Speed

5 to fix69
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.8 s · 537 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (537 KiB).

  • Mobile performance score: 69

    69/100

    Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 5 third-party services on the page

    5 third-party services load with your homepage (roseperl.com, Klaviyo and Shopify and others), adding 1.4 MB and 449 ms of main-thread time.

  • roseperl.com adds 316 ms

    316 ms

    roseperl.com costs a phone 316 ms of main-thread work and 1.1 MB 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 239 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    19 KiB

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

  • Improve image delivery

    12 KiB

    1 image could be 12 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 378 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix64
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 12.3 s

    12.3 s

    Your largest element takes 12.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Mystic Tan Unity spray booth shown with a photo collage of …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 14.1 s

    14.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 16% slower for real visitors

    +16%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 79 ms to 88 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.2 s to 1.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 167 ms

    167 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 167 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.5 MB in 205 requests

    2.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.5 MB in 205 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (63), other files 804 KiB (111) and images 120 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.71 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.71 g of CO₂e: 84.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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 9999
  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 10 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 10090
  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “Your Home for Sunless Tanning”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (315 characters)

    Your meta description is 315 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 31 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 31 pages on sunless.com and 3 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 43 characters

    Your title is a healthy 43 characters: “Your Home for Sunless Tanning – Innove, Inc”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://sunless.com/.

  • 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://sunless.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, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (403 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

4 to fix68
  • 1 page without a title

    /customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    /customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 5 pages without a meta description

    /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/about-us, /policies/privacy-policy, /policies/terms-of-service and /policies/refund-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 5 pages without an H1

    /pages/versaspa-in-salon, /pages/salon-locator, /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/about-us and /pages/frequently-asked-questions have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 1 page with very little text

    /pages/contact-us 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.

  • 14 internal pages checked

    We fetched 14 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 14 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.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://cdn.roseperl.com/storelocator-prod/assets/css/findonline-1790231520.css' from orig…”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    11 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix60
  • No call to action on the first screen

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

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • 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 435 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 435 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact”.

  • 1 short form

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo (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.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 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.

  • 9 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 9 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 sunless.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Your storefront loads 4 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
