Speed
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 437 KiB4 images could be 437 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 75
75/100Your mobile performance score is 75. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, loox.io and azurefd.net and others), adding 1.2 MB and 373 ms of main-thread time.
azurefd.net adds 58 ms
58 msazurefd.net costs a phone 58 ms of main-thread work and 331 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.
Shopify adds 26 ms
26 msShopify costs a phone 26 ms of main-thread work and 651 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 77 KiB9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (77 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 54 KiBAbout 54 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
191 KiBAbout 191 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 88 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.9 s
A phone's processor spends 1.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 989 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 6 ms
6 msYour server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.8 s
8.8 sYour largest element takes 8.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Placeholder image”.
Time to Interactive: 9.0 s
9.0 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 9.0 s. Good is under 3.8 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.
4 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s
1.1 sThe first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Speed Index: 2.2 s
2.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 2.2 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Total Blocking Time: 27 ms
27 msScripts block the page for only 27 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.1 MB in 400 requests
3.1 MBYour homepage downloads 3.1 MB in 400 requests on a phone: other files 1.3 MB (238), scripts 869 KiB (140) and images 652 KiB (11). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
334 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example general-7.png at 2,260 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 334 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (33 KiB) is 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.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.88 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.88 g of CO₂e: 105.4 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.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (17 characters)
Your title is only 17 characters: “vanessasteststore”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
30 internal links, 1 external
The homepage links to 30 pages on vanessaiscool.ca and 1 external page.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://vanessaiscool.ca/.

AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

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 (381 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://vanessaiscool.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 page without a title
https://vanessaiscool.ca/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/focused-horizontal-tasty-cotton-pants declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://vanessaiscool.ca/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages share a title
/ and https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/focused-horizontal-tasty-cotton-pants all use the title “vanessasteststore”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
7 pages without a meta description
https://vanessaiscool.ca/pages/feed, https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/focused-horizontal-tasty-cotton-pants, https://vanessaiscool.ca/customer_authentication/redirect, https://vanessaiscool.ca/collections/all, https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/2nd-t-shirt and https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/hello-inventory-team and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
3 pages without an H1
https://vanessaiscool.ca/products/focused-horizontal-tasty-cotton-pants, https://vanessaiscool.ca/customer_authentication/redirect and https://vanessaiscool.ca/collections/all have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
