Use efficient cache lifetimes
8.5 s · 6.0 MB41 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6.0 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 375 KiBAbout 375 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
950 ms · 1.4 MB10 images could be 1.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 950 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 52
52/100Your mobile performance score is 52. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Maps and Google Analytics and others), adding 990 KiB and 742 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 350 ms
350 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 350 ms of main-thread work and 307 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 Maps adds 322 ms
322 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 322 ms of main-thread work and 477 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 CSS
300 ms · 46 KiBAbout 46 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 185 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 17 KiB17 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 14 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 12 KiB12 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Font display
100 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 100 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: 1.6 s
A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 665 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 50 ms
50 msYour server sent the HTML in 50 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
First Contentful Paint: 15.6 s
15.6 sThe first text or image appears after 15.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 41.2 s
41.2 sYour largest element takes 41.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
Speed Index: 15.6 s
15.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 15.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 42.2 s
42.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 42.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
4 images without width and height
4 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
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.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 191 ms
191 msScripts block the page for only 191 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.7 MB in 213 requests
10.7 MBYour homepage downloads 10.7 MB in 213 requests on a phone: images 6.8 MB (39), scripts 3.2 MB (101) and stylesheets 265 KiB (41). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images over 500 KB
3 images weigh 3.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
8 images in older formats
8 images (4.9 MB) 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.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (1.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images far larger than shown
414 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example pic10.jpg at 1,863 px wide, shown at 245 px. Resized copies would save about 414 KiB.
About 3.0 g of CO₂ per visit
3.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.03 g of CO₂e: 364.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Images must have alternative text (1 element)
Images must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Frames without titles
2 frames have no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what they contain.
<html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)
<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails 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.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
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.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
5 form fields without a label
5 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
Headings should not be empty (2 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

25 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 34 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 25 passed and 9 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
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 robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at tropicallashesandbrows.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
Only 4 internal links
The homepage links to only 4 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

Your XML sitemap is reachable at http://tropicallashesandbrows.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://tropicallashesandbrows.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.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,738 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Best practices

1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 628 words of copy
The homepage carries about 628 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
2 calls to action
The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact”.

Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel (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.
5 cookies set on arrival
5Opening the homepage sets 5 cookies (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 tropicallashesandbrows.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
