Speed

1 to fix98
  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 350 ms.

  • Font display

    150 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 108 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    31 KiB

    About 31 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    14 KiB

    About 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Shopify), adding 8 KiB and 4 ms of main-thread time.

3 checks passed
  • Mobile performance score: 98

    98/100

  • Main-thread work: 0.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 343 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix100
  • Speed Index: 4.0 s

    4.0 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • 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.

5 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 65 ms

    65 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 65 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Time to Interactive: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The page is fully interactive after 2.1 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.0 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Your largest element renders in 1.0 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Conceived initially as a creative hub to connect highly ski…”.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.24 g of CO₂e: 28.7 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: 865 KiB in 78 requests

    865 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 865 KiB in 78 requests on a phone: other files 658 KiB (63), scripts 146 KiB (10) and HTML 20 KiB (1). 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

1 to fixGoogle 9698
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 1 image in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 39 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 40 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 1 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9279
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (11 characters)

    Your title is only 11 characters: “SSAM STUDIO”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Only 1 internal link

    The homepage links to only 1 page on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • No favicon declared

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

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “<img src="//ssam.studio/cdn/shop/files/ssam-logo-1_70x.png?v=1614724567" srcset="//ssam.studio/cdn/shop/files/ssam-logo…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://ssam.studio/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://ssam.studio/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

3 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.

  • llms.txt published

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

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10092

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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.

  • Only about 83 words

    The homepage has only about 83 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “[email protected]”.

  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “[email protected]”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 1 email link.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 cookies set on arrival

    5

    Opening the homepage sets 5 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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 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

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at ssam.studio, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
