siamblades.com website review

The page has 3,429 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

12 images could be 606 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 950 ms faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 85. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 527 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Shopify costs a phone 107 ms of main-thread work and 321 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.

4 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and shop.app and others), adding 439 KiB and 151 ms of main-thread time.

About 25 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.

7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (93 KiB).

1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 82 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

About 70 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

39 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

Polyfills for old browsers add 25 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Your largest element takes 4.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 5.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 88 ms to 93 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.5 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 323 requests on a phone: images 1.6 MB (39), other files 855 KiB (130) and scripts 640 KiB (122). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

3 images (350 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.

1 image further down the page (23 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.93 g of CO₂e: 111.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Your title is 70 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Siam Blades | Thai Handmade Bushcraft Knives, Axes & Tools in Thailand”.

There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Experience the True Edge of Thailand” and “Limited Edition Thai Blades”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

Your meta description is 318 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

The homepage links to 298 pages on siamblades.com and 2 external pages.

Your homepage links to https://siamblades.com/collections/traditional-thai-daab-swords and https://siamblades.com/collections/siam-dhabs, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

https://siamblades.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

https://siamblades.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

https://siamblades.com/collections/ready-to-ship-2024, https://siamblades.com/policies/terms-of-service, https://siamblades.com/customer_authentication/redirect, https://siamblades.com/collections/siam-blades1 and https://siamblades.com/collections/siam-crafts have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://siamblades.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 71 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

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 ()”.

Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,106 words of visible text.

The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 18 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
