Speed

11 to fix62
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.1 s · 351 KiB

    About 351 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 4.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and Clarity and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 308 KiB

    9 images could be 308 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 62

    62/100

    Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 463 ms

    463 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 463 ms of main-thread work and 322 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    450 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

  • Shopify adds 290 ms

    290 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 290 ms of main-thread work and 308 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 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 310 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    254 KiB

    19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (254 KiB).

  • 1,700 HTML elements

    The page has 1,700 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 75 KiB

    About 75 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.

  • Minify CSS

    7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Minify JavaScript

    7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix100

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.007

    0.007

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.007, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.0 MB in 221 requests

    3.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 221 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (81), images 857 KiB (24) and other files 695 KiB (99). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (151 KiB) is 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.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.86 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 102.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • 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

6 to fixGoogle 8591
  • 19 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Hidden but focusable

    2 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • Documents must have <title> element to aid in navigation (1 element)

    Documents must have <title> element to aid in navigation: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 link without text

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

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 55 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 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8579
  • No meta description

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

  • Title is short (6 characters)

    Your title is only 6 characters: “icon-X”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • 262 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 262 pages on surfari.ch and 8 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Surfari Surf Shop”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://surfari.ch/.

  • 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://surfari.ch/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    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.

3 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (818 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

4 to fix58
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://surfari.ch/pages/retouren, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 15 pages share a title

    /, https://surfari.ch/collections/boards, https://surfari.ch/collections/wellenreitboards, https://surfari.ch/collections/poolboards, https://surfari.ch/collections/bodyboards and https://surfari.ch/collections/surfboard-sale and 9 others all use the title “icon-X”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 14 pages without a meta description

    https://surfari.ch/collections/boards, https://surfari.ch/collections/wellenreitboards, https://surfari.ch/collections/poolboards, https://surfari.ch/collections/bodyboards, https://surfari.ch/collections/surfboard-sale and https://surfari.ch/collections/custom-order-surfboard and 8 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://surfari.ch/collections/custom-order-surfboard has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 3 pages slow to respond

    https://surfari.ch/collections/boards, https://surfari.ch/collections/wellenreitboards and https://surfari.ch/collections/bodyboards took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 138 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 10078
  • 1 broken image

    1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=187004419&Ver=2&mid=ae9593eb-7fc3-4e04-b9d1-ab70a27f9f10&bo=1&sid=3ff81b20da7f11f19db2df40c7613862&vid=3ff86260da7f11f1ac5cfd0b10d73649&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=918639831&l.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    13 of 16 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix81
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No opening hours

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

  • 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 513 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 513 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Surfari Shop Team”.

  • 4 short forms

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

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 34 testimonial or review blocks, 13 customer or partner logos and a star rating.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 2 phone links and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Ads and 1 more (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.

  • 19 cookies set on arrival

    19

    Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (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.

  • 32 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 32 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 surfari.ch, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
