Speed

13 to fix43
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.3 s

    18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.

  • Main-thread work: 12.0 s

    A phone's processor spends 12.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 10,750 HTML elements

    The page has 10,750 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 43

    43/100

    Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, alia-prod.com and Shopify and others), adding 2.0 MB and 2.0 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    803 KiB

    About 803 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    593 KiB

    17 images could be 593 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 506 ms

    506 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 506 ms of main-thread work and 471 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.

  • alia-prod.com adds 418 ms

    418 ms

    alia-prod.com costs a phone 418 ms of main-thread work and 445 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 374 ms

    374 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 374 ms of main-thread work and 357 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

    384 KiB

    55 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (384 KiB).

  • rebuyengine.com adds 281 ms

    281 ms

    rebuyengine.com costs a phone 281 ms of main-thread work and 487 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 328 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    71 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 71 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    28 KiB

    About 28 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Minify JavaScript

    24 KiB

    24 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    5 KiB

    5 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 22 ms

    22 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 22 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix45
  • Time to Interactive: 25.8 s

    25.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 25.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 13.4 s

    13.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 13.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.7 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 5.1 s

    5.1 s

    Your largest element takes 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “EARLY BLACK FRIDAY SALE”.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 4 images without width and height

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 5.1 MB in 392 requests

    5.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 392 requests on a phone: scripts 2.3 MB (136), images 1.5 MB (55) and other files 810 KiB (127). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.46 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.46 g of CO₂e: 175.0 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

5 to fixGoogle 8994
  • 50 buttons without a name

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

  • 11 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 6 form fields without a label

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

  • 3 links without text

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

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 138 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

5 to fixGoogle 8586
  • Canonical points to another host

    Your canonical URL points to revicedenim.com, not vicedenim.com, so Google may credit that host instead.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 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.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 307 internal links, 35 external

    The homepage links to 307 pages on vicedenim.com and 35 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 139 characters

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 (2,202 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 12 pages without a meta description

    https://vicedenim.com/collections/low-rise-jeans, https://vicedenim.com/collections/ultra-low-rise, https://vicedenim.com/collections/mid-rise, https://vicedenim.com/collections/wide-leg, https://vicedenim.com/collections/flare and https://vicedenim.com/collections/bootcut and 6 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Best practices

4 to fixGoogle 7370

  • 54 small tap targets

    54 of 185 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

    3 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 ()”.

  • Browser-reported issues

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 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.

  • No risk reducer

    No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

  • About 592 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 592 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP ALL”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity and 3 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.

  • 32 cookies set on arrival

    32

    Opening the homepage sets 32 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.

  • 63 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 63 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 vicedenim.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
