Speed

13 to fix35
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.8 s · 1.2 MB

    45 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.2 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.2 s · 1.1 MB

    About 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 10.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 10.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 10,370 HTML elements

    The page has 10,370 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 35

    35/100

    Your mobile performance score is 35 (desktop: 64). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and gotolstoy.com and others), adding 3.4 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 1.4 MB

    81 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 788 ms

    788 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 788 ms of main-thread work and 934 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    600 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 600 ms.

  • Shopify adds 366 ms

    366 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 366 ms of main-thread work and 1.0 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 250 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • gotolstoy.com adds 157 ms

    157 ms

    gotolstoy.com costs a phone 157 ms of main-thread work and 382 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.

  • Attentive adds 86 ms

    86 ms

    Attentive costs a phone 86 ms of main-thread work and 708 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 30 KiB

    About 30 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.

  • Font display

    150 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    62 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 62 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 64 but mobile only 35. 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.

  • Forced reflow

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

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 25 ms

    25 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 25 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    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.

  • Time to Interactive: 48.5 s

    48.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 48.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.1 s

    8.1 s

    Your largest element takes 8.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 13.7 s

    13.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 5.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 979 ms

    979 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 979 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user LCP: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Real visitors wait 2.6 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user FCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 12% slower for real visitors

    +12%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 105 ms to 121 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.5 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

4 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 193 ms

    193 ms

    Real visitors wait 193 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user TTFB: 780 ms

    780 ms

    Real visitors wait 780 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 13.1 MB in 640 requests

    13.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 13.1 MB in 640 requests on a phone: images 8.7 MB (345), scripts 2.8 MB (131) and other files 876 KiB (130). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    SKINNY-CLAIMS_HP-BANNER_MOB.jpg 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).

  • About 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.72 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.72 g of CO₂e: 446.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

1 to fixGoogle 10097
  • 3 links without text

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h6 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 398 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 17 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 17 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 17 passed and 0 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9294
  • No structured data

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

  • 4 links with vague text

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

  • 385 internal links, 91 external

    The homepage links to 385 pages on slip.com and 91 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 129 characters

    Your meta description is 129 characters: “The beauty secret of celebrity hairstylists, dermatologists, and beauty experts and winner of over 200 prestigious beau…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Slip”.

  • Title: 54 characters

    Your title is a healthy 54 characters: “Slip® - Anti Aging. Anti Sleep Crease. Anti Bed Head.™”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.slip.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://www.slip.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.

3 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 (1,444 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 13 pages without a meta description

    /pages/wishlist, /collections/holiday-2026, /collections/new-arrivals, /collections/sleep-leisure-club, /collections/cornflower and /collections/slip-x-skims and 7 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 pages without an H1

    /pages/shipping-policy, /pages/afterpay, /pages/wishlist, /collections/holiday-2026, /collections/new-arrivals and /collections/sleep-leisure-club and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 118 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 7376
  • 2 broken images

    2 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://slipsilkpillowcase.myshopify.com/cdn/shop/files/pandectes-reopen-logo.png.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    139 of 148 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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.

  • No risk reducer

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

  • About 1,115 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,115 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP” and “SHOP PILLOWCASES”.

  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Shop New Arrivals”, “Shop Exclusives” and “Shop”.

  • 34 short forms

    34 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 12 testimonial or review blocks and 51 trust badges.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and TikTok Pixel.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 10 trackers load before any consent

    10

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 5 mores (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.

  • 33 cookies set on arrival

    33

    Opening the homepage sets 33 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.

  • 61 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 61 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at slip.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
