Speed

11 to fix44
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.0 s · 935 KiB

    About 935 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.6 s · 531 KiB

    18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (531 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    1.0 s · 631 KiB

    16 images could be 631 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 44

    44/100

    Your mobile performance score is 44. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 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 CDN, Google Tag Manager and podium.com and others), adding 2.1 MB and 1.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    750 ms · 128 KiB

    About 128 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 477 ms

    477 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 477 ms of main-thread work and 795 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 422 ms

    422 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 422 ms of main-thread work and 532 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.

  • podium.com adds 286 ms

    286 ms

    podium.com costs a phone 286 ms of main-thread work and 503 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.

  • 14 long tasks on the main thread

    14 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 182 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 26 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 26 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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 JavaScript

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 568 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 15% slower for real visitors

    +15%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 112 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

    +8%

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.038

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 7.9 MB in 300 requests

    7.9 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.9 MB in 300 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (59), scripts 2.1 MB (71) and other files 1.3 MB (133). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    174 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example TCXToolbox-1.png at 2,250 px wide, shown at 60 px. Resized copies would save about 174 KiB.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (68 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 2.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.24 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.24 g of CO₂e: 268.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

11 to fixGoogle 7785
  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    2 dropdowns have no label.

  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Hidden but focusable

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

  • 10 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 33 form fields without a label

    33 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 16 links without text

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

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (10 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor 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 54 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 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: 43 passed and 10 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10095

7 checks passed

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 2 pages without a meta description

    https://www.tcboxes.com.au/pages/gallery and https://www.tcboxes.com.au/pages/black-friday have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages without an H1

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

    9

    26

    Opening the homepage sets 26 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 48 other companies contacted

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 tcboxes.com.au, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 9 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
