Speed
Improve image delivery
1.4 s · 218 KiB5 images could be 218 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 77
77/100Your mobile performance score is 77. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
400 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 400 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
180 ms · 40 KiBAbout 40 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 180 ms faster on a phone.
2 third-party services on the page
2 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify and shop.app), adding 138 KiB and 27 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
6 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6 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.
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: 0.8 s
A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 231 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 7 ms
7 msYour server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.6 s
5.6 sYour largest element takes 5.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 5.6 s
5.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 5.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 3.9 s
3.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 3.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
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
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
4 images in older formats
4 images (320 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 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.43 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.43 g of CO₂e: 51.8 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 207 requests
1.5 MBYour homepage downloads 1.5 MB in 207 requests on a phone: other files 783 KiB (96), scripts 306 KiB (97) and images 261 KiB (5). That is a lean page.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (4 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 image without alt text

44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (10 characters)
Your title is only 10 characters: “Fittington”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
29 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 29 pages on thefittington.com and 0 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://thefittington.com/.

Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://thefittington.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

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 (293 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://thefittington.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
5 pages without a meta description
https://thefittington.com/collections/shoes, https://thefittington.com/collections/upper-garment, https://thefittington.com/collections/trousers, https://thefittington.com/collections/all and https://thefittington.com/policies/privacy-policy have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
4 pages without an H1
https://thefittington.com/collections/shoes, https://thefittington.com/collections/upper-garment, https://thefittington.com/collections/trousers and https://thefittington.com/collections/all have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
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.
Only about 172 words
The homepage has only about 172 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
3 checks passed
