starshowershop.com website review

12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

A phone's processor spends 7.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.

About 306 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (291 KiB).

16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 345 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Klaviyo costs a phone 298 ms of main-thread work and 330 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.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 288 ms of main-thread work and 172 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.

Facebook costs a phone 252 ms of main-thread work and 217 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.

Shopify costs a phone 119 ms of main-thread work and 306 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.

5 images could be 230 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.

About 23 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 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

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 9.5 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 17.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 968 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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.

Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 290 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (106), images 912 KiB (29) and other files 839 KiB (122). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.94 g of CO₂e: 113.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

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

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.

The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

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

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

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

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

The homepage links to 106 pages on starshowershop.com and 6 external pages.

Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

Your homepage links to https://starshowershop.com/collections/shop-all, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

https://starshowershop.com/products/star-shower-slideshow-christmas, https://starshowershop.com/collections/accessories, https://starshowershop.com/collections/all, https://starshowershop.com/products/spectacular-with-remote, https://starshowershop.com/products/star-shower-slide-show-christmas-with-remote-copy and https://starshowershop.com/products/sscheerpack and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://starshowershop.com/products/star-shower-slide-show-halloween-copy and https://starshowershop.com/products/star-shower-slide-show-halloween use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 32 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

8 of 16 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

6 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()”.

Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

The homepage carries about 372 words of visible text.

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

Opening the homepage sets 21 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 46 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
