Speed
Mobile performance score: 64
64/100Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
600 ms · 123 KiBAbout 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 KiB3 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 KiB5 images could be 139 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
19 KiBAbout 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.

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 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.3 s
5.3 sYour 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
0.3The 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 sThe 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 sVisually, 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 sThe first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
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 KiB1 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 gBy 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 MBYour 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 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
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
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
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
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
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)

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

http:// redirects to https

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

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Risk reducer mentioned

Email authentication
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)
