Speed

14 to fix33
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.3 s · 1.3 MB

    About 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.3 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.4 s · 353 KiB

    15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (353 KiB).

  • Main-thread work: 10.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 10.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Mobile performance score: 33

    33/100

    Your mobile performance score is 33. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Google Tag Manager and ZenDesk and others), adding 3.0 MB and 3.1 s of main-thread time.

  • YouTube adds 970 ms

    970 ms

    YouTube costs a phone 970 ms of main-thread work and 1,005 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    700 ms

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 578 ms

    578 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 578 ms of main-thread work and 500 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.

  • ZenDesk adds 396 ms

    396 ms

    ZenDesk costs a phone 396 ms of main-thread work and 431 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.

  • Klaviyo adds 382 ms

    382 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 382 ms of main-thread work and 390 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 407 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 55 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 55 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • cloudfront.net adds 281 ms

    281 ms

    cloudfront.net costs a phone 281 ms of main-thread work and 32 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.

  • 1,526 HTML elements

    The page has 1,526 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    60 ms · 145 KiB

    About 145 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 60 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    136 KiB

    7 images could be 136 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 15.0 s

    15.0 s

    Your largest element takes 15.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 30.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 30.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 14.9 s

    14.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 14.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 2.6 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s

    2.6 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 2 images without width and height

    2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) got 11% slower for real visitors

    +11%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 96 ms to 106 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.2 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.2 s

    Real visitors wait 414 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

2 to fix60
  • Page weight: 5.3 MB in 258 requests

    5.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 258 requests on a phone: scripts 3.2 MB (106), images 776 KiB (15) and other files 749 KiB (110). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    172 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example la-familia-promo.png at 2,172 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 172 KiB.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (243 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.49 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.49 g of CO₂e: 179.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8489
  • 8 text elements with low contrast

    8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • <dt> and <dd> elements must be contained by a <dl> (8 elements)

    <dt> and <dd> elements must be contained by a <dl>: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Links must have discernible text (5 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • <dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements (4 elements)

    <dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 8 form fields without a label

    8 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 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 27 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 9298
  • 4 links with vague text

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

  • 103 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 103 pages on thekingofpomade.com and 11 external pages.

8 checks passed

4 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 (978 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://suavecito.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

3 to fix86
  • 2 linked pages hidden from search

    https://suavecito.com/collections/gift-sets/Suavecito+ and https://suavecito.com/collections/gift-sets/Suavecita are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://suavecito.com/collections/gift-sets/Suavecito+ and https://suavecito.com/collections/gift-sets/Suavecita use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

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

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 44 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 44 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions
