Speed
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 1.0 MB18 images could be 1.0 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
470 ms · 657 KiBAbout 657 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 470 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 74
74/100Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Google Tag Manager and omnisnippet1.com and others), adding 1.7 MB and 545 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 269 ms
269 msShopify costs a phone 269 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.
Main-thread work: 3.0 s
A phone's processor spends 3.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 994 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,487 HTML elements
The page has 2,487 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
149 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (149 KiB).
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 122 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
10 ms · 52 KiBAbout 52 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 10 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
18 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 18 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 9.6 MB in 392 requests
9.6 MBYour homepage downloads 9.6 MB in 392 requests on a phone: media 4.9 MB (1), images 1.6 MB (37) and scripts 1.6 MB (137). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
hero-banner-1600x600_533x.webp 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).
11 images in older formats
11 images (572 KiB) 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.
1 image far larger than shown
53 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example thumbnail.jpg at 1,472 px wide, shown at 225 px. Resized copies would save about 53 KiB.
About 2.7 g of CO₂ per visit
2.73 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.73 g of CO₂e: 327.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Unlabelled dropdowns
3 dropdowns have no label.
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (1 element)
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Summary elements must have discernible text (3 elements)
Summary elements must have discernible text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (27 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 27 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (9 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 12 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (25 characters)
Your title is only 25 characters: “Tackform Mounting Systems”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is long (311 characters)
Your meta description is 311 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

AI search readiness
Some text only appears after JavaScript runs

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.
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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.tackform.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
https://www.tackform.com/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://www.tackform.com/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
9 pages without a meta description

14 pages without an H1
https://www.tackform.com/pages/contact-us, https://www.tackform.com/pages/shipping-info, https://www.tackform.com/pages/returns, https://www.tackform.com/pages/govx-thank-you-for-your-service, https://www.tackform.com/customer_authentication/redirect and https://www.tackform.com/pages/vehicle-selector and 8 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

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.

19 cookies set on arrival
19Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
