Speed

1 to fix100
  • Render-blocking requests

    800 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 94 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    54 KiB

    About 54 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Shopify), adding 125 KiB and 21 ms of main-thread time.

  • Minify CSS

    13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2 KiB).

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 100

    100/100

    Your mobile performance score is 100. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 1.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 271 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

100
  • 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.

6 checks passed
  • Time to Interactive: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    The page is fully interactive after 3.7 s.

  • Speed Index: 2.7 s

    2.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.7 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.0 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.0 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Build exceptional commerce experiences”.

  • Total Blocking Time: 22 ms

    22 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 22 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.33 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.33 g of CO₂e: 40.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.2 MB in 167 requests

    1.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 167 requests on a phone: other files 666 KiB (63), scripts 304 KiB (94) and fonts 134 KiB (5). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 10099
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 43 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 9268
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is short (8 characters)

    Your title is only 8 characters: “shopdevs”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No favicon declared

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

  • 11 internal links, 1 external

    The homepage links to 11 pages on shopdevs.com and 1 external page.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • 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://shopdevs.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://shopdevs.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

1 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.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://shopdevs.com/pages/about has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://shopdevs.com/pages/about has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://shopdevs.com/pages/about has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 1 internal page checked

    We fetched 1 page linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 1 page we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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 1 page that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 10087
  • 2 small tap targets

    2 of 8 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix64
  • 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 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.

  • Only about 82 words

    The homepage has only about 82 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.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Start Your Project”.

  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Start Your Project” and “Sign up”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 3 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 shopdevs.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
