Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 353 KiBAbout 353 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 48
48/100Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 5.7 s
A phone's processor spends 5.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Google CDN and Shopify and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
650 ms · 156 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (156 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 77 KiBAbout 77 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Klaviyo adds 388 ms
388 msKlaviyo costs a phone 388 ms of main-thread work and 527 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.
Improve image delivery
420 KiB8 images could be 420 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google CDN adds 297 ms
297 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 297 ms of main-thread work and 298 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.
Shopify adds 268 ms
268 msShopify costs a phone 268 ms of main-thread work and 480 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.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 292 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
1,665 HTML elements
The page has 1,665 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
100 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.002
0.002The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.002, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.8 MB in 340 requests
3.8 MBYour homepage downloads 3.8 MB in 340 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (157), images 1.2 MB (23) and other files 870 KiB (138). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
free-people-mobile_534f6be5-6fb1-4530-a8bc-dcb81e4499d3.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
3 images in older formats
3 images (308 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 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.08 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.08 g of CO₂e: 129.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Hidden but focusable
8 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
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.
12 links without text
12 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 41 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (15 characters)
Your title is only 15 characters: “Take It Outside”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is long (185 characters)
Your meta description is 185 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization, Store and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: url is not an absolute URL ("takeitoutside.ca")”.
228 internal links, 18 external
The homepage links to 228 pages on shoptakeitoutside.com and 18 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline

Canonical URL set

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://takeitoutside.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles) 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.
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 (703 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://takeitoutside.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
12 pages without a meta description
https://takeitoutside.ca/policies/shipping-policy, https://takeitoutside.ca/collections/take-it-outside-essentials, https://takeitoutside.ca/collections/womens-clothing, https://takeitoutside.ca/collections/womens-jackets-outerwear, https://takeitoutside.ca/collections/womens-casual-outerwear and https://takeitoutside.ca/collections/womens-insulated-outerwear and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Content and conversion
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 phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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 opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
About 326 words of copy

5 checks passed

7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (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.

Security, domain, email and software versions
