soapistons.com website review

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.7 s.

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

7 images could be 507 KiB 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.

9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (102 KiB).

Shopify costs a phone 34 ms of main-thread work and 368 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 28 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.

Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (Hubspot, Shopify and shop.app and others), adding 571 KiB and 104 ms of main-thread time.

2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 68 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

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.

Your largest element takes 9.6 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 10.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 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 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 78 ms to 81 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.0 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 11.3 MB in 300 requests on a phone: media 8.7 MB (2), other files 1.2 MB (203) and images 749 KiB (23). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

sema-2023-hero.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).

5 images further down the page (510 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Craig_L.png at 1,143 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 74 KiB.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.20 g of CO₂e: 384.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

6 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

4 dropdowns have no label.

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

4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

Your title is 79 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Speed of Air Hyperformance Pistons – Precision Diesel Performance | SOA Pistons”.

Your meta description is 259 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

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 analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

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