Render-blocking requests
1.8 s19 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.8 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 212 KiBAbout 212 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
950 ms · 284 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (284 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 34 KiBAbout 34 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Facebook, amaicdn.com and Shopify and others), adding 621 KiB and 280 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 58 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 58 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 89 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
43 KiB3 images could be 43 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

Main-thread work: 1.3 s
A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 637 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 11.5 s
11.5 sYour largest element takes 11.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 11.7 s
11.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 11.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.0 s
7.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.6 s
3.6 sThe first text or image appears after 3.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
23 images without width and height
23 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
2 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 50 ms
50 msScripts block the page for only 50 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 180 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 180 requests on a phone: scripts 810 KiB (70), images 778 KiB (30) and other files 622 KiB (61). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (64 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 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.67 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.67 g of CO₂e: 80.6 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
23 text elements with low contrast
23 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
45 images without alt text
45 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (42 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 42 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
22 links without text
22 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
36 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 36 passed and 8 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
83 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 83 pages on shopmalinda.com and 12 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 35 characters
Your title is a healthy 35 characters: “Malinda Reese US | Malinda Reese US”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://shopmalinda.com/.
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://shopmalinda.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
3 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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (265 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://shopmalinda.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://shopmalinda.com/collections/clothing, https://shopmalinda.com/collections/accessories and https://shopmalinda.com/collections/media have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
13 pages with very little text
https://shopmalinda.com/collections/media, https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-floral-black-crewneck-mre, https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-flowers-natural-tee-mre, https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-mountain-white-tee-mre, https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-mountain-tote-bag-mre and https://shopmalinda.com/products/life-is-golden-tee-mre and 7 others have 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.
3 pages slow to respond
https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-mountain-white-tee-mre, https://shopmalinda.com/products/malinda-mountain-tote-bag-mre and https://shopmalinda.com/products/life-is-golden-tee-mre took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

Content and conversion
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 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 243 words
The homepage has only about 243 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
1 call to action

2 short forms

15 cookies set on arrival
15Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies, 3 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
