Speed

4 to fix75
  • Mobile performance score: 75

    75/100

    Your mobile performance score is 75. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    600 ms

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

  • 2,812 HTML elements

    The page has 2,812 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Shopify adds 74 ms

    74 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 74 ms of main-thread work and 560 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 JavaScript

    150 ms · 63 KiB

    About 63 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, shop.app and myshopify.com), adding 578 KiB and 74 ms of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    98 KiB

    2 images could be 98 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    13 KiB

    About 13 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    6 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6 KiB).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 382 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 10 ms

    10 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 10 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix69
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    Your largest element takes 6.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Smart Cosmetics”.

  • Time to Interactive: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.8 s

    3.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • 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

100
  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.55 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.55 g of CO₂e: 65.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.9 MB in 202 requests

    1.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.9 MB in 202 requests on a phone: other files 768 KiB (91), scripts 489 KiB (76) and images 401 KiB (10). That is a lean page.

  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

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

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 9290
  • 25 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (3 elements)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 1 image without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 6 links without text

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

  • 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), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10089
  • Meta description is long (229 characters)

    Your meta description is 229 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 96 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 96 pages on smartcosmetics.ch and 2 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 33 characters

    Your title is a healthy 33 characters: “Smart cosmetics – Smart Cosmetics”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://smartcosmetics.ch/en.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://smartcosmetics.ch/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

4 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,038 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://smartcosmetics.ch/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 10 pages without a meta description

    https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/pages/acces-pro, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/eleven-australia, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/all, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/pages/offres-exclusives, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/pages/contact and https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/colour-pop and 4 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 9 pages without an H1

    https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/eleven-australia, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/all, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/pages/offres-exclusives, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/pages/contact, https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/colour-pop and https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/osmo and 3 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages slow to respond

    https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/collections/alfaparf and https://smartcosmetics.ch/en/products/golden-glow-cream took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 42 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687

1 checks passed

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • 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 social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 617 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 617 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Get a business account” and “Order note”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
