One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Facebook and Adroll and others), adding 65.7 MB and 562 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 290 ms
290 msShopify costs a phone 290 ms of main-thread work and 65.3 MB 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.
Mobile performance score: 82
82/100Your mobile performance score is 82. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
312 KiBAbout 312 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
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.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 249 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
246 KiB35 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (246 KiB).
Improve image delivery
124 KiB4 images could be 124 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
23 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 23 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
23 KiBAbout 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
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
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

19.01 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 19.01 g of CO₂e: 2281.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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.

SEO
Meta description is long (320 characters)
Your meta description is 320 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
67 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 67 pages on tuftintl.com and 7 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 30 characters
Your title is a healthy 30 characters: “Tuft International – TUFT INTL”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://tuftintl.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
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://tuftintl.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (292 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://tuftintl.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
8 pages without a meta description
https://tuftintl.com/collections/new-launch, https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-curling-iron/Curling, https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-shavers, https://tuftintl.com/collections/salon-accessories-copy, https://tuftintl.com/collections/play-by-tuft-hair-accessories and https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-hair-machine and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-curling-iron/Curling, whose canonical is https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-curling-iron. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
4 pages slow to respond
https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-curling-iron/Curling, https://tuftintl.com/products/tuft-1-6017-granite-plus-professional-hair-iron-black, https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-barber-hair-clipper/clipper and https://tuftintl.com/collections/tuft-shavers took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

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.
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 analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
Only about 172 words
The homepage has only about 172 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
6 checks passed
