Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 641 KiBAbout 641 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 49
49/100Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.3 s
A phone's processor spends 6.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and TikTok and others), adding 1.7 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
911 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (911 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
800 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 615 ms
615 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 615 ms of main-thread work and 372 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.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 428 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Facebook adds 297 ms
297 msFacebook costs a phone 297 ms of main-thread work and 283 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.
Attentive adds 78 ms
78 msAttentive costs a phone 78 ms of main-thread work and 695 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.
Improve image delivery
231 KiB9 images could be 231 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
21 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 21 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.9 MB in 133 requests
5.9 MBYour homepage downloads 5.9 MB in 133 requests on a phone: media 2.6 MB (1), scripts 1.8 MB (52) and images 1,021 KiB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit
1.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.68 g of CO₂e: 202.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
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
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.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 31 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
37 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 38 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 37 passed and 1 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

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.shakawear.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Parts of the site are closed to 2 AI crawlers
Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.
Opted out of AI training for 1 crawler
robots.txt blocks CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.
3 checks passed
Organization data: 6 of 6 facts
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 (253 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.shakawear.com/llms.txt (3 KiB, 29 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages

Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
Only about 168 words
The homepage has only about 168 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
4 checks passed
