Speed
Signyfyd adds 1.8 s
1.8 sSignyfyd costs a phone 1.8 s of main-thread work and 281 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 13.6 s
A phone's processor spends 13.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 7.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 36
36/100Your mobile performance score is 36. 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 (Signyfyd, Google Tag Manager and YouTube and others), adding 3.3 MB and 4.9 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 1.6 MBAbout 1.6 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 914 ms
914 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 914 ms of main-thread work and 665 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.
YouTube adds 672 ms
672 msYouTube costs a phone 672 ms of main-thread work and 1,021 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 772 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
700 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
100 ms · 417 KiB21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (417 KiB).
VWO adds 448 ms
448 msVWO costs a phone 448 ms of main-thread work and 206 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 416 ms
416 msBold Commerce costs a phone 416 ms of main-thread work and 485 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.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 146 KiBAbout 146 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.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
Improve image delivery
77 KiB2 images could be 77 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
76 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 76 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify JavaScript
19 KiB19 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.
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: 5.4 MB in 284 requests
5.4 MBYour homepage downloads 5.4 MB in 284 requests on a phone: scripts 3.8 MB (121), other files 871 KiB (111) and images 325 KiB (30). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.54 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.54 g of CO₂e: 184.7 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
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.
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 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 2 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Meta description is long (309 characters)
Your meta description is 309 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (untyped) but with 1 problem, for example “ld+json block 1 is not valid JSON (Unexpected end of JSON input)”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
149 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 149 pages on wagyushop.com and 10 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 53 characters
Your title is a healthy 53 characters: “Buy Wagyu Beef Online | The Wagyu Shop™ Official Site”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://wagyushop.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://wagyushop.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
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 (704 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://wagyushop.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://wagyushop.com/collections/american-wagyu-steaks, https://wagyushop.com/collections/grill-smoke and https://wagyushop.com/collections/roasts have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Best practices
5 small tap targets
5 of 13 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
5 third-party cookies
5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
1 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.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 282 words of copy
The homepage carries about 282 words of visible text.

30 cookies set on arrival
30Opening the homepage sets 30 cookies, 3 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

47 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 47 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 wagyushop.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
