Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 349 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (349 KiB).
Main-thread work: 7.3 s
A phone's processor spends 7.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 670 KiBAbout 670 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Bold Commerce and Shopify and others), adding 2.1 MB and 876 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 61
61/100Your mobile performance score is 61. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
950 ms17 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 950 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 247 ms
247 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 247 ms of main-thread work and 342 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.
Bold Commerce adds 205 ms
205 msBold Commerce costs a phone 205 ms of main-thread work and 484 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 183 ms
183 msShopify costs a phone 183 ms of main-thread work and 699 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.
1,795 HTML elements
The page has 1,795 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 237 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 45 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 45 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
36 KiBAbout 36 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Improve image delivery
13 KiB1 image could be 13 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

SEO
