Speed
3,115 HTML elements
The page has 3,115 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
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
900 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, FullStory and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.1 MB and 597 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 193 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (193 KiB).
Improve image delivery
250 ms · 310 KiB22 images could be 310 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.7 s
A phone's processor spends 3.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Shopify adds 226 ms
226 msShopify costs a phone 226 ms of main-thread work and 557 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 168 KiBAbout 168 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 80 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
23 KiBAbout 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.1 MB in 338 requests
3.1 MBYour homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 338 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (154), other files 771 KiB (102) and images 710 KiB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.87 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.87 g of CO₂e: 104.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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

2 form fields without a label

2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 26 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
