Speed

9 to fix51
  • Avoid multiple page redirects

    8.9 s

    The page goes through 2 redirects before it starts loading, costing about 8.9 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.4 s · 540 KiB

    About 540 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.

  • Main-thread work: 5.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 4,403 HTML elements

    The page has 4,403 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 (Cookiebot, undergroundshirts.com and Shopify and others), adding 2.5 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 51

    51/100

    Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • undergroundshirts.com adds 339 ms

    339 ms

    undergroundshirts.com costs a phone 339 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 MB 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.

  • Cookiebot adds 375 ms

    375 ms

    Cookiebot costs a phone 375 ms of main-thread work and 179 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 301 ms

    301 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 301 ms of main-thread work and 751 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.

  • 19 long tasks on the main thread

    19 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 222 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 23 KiB

    23 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    101 KiB

    About 101 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Document request latency

    50 ms

    The HTML itself could arrive about 50 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Minify CSS

    6 KiB

    6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Forced reflow

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

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.2 s

    6.2 s

    Your largest element takes 6.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The idea behind Sconnie Nation is simple. Anyone from Wisco…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.8 s).

  • Speed Index: 8.2 s

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 4.0 MB in 302 requests

    4.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 302 requests on a phone: scripts 2.2 MB (144), other files 693 KiB (97) and images 651 KiB (40). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    banner-local-mobile-011226.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 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.13 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.13 g of CO₂e: 135.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

1 to fix95
  • 4 tap targets too small

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 32 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10087
  • Canonical points to another host

    Your canonical URL points to shop.undergroundshirts.com, not sconnie.com, so Google may credit that host instead.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Underground Printing” and “Underground Printing”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 430 internal links, 15 external

    The homepage links to 430 pages on sconnie.com and 15 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 159 characters

    Your meta description is 159 characters: “We carry fresh, unique collegiate apparel as well as original state and local pride T-shirts. Free shipping on all orde…”.

  • Title: 56 characters

    Your title is a healthy 56 characters: “Collegiate & Local Pride Apparel by Underground Printing”.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://sconnie.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

3 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 (617 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://sconnie.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 129 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 7 small tap targets

    7 of 29 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix63
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: “200+ Teams”. 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.

  • Only about 150 words

    The homepage has only about 150 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Shop”.

  • 7 short forms

    7 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Cookiebot) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies, 7 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 18 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.

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 sconnie.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
