Speed

3 to fix71
  • 3,080 HTML elements

    The page has 3,080 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 71

    71/100

    Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Render-blocking requests

    800 ms

    9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.

  • Improve image delivery

    250 ms · 39 KiB

    1 image could be 39 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Shopify and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 486 KiB and 166 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 31 KiB

    About 31 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 · 28 KiB

    About 28 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    100 ms · 8 KiB

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

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 52 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 413 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix67
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Your largest element takes 8.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 9.6 s

    9.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 88 images without width and height

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 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.

3 checks passed
  • Speed Index: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.029

    0.029

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.029, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 1 ms

    1 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 1 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.4 MB in 228 requests

    2.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 228 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (89), other files 655 KiB (69) and scripts 427 KiB (54). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.68 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 82.0 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

8 to fixGoogle 7685
  • Hidden but focusable

    82 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • <dt> and <dd> elements must be contained by a <dl> (2 elements)

    <dt> and <dd> elements must be contained by a <dl>: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • <dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements (1 element)

    <dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 1 tap target too small

    1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • 87 images without alt text

    87 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • 87 links without text

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

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

1 checks passed
  • 40 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 40 passed and 8 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Other pages

2 to fix88

2 to fix75
  • No social proof

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

  • No analytics detected

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

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

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 trehouse.eu, 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.
