Speed

10 to fix34
  • Improve image delivery

    2.0 s · 1.8 MB

    23 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.4 s

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 34

    34/100

    Your mobile performance score is 34. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 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 (Shopify, Intercom and loox.io and others), adding 2.5 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 990 KiB

    About 990 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 647 ms

    647 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 647 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 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.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 312 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • loox.io adds 150 ms

    150 ms

    loox.io costs a phone 150 ms of main-thread work and 684 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.

  • 1,602 HTML elements

    The page has 1,602 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 127 KiB

    About 127 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    177 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (177 KiB).

  • Minify CSS

    66 KiB

    66 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    48 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 48 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 18 ms

    18 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 18 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 11.6 s

    11.6 s

    Your largest element takes 11.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 29.0 s

    29.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 29.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.425

    0.425

    The layout shifts by 0.425 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Speed Index: 6.9 s

    6.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s

    2.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 408 ms

    408 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 408 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 13 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 104 ms to 97 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 96 ms

    96 ms

    Real visitors wait 96 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.06

    0.06

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.06 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 424 ms

    424 ms

    Real visitors wait 424 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 13% faster for real visitors

    -13%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.6 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight

3 to fix53
  • Page weight: 6.4 MB in 273 requests

    6.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.4 MB in 273 requests on a phone: images 3.0 MB (60), scripts 2.2 MB (106) and other files 909 KiB (77). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 12 images below the first screen load straight away

    12 images further down the page (1.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • 12 images far larger than shown

    242 KiB

    12 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 27.png at 1,200 px wide, shown at 354 px. Resized copies would save about 242 KiB.

  • About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.81 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.81 g of CO₂e: 217.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 8493
  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (3 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 29 images without alt text

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

  • 14 links without text

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

  • 5 form fields without a label

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

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 49 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

2 to fixGoogle 9290
  • 3 H1 headlines

    There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Creator Mirrors are Here!” and “SHOP YOUR FAVORITE FANDOMS!”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (302 characters)

    Your meta description is 302 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 37 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 37 pages on v1tech.com and 13 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 58 characters

    Your title is a healthy 58 characters: “Custom PC Mod Parts, Wall Art, Mouse Pads & More | V1 Tech”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.v1tech.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://www.v1tech.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
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 (197 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

3 to fix88
  • 9 pages without a meta description

    /a/wishlist-hero/wishlist, /collections/creator-mirrors, /collections/kpop-demon-hunters, /collections/zentreya, /collections/louzan and /pages/about-us and 3 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages share a meta description

    /products/v1-tech-draw-creator-mirror, /products/v1-tech-illustrator-creator-mirror and /products/v1-tech-photoshop-creator-mirror use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 page without an H1

    /a/wishlist-hero/wishlist has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 3 pages with very little text

    /a/wishlist-hero/wishlist, /policies/refund-policy and /pages/wholesale have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    14 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 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9278
  • 2 broken images

    2 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://www.v1tech.com/cdn/shop/files/1698938815_0_2048x.jpg?v=5907.

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    29 of 29 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • 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 https://www.v1tech.com/customer_authentication/redirect?locale=en&region_country=US.

  • 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 (v1tech.com).

  • Valid certificate (53 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for v1tech.com and is valid for another 53 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://v1tech.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 36 links work

    All 36 links checked from your homepage (29 internal, 7 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • DNSSEC is off

    v1tech.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 14 years old

    14 years

    v1tech.com was registered in Oct 2012 through NameCheap, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only pki.goog, ssl.com, digicert.com and globalsign.com to issue certificates for v1tech.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

  • Registered until May 2032

    v1tech.com is registered until May 2032.

Content and conversion

3 to fix75
  • No social proof

    No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

  • 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.

  • Only about 169 words

    The homepage has only about 169 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “NEW Mirrors are here! Shop Now!” and “Kpop Demon Hunters Shop Now!”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “NEW Mirrors are here! Shop Now!”, “Kpop Demon Hunters Shop Now!” and “NEW ZENTREYA Shop Now!”.

  • 6 short forms

    6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Microsoft Clarity.

  • Risk reducer mentioned

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

Email authentication

2 to fix60
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be v1tech.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 60/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 a:v1tech.com ip4:204.236.143.56 include:_spf.smtp.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 3 trackers load before any consent

    3

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Klaviyo, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (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.

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies, 1 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.

  • 30 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 30 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 15 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.

  • Hulk Product Options · problem reported Oct 2026attackers planted code in its settings that sent shoppers who pressed Checkout to a fake checkout page taking card details. What to do: update the app, check its settings for code or HTML you didn't add, and test checkout in a private window.

Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
