Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB on a phone, 451 KiB of it images (12%). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
New_Website_Homepage_Banner_Mobil_1.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).
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.01 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.01 g of CO₂e: 120.9 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
23 text elements with low contrast
23 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h1 → h3 and h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 32 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 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: 49 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (68 characters)
Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Smack Pet Food | Raw Dehydrated Dog & Cat Food – Smack Pet Food Inc.”.
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Raw Dehydrated Superfood with Scoop & Serve Conve…” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
70 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 70 pages on smackpetfood.com and 10 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 137 characters
Your meta description is 137 characters: “Raw nutrition with scoop-and-serve convenience. Smack makes raw dehydrated dog and cat food from whole meats, organs an…”.

Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

Text is in the HTML

llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.smackpetfood.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
https://www.smackpetfood.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search

1 page without a meta description
https://www.smackpetfood.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://www.smackpetfood.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
