travsim.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Main-thread work: 7.9 s
A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
5,729 HTML elements
The page has 5,729 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and Clarity and others), adding 1.3 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
884 KiB10 images could be 884 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Google Tag Manager adds 687 ms
687 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 687 ms of main-thread work and 611 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.
Shopify adds 685 ms
685 msShopify costs a phone 685 ms of main-thread work and 367 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
549 KiBAbout 549 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 327 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
227 KiB26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (227 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 25 KiBAbout 25 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.
Duplicated JavaScript
33 KiB33 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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Time to Interactive: 18.0 s
18.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 1.0 s
1.0 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.0 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 37% slower for real visitors
+37%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 147 ms to 205 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s

Largest Contentful Paint: 3.5 s
3.5 sYour largest element takes 3.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Speed Index: 3.8 s

Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
Gif15seconds-300px.gif weighs 2.2 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 282 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 282 requests on a phone: images 1.2 MB (58), scripts 1.1 MB (77) and other files 882 KiB (113). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (2.2 MB) is 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.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (43 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.01 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.01 g of CO₂e: 121.5 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
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (2 elements)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 36 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
52 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 7 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (FAQPage, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: sameAs is an empty list”.
5 links crawlers can't follow
5 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
122 internal links, 1 external
The homepage links to 122 pages on travsim.com and 1 external page.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 148 characters
Your meta description is 148 characters: “Prepaid travel eSIMs and SIM cards for 200+ destinations. No roaming bills, clear prices and 24/7 chat help from our tr…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Your Journey, Your Connection”.
Title: 58 characters
Your title is a healthy 58 characters: “Travel eSIMs and SIM cards for 200+ destinations | travSIM”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://travsim.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
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://travsim.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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 (3,210 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
4 pages without a meta description
/pages/sim-activation, /customer_authentication/redirect, /pages/contact-us and /pages/recharge have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
11 pages without an H1
/customer_authentication/redirect, /collections/sim-cards, /collections/esims, /pages/contact-us, /pages/recharge and /collections/north-america and 5 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
/pages/contact-us and /pages/recharge have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 45 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed
Linked pages load
All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.
Canonical URLs point to themselves

http:// redirects to https

Domain and trust
No CAA record
