Speed

10 to fix53
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    4.3 s · 1.1 MB

    34 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.6 s · 659 KiB

    About 659 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.0 s

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.0 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    3.1 MB

    5 images could be 3.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (elfsightcdn.com, Google Tag Manager and Google CDN and others), adding 5.7 MB and 943 ms of main-thread time.

  • elfsightcdn.com adds 717 ms

    717 ms

    elfsightcdn.com costs a phone 717 ms of main-thread work and 5.0 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 53

    53/100

    Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 57 KiB

    About 57 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 2.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 978 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Shopify adds 13 ms

    13 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 13 ms of main-thread work and 482 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.

  • 9 long tasks on the main thread

    9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 177 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify CSS

    150 ms · 7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 5 ms

    5 ms

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

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix48
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 17.3 s

    17.3 s

    Your largest element takes 17.3 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: 17.6 s

    17.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 17.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 7.2 s

    7.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.18

    0.18

    The layout shifts by 0.18 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 324 ms

    324 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 324 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

5 to fix28
  • Page weight: 6.2 MB in 151 requests

    6.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.2 MB in 151 requests on a phone: images 4.3 MB (70), scripts 1.3 MB (35) and other files 380 KiB (33). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 2.9 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 12 images below the first screen load straight away

    12 images further down the page (3.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (3.2 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.

  • 6 images far larger than shown

    451 KiB

    6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example GriffeyDIG1.png at 1,802 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 451 KiB.

  • About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.76 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.76 g of CO₂e: 211.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 8087
  • 5 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 2 tap targets too small

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

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 16 images without alt text

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (12 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 6 links without text

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

  • 1 form field without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h6, h1 → h3 and h3 → h5), 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 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 9 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 6971
  • No meta description

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

  • Title is short (10 characters)

    Your title is only 10 characters: “TAG Market”. 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.

  • 3 H1 headlines

    There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “TAG MARKET” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 4 links with vague text

    4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 13 internal links, 50 external

    The homepage links to 13 pages on tag.market and 50 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://tag.market/.

  • 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://tag.market/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 (746 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://tag.market/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

5 to fix32
  • 2 linked pages are broken

    Your homepage links to https://tag.market/pages/pricing and https://tag.market/products/customcard, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

  • 1 page without a title

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

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

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

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://tag.market/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://tag.market/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 4 internal pages checked

    We fetched 4 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 11 small tap targets

    11 of 49 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Invalid left-hand side in assignment”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

1 to fix83
  • 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 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 771 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 771 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: “CONTACT” and “SHOP”.

  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “CONTACT”, “SHOP” and “Shop this”.

  • 3 short forms

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

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 4 email links.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager and X (Twitter) Ads (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.

  • 8 cookies set on arrival

    8

    Opening the homepage sets 8 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.

  • 19 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 19 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 tag.market, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
