Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Improve image delivery
4.5 s · 904 KiB5 images could be 904 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 72
72/100Your mobile performance score is 72. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (getshogun.com, shgcdn3.com and Shopify and others), adding 1.9 MB and 196 ms of main-thread time.
shgcdn.com adds 0 ms
0 msshgcdn.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.8 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.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 39 KiBAbout 39 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.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 53 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
33 KiB3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (33 KiB).
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: 1.1 s
A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 466 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.3 s
12.3 sYour largest element takes 12.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 12.3 s
12.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.3 s. Good is under 3.8 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.
4 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.088
0.088The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.088, good is under 0.1).
First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s
1.7 sThe first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Speed Index: 2.3 s
2.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 2.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
1 image over 500 KB
lighter weighs 520 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
5 images far larger than shown
764 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example lighter at 3,000 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 764 KiB.
Page weight: 2.7 MB in 100 requests
2.7 MBYour homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 100 requests on a phone: images 1.8 MB (13), other files 604 KiB (50) and scripts 187 KiB (16). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.77 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.77 g of CO₂e: 92.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 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.
Accessibility
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 21 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 1 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
3 H1 headlines
There are 3 <h1> headlines (“”, “Something to enjoy.” and “Something to enjoy.”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
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.
18 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 18 pages on vtechboats.com and 0 external pages.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

3 checks passed

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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 322 words of copy
The homepage carries about 322 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
