Speed

12 to fix49
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    9.3 s · 2.6 MB

    51 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (2.6 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.2 s · 1.3 MB

    About 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.2 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 49

    49/100

    Your mobile performance score is 49. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 7.5 s

    A phone's processor spends 7.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (googleapis.com, Shopify and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 4.7 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    690 ms · 270 KiB

    About 270 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 690 ms faster on a phone.

  • googleapis.com adds 652 ms

    652 ms

    googleapis.com costs a phone 652 ms of main-thread work and 2.1 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.

  • Shopify adds 317 ms

    317 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 317 ms of main-thread work and 1.6 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.

  • 18 long tasks on the main thread

    18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 291 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 2,280 HTML elements

    The page has 2,280 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Klaviyo adds 118 ms

    118 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 118 ms of main-thread work and 315 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    114 KiB

    9 images could be 114 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    20 KiB

    20 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    8 KiB

    8 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • 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.

  • Minify CSS

    4 KiB

    4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 20 ms

    20 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 20 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 24.5 s

    24.5 s

    Your largest element takes 24.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “The expert in certified pre-owned electric bikes Up to 65% …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 44.9 s

    44.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 44.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 7 images without width and height

    7 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +3%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 139 ms to 145 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.044

    0.044

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.044, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 8.2 MB in 408 requests

    8.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 8.2 MB in 408 requests on a phone: scripts 3.9 MB (168), images 2.0 MB (76) and other files 1.2 MB (130). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.31 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.31 g of CO₂e: 277.3 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

15 to fixGoogle 7582
  • 18 buttons without a name

    18 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Unlabelled dropdowns

    1 dropdown has no label.

  • 13 text elements with low contrast

    13 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • 7 tap targets too small

    7 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 19 images without alt text

    19 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one main landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one main landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 33 links without text

    33 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 12 form fields without a label

    12 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (2 elements)

    Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 passed and 15 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8584
  • 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.

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • 199 internal links, 23 external

    The homepage links to 199 pages on upway.co and 23 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 146 characters

    Your meta description is 146 characters: “Discover top-quality electric bikes at Upway. Save up to 60%, enjoy a 1-year warranty, and get fast home delivery. Find…”.

  • Title: 65 characters

    Your title is a healthy 65 characters: “Electric Bikes for Sale | Up to 60% Off | 1-Year Warranty | Upway”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://upway.co/.

  • 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://upway.co/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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.

3 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 (1,789 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://upway.co/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

3 to fix86
  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://upway.co/pages/wishlist is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://upway.co/apps/bubblehouse/rewards and https://upway.co/pages/wishlist use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://upway.co/pages/find-my-bike, https://upway.co/apps/bubblehouse/rewards and https://upway.co/pages/wishlist 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 121 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9279
  • 36 small tap targets

    36 of 126 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • Scrolls sideways on phones

    On a 390 px-wide phone the page scrolls sideways, a sign that something is wider than the screen.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix67
  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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.

  • About 1,128 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,128 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Talk to an expert”, “Call with an expert” and “Try our e-Bike Finder”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (6 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Amazon Ads, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and LinkedIn Insight and 2 mores (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.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 47 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 47 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

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 upway.co, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
