thetallowedtruth.com website review

About 627 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.

A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and Clarity and others), adding 1.7 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.

Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (139 KiB).

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

Polyfills for old browsers add 40 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

Shopify costs a phone 209 ms of main-thread work and 669 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 costs a phone 168 ms of main-thread work and 312 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.

azurefd.net costs a phone 74 ms of main-thread work and 329 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.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 156 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

4 images could be 49 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 44 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

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.

2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Your largest element takes 19.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Grass-fed cattle in an open pasture”.

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

The page becomes fully interactive after 21.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The first text or image appears after 3.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 136 ms to 152 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 537 requests on a phone: scripts 2.0 MB (162), other files 1.6 MB (327) and images 300 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.22 g of CO₂e: 146.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Your title is 76 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “The Tallowed Truth. Life Changing Animal Based Cosmetics. – TheTallowedTruth”.

There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “The Real Secret To Better Skin.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

Your meta description is 195 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

The homepage links to 58 pages on thetallowedtruth.com and 5 external pages.

Your robots.txt lets ChatGPT (ChatGPT-User) and Perplexity (PerplexityBot) read the homepage but closes other sections to them, so answers about those pages can't cite you.

There is no https://thetallowedtruth.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.

https://thetallowedtruth.com/collections/bundle-and-save and https://thetallowedtruth.com/pages/ingredients have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 20 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()”.

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

The homepage carries about 481 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 3 mores (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 57 cookies, 3 of them by other companies (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 61 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
