One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (alia-prod.com, Google Tag Manager and Shopify and others), adding 1.9 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
350 ms · 822 KiB18 images could be 822 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 65
65/100Your mobile performance score is 65. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
930 KiBAbout 930 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 656 KiB33 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (656 KiB).
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
alia-prod.com adds 302 ms
302 msalia-prod.com costs a phone 302 ms of main-thread work and 439 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 272 ms
272 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 272 ms of main-thread work and 361 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.
2,272 HTML elements
The page has 2,272 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 185 ms
185 msShopify costs a phone 185 ms of main-thread work and 359 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.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 170 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
77 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 77 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
16 KiBAbout 16 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.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
