100Your mobile performance score is 75 (desktop: 92). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 478 KiB10 images could be 478 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Forter and ActiveCampaign and others), adding 1.1 MB and 470 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 380 ms
380 msShopify costs a phone 380 ms of main-thread work and 761 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 JavaScript
426 KiBAbout 426 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Main-thread work: 3.4 s
A phone's processor spends 3.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,652 HTML elements
The page has 1,652 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 43 KiBAbout 43 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 77 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
27 KiB10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (27 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
11 KiB11 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: 14.4 MB in 366 requests
14.4 MBYour homepage downloads 14.4 MB in 366 requests on a phone: media 10.7 MB (3), images 1.4 MB (26) and scripts 1.2 MB (162). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (87 KiB) is 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (24 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 4.1 g of CO₂ per visit
4.09 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.09 g of CO₂e: 491.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 241 words
The homepage has only about 241 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
2 checks passed
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “SHOP NOW”, “CONTACT” and “Sign up”.
10 short forms

19 cookies set on arrival
19Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
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.
32 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 32 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at schottnyc.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
