Speed

9 to fix64
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.3 s · 452 KiB

    About 452 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, reamaze.com and shop.app and others), adding 48.6 MB and 170 ms of main-thread time.

  • tiktokcdn-us.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    tiktokcdn-us.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 46.1 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.6 MB

    8 images could be 1.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    600 ms · 215 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (215 KiB).

  • 2,524 HTML elements

    The page has 2,524 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Shopify adds 117 ms

    117 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 117 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • tiktokcdn-eu.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    tiktokcdn-eu.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 61 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    11 KiB

    About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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: 1.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 696 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

  • Speed Index: 7.6 s

  • Total Blocking Time: 6 ms

    6 ms

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 50.1 MB in 338 requests

    50.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 50.1 MB in 338 requests on a phone: media 45.5 MB (6), images 2.1 MB (23) and other files 1.1 MB (147). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 14.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    14.20 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 14.20 g of CO₂e: 1704.1 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

4 to fixGoogle 8894
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Form elements must have labels (1 element)

    Form elements must have labels: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 9 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10081
  • Title is short (15 characters)

    Your title is only 15 characters: “Shiny Car Stuff”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Meta description is short (50 characters)

    Your meta description is only 50 characters: “Easy to use, wipe on clear coat for damaged paint.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 35 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 35 pages on shinycarstuff.com and 5 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization, ProductGroup 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://shinycarstuff.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 (828 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

6 to fix35
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to /pages/reviews, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 1 page without a title

    /customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a title

    / and /products/shiny-car-stuff all use the title “Shiny Car Stuff”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 6 pages without a meta description

    /collections/all-products, /customer_authentication/redirect, /policies/shipping-policy, /policies/terms-of-service, /policies/privacy-policy and /policies/refund-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 5 pages without an H1

    /pages/faq, /pages/videos, /pages/contact, /pages/find-a-distributor-near-you and /customer_authentication/redirect have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 14 internal pages checked

    We fetched 14 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

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

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    14 of 15 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 1,096 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,096 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Shop” and “Contact”.

  • 8 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 testimonial or review blocks and a star rating.

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, Meta Pixel and TikTok 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.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 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.

  • 25 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 25 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 shinycarstuff.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 6 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

Apps your storefront loads

Judge Me Reviews · Forms · Shopify Cli · Social Media Network · Tikify Tiktok Button · reamaze.com
