Speed

15 to fix36
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.9 s · 1.9 MB

    About 1.9 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 11.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 11.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 36

    36/100

    Your mobile performance score is 36. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 5,783 HTML elements

    The page has 5,783 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 (Amazon Web Services, YouTube and Shopify and others), adding 3.6 MB and 2.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 955 KiB

    15 images could be 955 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    150 ms · 880 KiB

    25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (880 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    590 ms · 255 KiB

    About 255 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 590 ms faster on a phone.

  • YouTube adds 505 ms

    505 ms

    YouTube costs a phone 505 ms of main-thread work and 992 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.

  • Amazon Web Services adds 560 ms

    560 ms

    Amazon Web Services costs a phone 560 ms of main-thread work and 28 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 449 ms

    449 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 449 ms of main-thread work and 1.0 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 376 ms

    376 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 376 ms of main-thread work and 487 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 407 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • route.com adds 289 ms

    289 ms

    route.com costs a phone 289 ms of main-thread work and 542 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    140 ms · 21 KiB

    21 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    48 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 48 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify CSS

    9 KiB

    9 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 22 ms

    22 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 22 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

11 to fix0
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.93

    0.93

  • Time to Interactive: 39.0 s

    39.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 39.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 11.7 s

    11.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.8 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Real visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 204 ms

    204 ms

    Real visitors wait 204 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 41% slower for real visitors

    +41%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 155 ms to 228 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

3 checks passed
  • Real-user FCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 19% faster for real visitors

    -19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.5 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.029

    0.029

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.029, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix43
  • Page weight: 7.6 MB in 408 requests

    7.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.6 MB in 408 requests on a phone: scripts 4.0 MB (134), images 2.0 MB (46) and other files 1.0 MB (174). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (862 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.

  • 2 images below the first screen load straight away

    2 images further down the page (630 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    222 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example c_pick-up02.webp at 1,600 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 222 KiB.

  • About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.16 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.16 g of CO₂e: 259.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 8290
  • 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.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 51 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 9 failed. 6 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

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

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,161 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without an H1

    https://seisukeknife.com/pages/shipping-delivery, https://seisukeknife.com/collections/kitchen-knives-1, https://seisukeknife.com/collections/gyuto-chefs-knife, https://seisukeknife.com/collections/santoku-all-purpose-knives, https://seisukeknife.com/collections/petty-utility and https://seisukeknife.com/collections/nakiri-vegetable and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://seisukeknife.com/collections/bunka-knife has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

    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 1,242 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,242 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Shop now”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

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

  • 23 cookies set on arrival

    23

    Opening the homepage sets 23 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 53 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 53 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions
