Speed

8 to fix55
  • Render-blocking requests

    3.7 s

    62 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.7 s.

  • 4,036 HTML elements

    The page has 4,036 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Main-thread work: 4.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55 (desktop: 70). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot and others), adding 1.6 MB and 780 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    890 KiB

    About 890 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • YouTube adds 432 ms

    432 ms

    YouTube costs a phone 432 ms of main-thread work and 985 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.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 277 ms

    277 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 277 ms of main-thread work and 366 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.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 182 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    134 KiB

    About 134 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    34 KiB

    2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (34 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    28 KiB

    3 images could be 28 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    18 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 18 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

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Server response: 241 ms

    241 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 241 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.7 MB in 170 requests

    2.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 170 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (46), images 299 KiB (39) and fonts 243 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.77 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.77 g of CO₂e: 92.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

  • Images are sized for phones

Accessibility

2 to fixGoogle 9798
  • 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.

  • 3 links without text

    3 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 96 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
