stepongerms.com website review

About 551 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.8 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

1 image could be 840 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Shopify and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.1 MB and 476 ms of main-thread time.

YouTube costs a phone 444 ms of main-thread work and 979 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 128 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 290 ms faster on a phone.

4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 123 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2 KiB).

Your largest element takes 9.9 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 12.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 3.8 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.

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 3.0 MB in 155 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (35), images 909 KiB (5) and other files 784 KiB (106). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 101.5 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 names: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

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

1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Step On Germs Foot Operated Stainless Steel Hand Sanitizer Dispensers”.

Your meta description is 170 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

Structured data found (LocalBusiness, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “LocalBusiness: image is not an absolute URL ("//stepongerms.com/cdn/shop/t/2/assets/pluginseo_struc…”.

The homepage links to 33 pages on stepongerms.com and 9 external pages.

We fetched 13 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

18 of 40 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

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

A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

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.

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

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 395 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager 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.

Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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 15 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
