trulabs.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.5 s · 440 KiBAbout 440 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.2 s · 392 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (392 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58. 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 (Shopify, alia-prod.com and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.5 MB and 578 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 139 KiB6 images could be 139 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 44 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 44 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.1 s
A phone's processor spends 3.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Shopify adds 222 ms
222 msShopify costs a phone 222 ms of main-thread work and 639 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.
Render-blocking requests
250 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 250 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 40 KiBAbout 40 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.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 86 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 500 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 500 requests on a phone: scripts 1.5 MB (187), other files 1.3 MB (257) and images 434 KiB (28). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.02 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.02 g of CO₂e: 121.9 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
11 tap targets too small
11 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Hidden but focusable
3 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 27 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (22 characters)
Your title is only 22 characters: “TruLabs | Achieve More”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“TruLabs” and “Tastes great. Works hard. Just like you.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (246 characters)
Your meta description is 246 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
98 internal links, 24 external
The homepage links to 98 pages on trulabs.com and 24 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://trulabs.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://trulabs.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 /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
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 (826 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
4 pages without a meta description
/collections/all, /collections/shaker-cups, /collections/t-shirts and /pages/email-list have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages without an H1
/pages/subscribe and /pages/email-list have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 42 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
5 checks passed
Linked pages load
11 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.
No linked page is hidden from search
None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.
Every page has a title
All 11 pages that loaded have a <title>.
Best practices
14 small tap targets
14 of 29 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
2 links through redirect chains
2 links go through two or more redirects, for example http://instagram.com/trulabs.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (trulabs.com).
Valid certificate (51 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for trulabs.com and is valid for another 51 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://trulabs.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 49 links work
All 49 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 9 external) answered without errors; 3 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
trulabs.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
trulabs.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed
Domain is 21 years old
21 yearstrulabs.com was registered in Jun 2005 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Jun 2033
trulabs.com is registered until Jun 2033.
Content and conversion
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
About 373 words of copy
The homepage carries about 373 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW” and “Shop New Flavors”.
13 calls to action
The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Subscribe to Save” and “Contact”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 15 testimonial or review blocks and a star rating.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be trulabs.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “k1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel 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.
15 cookies set on arrival
15Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
