Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.9 s · 594 KiBAbout 594 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
1.3 s · 740 KiB24 images could be 740 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.3 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 55
55/100Your mobile performance score is 55. 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 Tag Manager, Hotjar and loox.io and others), adding 1.3 MB and 856 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 170 KiB14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (170 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 83 KiBAbout 83 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 352 ms
352 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 352 ms of main-thread work and 661 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.
Main-thread work: 2.6 s
A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,953 HTML elements
The page has 1,953 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 168 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
50 ms · 6 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 6 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
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.

Server response: 8 ms

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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 16.8 s
16.8 sYour largest element takes 16.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 16.9 s
16.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 8.1 s
8.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 8.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.0 s
3.0 sThe first text or image appears after 3.0 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.18
0.18For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.18 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
28 images without width and height
28 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Total Blocking Time: 307 ms
307 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 307 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Tap response (INP) got 13% slower for real visitors
+13%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 137 ms to 156 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.2 MB in 334 requests
4.2 MBYour homepage downloads 4.2 MB in 334 requests on a phone: images 1.6 MB (73), scripts 1.4 MB (73) and other files 873 KiB (142). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Best_Sellers_-_Mobile.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
6 images far larger than shown
318 KiB6 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Best_Sellers_-_Mobile.png at 1,725 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 318 KiB.
3 images in older formats
3 images (144 KiB) 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 (110 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.19 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.19 g of CO₂e: 142.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility

All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)

Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
15 links without text
15 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
8 form fields without a label
8 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (7 elements)
Headings should not be empty: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (1 element)
Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h1 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 88 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 69 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 17 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
