simplify-living.co website review

74 images could be 10.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.

18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.3 s.

The page has 3,103 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (262 KiB).

About 227 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.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (alia-prod.com, varify.io and conversion.io and others), adding 1.3 MB and 268 ms of main-thread time.

31 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Google Fonts costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 437 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.

About 42 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.

2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 101 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Polyfills for old browsers add 10 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.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Your largest element takes 11.6 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 11.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 8.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 136 ms to 144 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 14.6 MB in 258 requests on a phone: images 12.8 MB (149), scripts 1.0 MB (54) and fonts 475 KiB (14). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

GIF_2_474b9685-8591-43f1-a681-5ea2218f47e0.gif weighs 2.4 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

2 images (2.4 MB) 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.13 g of CO₂e: 495.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

6 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

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

Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 18 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

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

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

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

Your title is only 15 characters: “Simplify Living”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://www.simplifyliving.com.au)”.

2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

The homepage links to 206 pages on simplify-living.co and 5 external pages.

https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/towels, https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/pillows and https://www.simplifyliving.us/pages/about-us have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/packing-cubes-1, whose canonical is https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/packing-cubes. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/best-sellers-1, https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/anti-theft-bags, https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/travel-bags, https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/crossbody-bags, https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/just-dropped and https://www.simplifyliving.us/collections/value-bundles and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 33 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

22 of 52 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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

Opening the homepage sets 6 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.
