stryve.com website review

16 images could be 19.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 59.2 s faster on a phone.

6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.5 s.

About 269 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

Klaviyo costs a phone 176 ms of main-thread work and 347 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.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Google Tag Manager and rechargecdn.com and others), adding 718 KiB and 425 ms of main-thread time.

8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 109 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

10 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (76 KiB).

Polyfills for old browsers add 55 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.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Real visitors wait 4.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

Your largest element takes 74.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Background image for hero”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 75.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors see the first content after 2.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 178 ms to 179 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 3.0 s to 3.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 20.8 MB in 114 requests on a phone: images 19.7 MB (25), scripts 871 KiB (55) and fonts 214 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

4 images weigh 14.0 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example image at 6,000 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 14.5 MB.

5 images (13.8 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

image is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.90 g of CO₂e: 707.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

Your title is only 21 characters: “Stryve Protein Snacks”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

There are 3 <h1> headlines (“OUR FOOD”, “Eat steak, don’t be a jerky!” and “Snacking as it should be”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

No XML sitemap at https://stryve.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

The homepage links to 34 pages on stryve.com and 9 external pages.

There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

There is no https://stryve.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

Your homepage links to https://stryve.com/shop/original-sliced-beef-biltong, https://stryve.com/shop/smoked-beef-biltong, https://stryve.com/shop/sliced-biltong-peppered, https://stryve.com/shop/sliced-biltong-original-folds-of-honor-edition and https://stryve.com/shop/hatch-green-chile-steak-bites, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

/, https://stryve.com/shop, https://stryve.com/stores, https://stryve.com/subscribe, https://stryve.com/legal/shipping and https://stryve.com/legal/privacy and 1 other all use the title “Stryve Protein Snacks”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

https://stryve.com/shop, https://stryve.com/stores, https://stryve.com/subscribe, https://stryve.com/legal/shipping, https://stryve.com/legal/privacy and https://stryve.com/contact use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

https://stryve.com/stores, https://stryve.com/subscribe and https://stryve.com/contact 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.

We fetched 11 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of null (reading 'appendChild')”.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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

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 293 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Xandr (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 9 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 24 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
