Speed

4 to fix70
  • Improve image delivery

    7.0 s · 1.7 MB

    6 images could be 1.7 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 7.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.2 s · 314 KiB

    About 314 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

    Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Minify JavaScript

    260 ms · 44 KiB

    44 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    110 ms · 17 KiB

    About 17 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 110 ms faster on a phone.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and MailMunch and others), adding 201 KiB and 82 ms of main-thread time.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 100 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    6 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6 KiB).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 595 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix66
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 18.0 s

    18.0 s

    Your largest element takes 18.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.2 s

    18.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 13 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

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

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 108 ms

    108 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 108 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.022

    0.022

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.022, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

3 to fix35
  • Page weight: 4.4 MB in 156 requests

    4.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 156 requests on a phone: images 3.0 MB (23), other files 780 KiB (97) and scripts 485 KiB (22). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    d.jpg weighs 1.7 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    1.4 MB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example d.jpg at 2,731 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 1.4 MB.

  • 3 images below the first screen load straight away

    3 images further down the page (218 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.26 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.26 g of CO₂e: 150.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8090
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 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.

  • 3 images without alt text

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

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 form field without a label

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

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h3 → h5 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9280
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Meta description is long (187 characters)

    Your meta description is 187 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • Structured data has 3 problems

    Structured data found (Organization, Store and WebSite) but with 3 problems, for example “Organization: missing name”.

  • No favicon declared

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

  • 23 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 23 pages on stop-the-fire.com and 7 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 42 characters

    Your title is a healthy 42 characters: “High Quality Fire Blankets | Stop-the-Fire”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://stop-the-fire.com/.

  • 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://stop-the-fire.com/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, description and contact details; logo and sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (657 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://stop-the-fire.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 5 pages without a meta description

    https://stop-the-fire.com/collections/fire-blankets, https://stop-the-fire.com/collections/all, https://stop-the-fire.com/policies/privacy-policy, https://stop-the-fire.com/policies/refund-policy and https://stop-the-fire.com/policies/terms-of-service have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page with very little text

    https://stop-the-fire.com/pages/how-to-use-fire-blankets has 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.

  • 9 internal pages checked

    We fetched 9 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 9 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 9 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 8185
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 11 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Deprecated browser APIs

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

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix75
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

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

  • No direct contact details

    No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

  • No opening hours

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

  • No map or directions link

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

  • 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.

  • About 605 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 605 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW”.

  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Shop now”.

  • 4 short forms

    4 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

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

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 8 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 8 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 stop-the-fire.com, 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 1 app. It is code from another company running for your shoppers.
