Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
3,106 HTML elements
The page has 3,106 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and ContentSquare and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.1 s 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 641 KiBAbout 641 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.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 351 KiB7 images could be 351 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 151 KiBAbout 151 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 369 ms
369 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 369 ms of main-thread work and 508 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 340 ms
340 msShopify costs a phone 340 ms of main-thread work and 673 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.
Main-thread work: 4.0 s
A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
366 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (366 KiB).
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 154 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
38 KiB38 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Duplicated JavaScript
9 KiB9 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.9 MB in 475 requests
6.9 MBYour homepage downloads 6.9 MB in 475 requests on a phone: images 2.9 MB (61), scripts 1.7 MB (98) and other files 1.6 MB (262). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
8 images below the first screen load straight away
8 images further down the page (640 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
51 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Tropez_Navy-Blue-Canvas_Women_Handbag_02.jpg at 389 px wide, shown at 30 px. Resized copies would save about 51 KiB.
2 images in older formats
2 images (191 KiB) are 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 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.96 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.96 g of CO₂e: 235.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (9 elements)
Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.
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.
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
22 links without text
22 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 46 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Other pages

/pages/shop-by-heel is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages without a meta description
/policies/shipping-policy and /collections/all have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Valid certificate (44 days left)

viscata.com is registered until Dec 2026. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.

2 checks passed
Domain is 15 years old
15 yearsviscata.com was registered in Dec 2010 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only globalsign.com, letsencrypt.org, pki.goog and ssl.com to issue certificates for viscata.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Content and conversion
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

About 966 words of copy
The homepage carries about 966 words of visible text.
Urgency cues

Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be viscata.com is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.
SPF does not block other senders (?all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 include:mail.zendesk.com ?all”.
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
