Speed

5 to fix83
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • 9,709 HTML elements

    The page has 9,709 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Improve image delivery

    600 ms · 1,011 KiB

    20 images could be 1,011 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 83

    83/100

    Your mobile performance score is 83. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Main-thread work: 2.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 369 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 22 KiB

    About 22 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    About 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied 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 78 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Google CDN and shop.app), adding 151 KiB and 43 ms of main-thread time.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    41 KiB

    41 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1 KiB

    1 file is served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1 KiB).

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 16 ms

    16 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 16 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

2 to fix78
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 4.6 s

    4.6 s

    Your largest element takes 4.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 4.7 s

    4.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 4.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    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.

4 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 2.8 s

    2.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.8 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 63 ms

    63 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 63 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 2.6 MB in 169 requests

    2.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 169 requests on a phone: images 1.5 MB (25), other files 723 KiB (75) and scripts 225 KiB (44). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    imgpsh_fullsize_anim_-_2024-10-06T063905.756.png 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).

  • 6 images in older formats

    6 images (307 KiB) 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.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.73 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.73 g of CO₂e: 87.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

3 to fixGoogle 9796
  • Scrollable region must have keyboard access (3 elements)

    Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (11 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 11 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 10 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 362 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 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 9269
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • Title is short (13 characters)

    Your title is only 13 characters: “Torpedo Deals”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • Structured data has 1 problem

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: sameAs is an empty list”.

  • No social preview image

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

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 1,134 internal links, 0 external

    The homepage links to 1,134 pages on torpedodeals.com and 0 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://torpedodeals.com/.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://torpedodeals.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

3 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (5,007 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://torpedodeals.com/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://torpedodeals.com/collections/wall-art, https://torpedodeals.com/collections/fabric-lace and https://torpedodeals.com/collections/alarm-clocks have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 198 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    3 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 3 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    105 of 120 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • No call to action on the first screen

    On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Phone number is not tap-to-call

    Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.

  • About 1,448 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,448 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 48 calls to action

    The homepage has 48 calls to action, for example “Tablet & E-Book case”, “Call of The Night” and “Contact”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    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.

  • 3 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at torpedodeals.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
