One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
6.2 s · 643 KiBAbout 643 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.2 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 50
50/100Your mobile performance score is 50 (desktop: 89). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.4 MB and 776 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms31 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Google CDN adds 577 ms
577 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 577 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.
Main-thread work: 2.2 s
A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 155 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
16 KiB1 image could be 16 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 89 but mobile only 50. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

142 msYour server sent the HTML in 142 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.5 s
13.5 sYour largest element takes 13.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Your Source for Trusted Proteins.”. Most of its time is element render delay (9.0 s).
Speed Index: 11.7 s
11.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 11.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 13.6 s
13.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s
3.0 sThe first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 405 ms
405 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 405 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
4 images without width and height
4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 87 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 87 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (27), images 372 KiB (19) and other files 348 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
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: 80.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

8 links without text
8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
39 internal links, 13 external
The homepage links to 39 pages on sierrameat.com and 13 external pages.

AI search readiness

No llms.txt

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 (581 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

Thin social proof

No direct contact details
