Mobile performance score: 64
64/100Your mobile performance score is 64. 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 (Google Maps, Facebook and Clarity and others), adding 1.5 MB and 540 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 116 KiBAbout 116 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
408 KiBAbout 408 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 43 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 43 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Google Maps adds 258 ms
258 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 258 ms of main-thread work and 519 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.
2,741 HTML elements
The page has 2,741 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 2.3 s
A phone's processor spends 2.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
FontAwesome CDN adds 10 ms
10 msFontAwesome CDN costs a phone 10 ms of main-thread work and 576 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 237 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (237 KiB).
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 160 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 8 KiB8 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Improve image delivery
115 KiB8 images could be 115 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 120 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 120 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (35), images 618 KiB (42) and fonts 296 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.74 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.74 g of CO₂e: 88.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Images use modern formats
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
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
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 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5, h3 → h6 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 49 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 3 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (71 characters)
Your title is 71 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Town Fair Tire | 129 Tire Stores Located in CT, MA, ME, NH, NY, RI & VT”.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Corporation) but with 1 problem, for example “Corporation: logo is not an absolute URL ("https://www.townfairtire.com/images/TFTLogo.svg")”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
229 internal links, 6 external
The homepage links to 229 pages on townfairtire.com and 6 external pages.
5 checks passed
Meta description: 154 characters
Your meta description is 154 characters: “Town Fair Tire has 129 tire store locations throughout CT, MA, ME, NH, NY, RI & VT. Visit a store near you to shop for …”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “NOBODY BEATS TOWN FAIR TIRE "N-O-B-O-D-Y"!”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.townfairtire.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://www.townfairtire.com/sitemaps/sitemapindex.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.townfairtire.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.
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.
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 (1,873 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.townfairtire.com/commercial-fleet, whose canonical is https://www.townfairtire.com/commercial-fleet/Commercial%20Fleet%20|%20Town%20Fair%20Tire. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

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.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
A 44-field form
Your longest form asks for 44 fields (0 required). Every extra field lowers completion.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 766 words of copy

5 checks passed
23 calls to action
The homepage has 23 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Shop Tires” and “Shop Wheels”.

6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Ads and 1 more (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.
11 cookies set on arrival
11Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
