Google's speed test didn't respond, so speed is not measured here; your full playbook measures it. Your full playbook turns these into prioritised fixes alongside reviews, competitors and channels.

Speed

  • Google's speed test didn't respond

    Google's speed test didn't respond for this site, so speed and Core Web Vitals are not measured here. Your full playbook measures them.

Core Web Vitals

Not measured in this review.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.2 MB

    3.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.2 MB on a phone, 393 KiB of it images (12%). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (40 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.92 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.92 g of CO₂e: 110.4 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

6 to fix91
  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • 18 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • 34 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 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 → h4, h2 → h4 and 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 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fix90
  • Meta description is short (68 characters)

    Your meta description is only 68 characters: “Your go-to supplier for quality uniforms and promotional merchandise”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 62 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 62 pages on squadwear.com.au and 5 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 48 characters

    Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “Squadwear - Uniform Supply – Squadwear Australia”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://squadwear.com.au/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

  • 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://squadwear.com.au/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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 (1,260 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

3 to fix65
  • 2 linked pages are broken

    Your homepage links to https://squadwear.com.au/collections/helly-hansen and https://squadwear.com.au/collections/js-tops, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://squadwear.com.au/collections/all and https://squadwear.com.au/pages/supply-partners have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 13 pages without an H1

    https://squadwear.com.au/collections/all, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/contact-us, https://squadwear.com.au/collections, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/about-us, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/customisation and https://squadwear.com.au/pages/uniform-management and 7 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 7 pages with very little text

    https://squadwear.com.au/pages/contact-us, https://squadwear.com.au/collections, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/about-us, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/customisation, https://squadwear.com.au/pages/uniform-management and https://squadwear.com.au/pages/supply-partners and 1 other have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://squadwear.com.au/collections/all took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 41 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Content and conversion

2 to fix89
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • About 434 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 434 words of visible text.

7 checks passed

  • 5 short forms

    5 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage.

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 37 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 37 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 squadwear.com.au, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 17 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
