Speed

3 to fix81
  • Mobile performance score: 81

    81/100

    Your mobile performance score is 81. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    650 ms

    13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.

  • Shopify adds 4 ms

    4 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 4 ms of main-thread work and 385 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.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Trust Pilot and Shopify and others), adding 592 KiB and 99 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    111 KiB

    8 images could be 111 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    71 KiB

    About 71 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    50 ms · 5 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 54 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 113 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix74
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.209

    0.209

    The layout shifts by 0.209 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    Your largest element takes 3.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    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.

3 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Speed Index: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 3 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.24 g of CO₂e: 28.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 868 KiB in 84 requests

    868 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 868 KiB in 84 requests on a phone: scripts 380 KiB (42), images 301 KiB (13) and fonts 88 KiB (4). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8993
  • Images must have alternative text (1 element)

    Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 4 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 24 form fields without a label

    24 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 4 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 9293
  • Title is short (23 characters)

    Your title is only 23 characters: “SMP | Self-Made Program”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 10 internal links, 28 external

    The homepage links to 10 pages on selfmadeprogram.com and 28 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 156 characters

    Your meta description is 156 characters: “La réussite façon Self-Made n'a jamais été aussi accessible. Forme toi et applique tous nos conseils sur l'entreprenari…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “On crée ta boutiquee-commerce rentable avec toi, et on t'accompagne dans son développement 🚀”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.selfmadeprogram.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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://www.selfmadeprogram.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

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 (1,012 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.selfmadeprogram.com/collections/all has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 6 internal pages checked

    We fetched 6 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    5 pages of 6 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 5 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9296
  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 934 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 934 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 1 short form

    A short form (0 fields at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

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

  • 8 cookies set on arrival

    8

    Opening the homepage sets 8 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.

  • 8 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 8 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 selfmadeprogram.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 2 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
