seedsbydesign.com website review

9 images could be 758 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.5 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 975 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.

A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

About 25 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.

1 third-party service load with your homepage (Shopify), adding 64 KiB and 26 ms of main-thread time.

About 10 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 20 ms faster on a phone.

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 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4 KiB).

4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Your largest element takes 10.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 7.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 560 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

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.

Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 185 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (30), other files 764 KiB (96) and scripts 268 KiB (42). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example SBD_Horizontal_Logo.jpg at 2,592 px wide, shown at 113 px. Resized copies would save about 61 KiB.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Summary elements must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Headings skip levels (h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).

Your meta description is 300 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

The homepage links to 307 pages on seedsbydesign.com and 17 external pages.

https://seedsbydesign.com/collections/collard-seeds has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 150 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

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 ()”.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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

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

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

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 489 words of visible text.

Opening the homepage sets 4 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 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
