Speed

3 to fix83
  • Mobile performance score: 83

    83/100

    Your mobile performance score is 83. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Improve image delivery

    500 ms · 312 KiB

    9 images could be 312 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    500 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 500 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    260 ms · 54 KiB

    About 54 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 260 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    110 ms · 18 KiB

    About 18 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 110 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 82 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 2 third-party services on the page

    2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 74 KiB and 38 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    5 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 370 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix77
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    Your largest element takes 4.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Canadian Distributor of Premium Outdoor Gear”.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.035

    0.035

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.035, good is under 0.1).

  • 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.

  • Speed Index: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 1.2 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 32 ms

    32 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 32 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (20 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.44 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.44 g of CO₂e: 52.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.5 MB in 127 requests

    1.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.5 MB in 127 requests on a phone: other files 686 KiB (82), images 605 KiB (11) and scripts 235 KiB (30). That is a lean page.

  • 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

Google 100100
2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 6 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 0 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10092
  • Meta description is short (44 characters)

    Your meta description is only 44 characters: “Canadian Distributor of Premium Outdoor Gear”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • Only 2 internal links

    The homepage links to only 2 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “<img src="//terraoutdoorgear.com/cdn/shop/files/terralogo_250x.png?v=1614314821" srcset="//terraoutdoorgear.com/cdn/sho…”.

  • Title: 50 characters

    Your title is a healthy 50 characters: “Terra Outdoor Gear Distribution – TerraOutdoorGear”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://terraoutdoorgear.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and 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://terraoutdoorgear.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://terraoutdoorgear.com/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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (281 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 10087
  • 1 small tap target

    1 of 5 tappable elements near the top of the page is smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion

5 to fix33
  • 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 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 256 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 256 words of visible text.

1 checks passed
  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 4 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 4 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 terraoutdoorgear.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
