Speed

5 to fix74
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and okendo.io), adding 12.7 MB and 472 ms of main-thread time.

  • Shopify adds 468 ms

    468 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 468 ms of main-thread work and 12.7 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: 74

    74/100

    Your mobile performance score is 74. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 2,491 HTML elements

    The page has 2,491 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 189 KiB

    10 images could be 189 KiB 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.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 170 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    33 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (33 KiB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    21 KiB

    About 21 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    17 KiB

    About 17 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 742 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 62 ms

    62 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 62 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix74
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.0 s

    5.0 s

    Your largest element takes 5.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Listen carefully”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 5.0 s

    5.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 5.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 7 images without width and height

    7 images 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.

2 checks passed
  • Total Blocking Time: 160 ms

    160 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 160 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 13.0 MB in 89 requests

    13.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 13.0 MB in 89 requests on a phone: media 11.2 MB (2), images 1.2 MB (29) and scripts 329 KiB (49). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images below the first screen load straight away

    5 images further down the page (105 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 3.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.67 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.67 g of CO₂e: 440.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9295
  • 12 text elements with low contrast

    12 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 132 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 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9294
  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: sameAs is an empty list”.

  • 17 links with vague text

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

  • 133 internal links, 19 external

    The homepage links to 133 pages on teadrop.com and 19 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 153 characters

    Your meta description is 153 characters: “Discover the world of specialty tea at Tea Drop. Shop our curated collection of premium loose leaf teas, herbal infusio…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Listen carefully”.

  • Title: 36 characters

    Your title is a healthy 36 characters: “Tea Shop | Buy Tea Online | Tea Drop”.

  • Canonical URL set

  • 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://teadrop.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

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 (1,331 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://teadrop.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 36 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix88
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://teadrop.com/wishlist is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://teadrop.com/wholesale, https://teadrop.com/wishlist and https://teadrop.com/collections/best-selling-teas have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 5 pages slow to respond

    https://teadrop.com/products/english-breakfast, https://teadrop.com/products/my-melbourne, https://teadrop.com/products/chamomile-blossoms, https://teadrop.com/products/peppermint and https://teadrop.com/products/lemongrass-ginger took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 52 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    50 of 54 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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.

  • 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 1,039 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,039 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW” and “Learn more”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Shop All”, “SHOP ALL TEAS” and “CONTACT US”.

  • 9 short forms

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 2 cookies set on arrival

    2

    Opening the homepage sets 2 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.

  • 2 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 2 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 teadrop.com, 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
