Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.8 s · 793 KiBAbout 793 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.8 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, rebuyengine.com and Judge.me and others), adding 1.6 MB and 602 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
400 ms · 42 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (42 KiB).
Main-thread work: 2.1 s
A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
rebuyengine.com adds 120 ms
120 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 120 ms of main-thread work and 645 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 22 ms
22 msShopify costs a phone 22 ms of main-thread work and 392 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
150 ms · 96 KiB6 images could be 96 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 64 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 64 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 198 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 38 KiBAbout 38 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
100 ms · 10 KiB10 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.

Total Blocking Time: 219 ms
219 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 219 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
5 images without width and height
5 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.084
0.084The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.084, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.2 MB in 240 requests
3.2 MBYour homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 240 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (90), other files 823 KiB (95) and images 421 KiB (32). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.90 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.90 g of CO₂e: 107.7 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
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Images must have alternative text (1 element)
Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
4 text elements with low contrast
4 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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

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.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (3 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 10 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “Show Cushions”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “” and “Proudly Canadian”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (296 characters)
Your meta description is 296 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
89 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 89 pages on showcushions.com and 3 external pages.
5 checks passed

AI search readiness
4 checks passed

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 (322 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://showcushions.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://showcushions.com/collections/bhujodi, https://showcushions.com/collections/velvet and https://showcushions.com/collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
https://showcushions.com/collections/macrame-1 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.
