Speed

4 to fix64
  • Mobile performance score: 64

    64/100

    Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    800 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    600 ms · 123 KiB

    About 123 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 59 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (59 KiB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (cloudfront.net, Ordergroove and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 508 KiB and 158 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    139 KiB

    5 images could be 139 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    19 KiB

    About 19 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 291 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix53
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Your largest element takes 5.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.3

    0.3

    The layout shifts by 0.3 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 34 images without width and height

    34 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Time to Interactive: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 5.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix86
  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    300MG_3.png 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).

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    31 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example story_0a7f81ef-8ff5-432f-ba21-2523b8e2165d.jpg at 1,142 px wide, shown at 340 px. Resized copies would save about 31 KiB.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (143 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 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.54 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.54 g of CO₂e: 64.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.9 MB in 161 requests

    1.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 161 requests on a phone: other files 661 KiB (71), scripts 521 KiB (47) and images 514 KiB (24). That is a lean page.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 8989
  • 9 text elements with low contrast

    9 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Links must have discernible text (2 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    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.

  • 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.

  • 6 form fields without a label

    6 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

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

1 checks passed
  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 9 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8574
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (10 characters)

    Your title is only 10 characters: “Simple Wag”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Best Hemp Oil at the Lowest Price.It’s that Simpl…” and “Everyone wants the Best for Less. We make it Simp…”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 32 internal links, 1 external

    The homepage links to 32 pages on simplewag.com and 1 external page.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://simplewag.com/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://simplewag.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • No llms.txt

    There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

2 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 (1,080 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 10 internal pages checked

    We fetched 10 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    1 page of 10 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9293
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 6 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 5 low-resolution images

    5 images are served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • Short HSTS lifetime

    HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • Deprecated X-XSS-Protection

    X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

7 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (simplewag.com).

  • Valid certificate (72 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for simplewag.com and is valid for another 72 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • Content-Security-Policy set

    A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://simplewag.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 14 links work

    All 14 links checked from your homepage (13 internal, 1 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    simplewag.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    simplewag.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 10 years old

    10 years

    simplewag.com was registered in Oct 2016 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Oct 2027

    simplewag.com is registered until Oct 2027.

Content and conversion

2 to fix79
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • 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.

  • About 1,073 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,073 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “SHOP NOW” and “Subscribe”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 16 testimonial or review blocks, 1 customer or partner logo, a star rating and 2 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Email authentication

1 to fix45
  • No DMARC policy

    simplewag.com has no DMARC record, so nothing tells receivers what to do with mail that fails SPF or DKIM. Gmail and Yahoo require DMARC from bulk senders.

  • Email authentication score: 45/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

2 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “google”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo (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.

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    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.

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.

None of the apps your storefront loads is on the list of apps with a known security problem.
