thebangerstore.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 89. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

About 57 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

9 images could be 287 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 150 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

107 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 71 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, shop.app and Google Fonts), adding 82 KiB and 22 ms of main-thread time.

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

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Visually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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.

Your homepage downloads 4.5 MB in 141 requests on a phone: images 3.2 MB (16), other files 736 KiB (85) and scripts 248 KiB (30). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

3 images weigh 2.0 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example block-1.svg at 4,800 px wide, shown at 40 px. Resized copies would save about 2.4 MB.

3 images further down the page (2.0 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.29 g of CO₂e: 154.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

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

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

Your title is only 16 characters: “The Banger Store”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

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

The homepage links to 86 pages on thebangerstore.com and 0 external pages.

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.

https://thebangerstore.com/collections/rigs-accessories, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/oil-rigs, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/caps, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/terp-pearls, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/pendants and https://thebangerstore.com/collections/dab-mats and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://thebangerstore.com/collections/quartz-bangers, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/premium-series, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/clearance-bangers, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/rigs-accessories, https://thebangerstore.com/collections/oil-rigs and https://thebangerstore.com/collections/caps and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 34 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

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 testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

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

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

The homepage has only about 231 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

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

Opening the homepage sets 9 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
