shhhowercap.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
7.0 s · 795 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (795 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.1 s · 522 KiBAbout 522 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.1 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
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: 4.2 s
A phone's processor spends 4.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
1.1 MB5 images could be 1.1 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 (route.com, Clarity and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.1 MB and 837 ms of main-thread time.
Duplicated JavaScript
500 ms · 109 KiB109 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.
route.com adds 450 ms
450 msroute.com costs a phone 450 ms of main-thread work and 717 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.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 378 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 112 KiBAbout 112 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.
Legacy JavaScript
35 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 35 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
13 KiB13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Minify JavaScript
11 KiB11 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
1 image over 500 KB
mothersday.gif weighs 8.7 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
Page weight: 4.0 MB in 235 requests
4.0 MBYour homepage downloads 4.0 MB in 235 requests on a phone: images 1.7 MB (22), scripts 1.3 MB (70) and other files 819 KiB (128). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (8.7 MB) is 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 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.14 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.14 g of CO₂e: 136.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
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
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text (3 elements)
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
3 images without alt text
3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings should not be empty (2 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail 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.

47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
14 H1 headlines
There are 14 <h1> headlines (“DO YOU WASH YOUR HAIR EVERY DAY?”, “DO YOU WASH YOUR HAIR EVERY DAY?” and “DOES YOUR LITTLE NEED ONE, TOO?”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (315 characters)
Your meta description is 315 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
52 internal links, 11 external
The homepage links to 52 pages on shhhowercap.com and 11 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 54 characters
Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “The Original SHHHOWERCAP® The Shower Cap Reinvented.TM”.

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 (774 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to /products/the-stunner, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
4 pages share a meta description
/blogs/press, /collections/all-active-single-cap-skus, /collections/all and /products/digital-giftcard use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
4 pages without an H1
/pages/about-us, /pages/90-days, /collections/all and /pages/tellallyourfriends have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

2 links through redirect chains
2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://shhhowercap.com/account.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy

Valid certificate (62 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for shhhowercap.com and is valid for another 62 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://shhhowercap.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

Domain and trust
No CAA record
shhhowercap.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
shhhowercap.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed

A 12-field form
Your longest form asks for 12 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
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.

The homepage carries about 480 words of visible text.
2 checks passed
8 calls to action

Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

Email authentication score: 70/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:mailgun.org ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
