Speed

12 to fix35
  • Main-thread work: 13.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 13.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 35

    35/100

    Your mobile performance score is 35. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 6,269 HTML elements

    The page has 6,269 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    10.0 MB

    38 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (10.0 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    2.7 MB

    58 images could be 2.7 MB 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 (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and consentmanager.net and others), adding 3.1 MB and 2.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 1.3 MB

    About 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 933 ms

    933 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 933 ms of main-thread work and 1,008 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 514 ms

    514 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 514 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 488 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • consentmanager.net adds 309 ms

    309 ms

    consentmanager.net costs a phone 309 ms of main-thread work and 140 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 49 KiB

    About 49 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    19 KiB

    19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    18 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 18 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 20 ms

    20 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 20 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.

  • Time to Interactive: 43.8 s

    43.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 43.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 9.2 s

    9.2 s

    Your largest element takes 9.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “SHEHDS Black Friday sale on moving head and LED stage lights”.

  • Speed Index: 12.4 s

    12.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 12.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.6 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Real visitors wait 3.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 429 ms

    429 ms

    Real visitors wait 429 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.11

    0.11

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.11 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 19% slower for real visitors

    +19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 389 ms to 508 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

2 checks passed
  • Largest content (LCP) got 13% faster for real visitors

    -13%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.6 s to 2.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.093

    0.093

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.093, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix42
  • Page weight: 18.9 MB in 546 requests

    18.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 18.9 MB in 546 requests on a phone: images 13.8 MB (137), scripts 3.0 MB (174) and other files 995 KiB (155). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Banner_20261022-780x900.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    386 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 7_-PNG_800x800_d3a09501-ff54-43ba-9e57-bd0a09ba3939.webp at 390 px wide, shown at 64 px. Resized copies would save about 386 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (510 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 5.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    5.35 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.35 g of CO₂e: 641.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

13 to fixGoogle 7585
  • 4 buttons without a name

    4 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 33 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • Hidden but focusable

    1 element hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 15 images without alt text

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

  • Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails 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.

  • 23 links without text

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

  • Frames without titles

    3 frames have no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what they contain.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (10 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

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

1 checks passed
  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 64 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 12 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 7792
  • Structured data has 2 problems

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 2 problems, for example “ld+json block 4 is not valid JSON (Expected double-quoted property name in JSON at position 400)”.

  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 472 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 472 pages on shehds.com and 7 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 136 characters

    Your meta description is 136 characters: “Pro-grade stage lights for DJs, weddings & clubs — trusted by 100,000+ customers, 2-year warranty, US & EU warehouses f…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Stage Lights for DJs, Events & Venues — SHEHDS”.

  • Title: 48 characters

    Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “Pro-Grade Stage Lights & Stage Lighting – SHEHDS”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://shehds.com/.

  • 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://shehds.com/sitemap.xml.

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 (5,355 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://shehds.com/llms.txt (18 KiB, 56 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://shehds.com/collections/all and https://shehds.com/policies/shipping-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 9 pages without an H1

    https://shehds.com/collections/all, https://shehds.com/collections/new-arrivals, https://shehds.com/policies/shipping-policy, https://shehds.com/pages/sale, https://shehds.com/collections/top-products and https://shehds.com/pages/shehds-outdoor-solutions and 3 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 196 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    9 pages of 15 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.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 9 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 5074
  • 10 broken images

    10 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://s3.amazonaws.com/me.judge.review-images/shehds/1783871777__chaswithnewtoy__original.jpg.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

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

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    89 of 97 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix72
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • 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 opening hours

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

  • No map or directions link

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

  • About 2,776 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 2,776 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 34 calls to action

    The homepage has 34 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Shop Now” and “Contact Us”.

  • 6 short forms

    6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 customer or partner logos, a star rating, 2 trust badges and “100,000+ Customers”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Criteo, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (consentmanager) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 29 cookies set on arrival

    29

    Opening the homepage sets 29 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 56 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 56 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: consentmanager

    A consent management tool (consentmanager) loads with the page.

Security, domain, email and software versions
