Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 522 KiB61 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (522 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 530 KiBAbout 530 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 23
23/100Your mobile performance score is 23 (desktop: 69). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 4.4 s
A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Intercom and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
960 ms · 154 KiBAbout 154 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 960 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 510 ms
510 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 510 ms of main-thread work and 574 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
550 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 550 ms.
Improve image delivery
350 ms · 138 KiB8 images could be 138 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 434 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Facebook adds 374 ms
374 msFacebook costs a phone 374 ms of main-thread work and 275 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.
Intercom adds 327 ms
327 msIntercom costs a phone 327 ms of main-thread work and 310 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.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 16 KiB16 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
24 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 69 but mobile only 23. 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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.284
0.284The layout shifts by 0.284 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Tap response (INP) got 25% slower for real visitors
+25%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 102 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 196 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 196 requests on a phone: scripts 1.6 MB (50), fonts 301 KiB (16) and images 236 KiB (39). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (29 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.67 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.67 g of CO₂e: 80.9 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
5 text elements with low contrast
5 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
7 links without text
7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 24 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 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: 48 passed and 5 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

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

Security and trust
No clickjacking protection
