thosbaker.com website review

15 images could be 1.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.5 s faster on a phone.

13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.

Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

5 third-party services load with your homepage (flash-speed.com, cdnfonts.com and Shopify and others), adding 107 KiB and 12 ms of main-thread time.

3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (8 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.

Your largest element takes 14.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 15.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 4.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

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

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

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.

Veranda2_adc2f34a-3cf6-4c99-8603-108d70547a8e.webp weighs 608 KiB. 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 Veranda2_adc2f34a-3cf6-4c99-8603-108d70547a8e.webp at 4,096 px wide, shown at 1,200 px. Resized copies would save about 557 KiB.

Your homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 91 requests on a phone: images 3.3 MB (22), scripts 176 KiB (26) and fonts 128 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

TB-NoPromo-Category-Dining.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

4 images (1.0 MB) 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.05 g of CO₂e: 125.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

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

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 152 pages on thosbaker.com and 12 external pages.

There is no /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.

/collections/all and /collections/chaises have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 47 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

thosbaker.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

thosbaker.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

The homepage has only about 137 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be thosbaker.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

Opening the homepage sets 6 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 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
