Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 241 KiBAbout 241 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Improve image delivery
2.5 MB10 images could be 2.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
500 ms · 1.6 MB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.6 MB).
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. 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 (azurefd.net, Bazaarvoice and New Relic and others), adding 558 KiB and 634 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 45 KiBAbout 45 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.
azurefd.net adds 399 ms
399 msazurefd.net costs a phone 399 ms of main-thread work and 300 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.
Main-thread work: 2.7 s
A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 204 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 8 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
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.
Minify CSS
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Server response: 36 ms
36 msYour server sent the HTML in 36 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 9.8 s
9.8 sYour largest element takes 9.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Rabais équivalant aux taxes* Salle à manger Salon Chambre M…”.
Time to Interactive: 9.8 s
9.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 9.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.3 s
6.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 23% slower for real visitors
+23%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 149 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 473 ms
473 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 473 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s
2.4 sThe first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
27 images without width and height
27 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.5 MB in 84 requests
5.5 MBYour homepage downloads 5.5 MB in 84 requests on a phone: images 2.9 MB (30), media 1.6 MB (1) and scripts 608 KiB (18). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
4 images far larger than shown
130 KiB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example circulaire-jeux.jpg at 1,000 px wide, shown at 273 px. Resized copies would save about 130 KiB.
4 images in older formats
4 images (371 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.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.55 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.55 g of CO₂e: 185.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Accessibility
4 buttons without a name
4 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
18 images without alt text
18 images have 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.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one contentinfo landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
2 links without text
2 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 (h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 11 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is short (63 characters)
Your meta description is only 63 characters: “En magasin ou en ligne, vous trouverez du confort chez Tanguay.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
2 links crawlers can't follow
2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
97 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 97 pages on tanguay.ca and 7 external pages.
7 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Rabais équivalantaux taxes*”.
Title: 31 characters
Your title is a healthy 31 characters: “Votre zone de confort | Tanguay”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.tanguay.ca/fr.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: 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://www.tanguay.ca/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.tanguay.ca/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.
2 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 (555 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.tanguay.ca/fr/promotion/2txsam and https://www.tanguay.ca/fr/promotion/2txsalon use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.tanguay.ca/en/home, whose canonical is https://www.tanguay.ca/en. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
1 page without an H1
https://www.tanguay.ca/fr/partage-de-la-liste-de-souhaits has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 60 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load

1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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.

The homepage carries about 334 words of visible text.

3 cookies set on arrival
3Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
14 other companies contacted
