Speed

7 to fix65
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 273 KiB

    About 273 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • 3,227 HTML elements

    The page has 3,227 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    750 ms · 327 KiB

    26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (327 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 65

    65/100

    Your mobile performance score is 65. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    708 KiB

    23 images could be 708 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (alia-prod.com, truyo.com and Klaviyo and others), adding 947 KiB and 603 ms of main-thread time.

  • Main-thread work: 3.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 8 KiB

    8 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 127 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Render-blocking requests

    50 ms

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 50 ms.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    29 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 29 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.

  • Forced reflow

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

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 5.8 MB in 424 requests

    5.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.8 MB in 424 requests on a phone: images 3.3 MB (125), scripts 1.1 MB (97) and other files 966 KiB (142). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (226 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.

  • About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.64 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.64 g of CO₂e: 196.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

10 to fixGoogle 8787
  • Interactive controls must not be nested (4 elements)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (3 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 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)

    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.

  • 14 links without text

    14 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 53 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 62 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 passed and 9 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8587
  • Title is long (70 characters)

    Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “SeaVees Official | Sneakers and Slip Ons | Legendary Style and Comfort”.

  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (OnlineStore, Organization, WebPage and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("//www.seavees.com/cdn/shop/files/seavees-logo.png?v=177…”.

  • 1 link with vague text

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

    The homepage links to 237 pages on seavees.com and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 157 characters

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,739 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.seavees.com/llms.txt (9 KiB, 22 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix88
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://www.seavees.com/collections/womens-flats is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://www.seavees.com/collections/womens-flats, https://www.seavees.com/collections/womens-slip-ons and https://www.seavees.com/collections/womens-lace-up-sneakers have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • About 952 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 952 words of visible text.

  • Urgency cues

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

4 checks passed

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 82 testimonial or review blocks and 12 customer or partner logos.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

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

  • 33 cookies set on arrival

    33

    Opening the homepage sets 33 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.

  • 47 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 47 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 seavees.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 6 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
