Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
3.5 s · 580 KiB7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (580 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.6 s · 475 KiBAbout 475 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 71
71/100Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 132 KiBAbout 132 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
50 ms · 778 KiB23 images could be 778 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 300 ms.
good-apps.co adds 85 ms
85 msgood-apps.co costs a phone 85 ms of main-thread work and 579 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.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, good-apps.co and devit.software), adding 731 KiB and 211 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 79 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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 7.8 s
7.8 sYour largest element takes 7.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 7.8 s
7.8 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.8 s
4.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 1.9 s
1.9 sThe first text or image appears after 1.9 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.
2 checks passed

0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 61 ms
61 msScripts block the page for only 61 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 173 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 173 requests on a phone: images 1.1 MB (30), other files 982 KiB (100) and scripts 738 KiB (34). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
UnitedVapes.com_-_Hyola_1.jpg 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).
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.85 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 102.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Vapes United | Vape Kits, Disposables & e-Liquids at wholesale prices”.

Content and conversion
