Speed

5 to fix59
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.5 s

    14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.5 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.6 s · 280 KiB

    About 280 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 59

    59/100

    Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    550 ms · 142 KiB

    7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (142 KiB).

  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 114 KiB

    6 images could be 114 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and Adroll and others), adding 885 KiB and 402 ms of main-thread time.

  • 2 long tasks on the main thread

    2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 225 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • 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: 1.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 645 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 4 ms

    4 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix59
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 14.5 s

    14.5 s

    Your largest element takes 14.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 14.5 s

    14.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.5 s

    3.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 308 ms

    308 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 308 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 7 images without width and height

    7 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: 0.036

    0.036

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.036, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.1 MB in 167 requests

    2.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 167 requests on a phone: other files 734 KiB (93), scripts 727 KiB (42) and images 533 KiB (15). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 5 images below the first screen load straight away

    5 images further down the page (232 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.59 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.59 g of CO₂e: 70.3 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 are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

7 to fixGoogle 8590
  • 2 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 2 tap targets too small

    2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • <html> element must have a lang attribute (1 element)

    <html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • No page language

    The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10079
  • Title is short (22 characters)

    Your title is only 22 characters: “Wake & Brew Coffee Co.”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • Meta description is short (32 characters)

    Your meta description is only 32 characters: “All Adventure Begins With Coffee”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “Freshly Roasted Whole Bean Coffee”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • 48 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 48 pages on wakeandbrewcoffee.com and 4 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 (271 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

4 to fix60
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/whole-bean-coffee/products/white-eagle-costa-rica-arabica-whole-bean, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 6 pages without a meta description

    https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/shop-everything, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/whole-bean-coffee, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/pancakes, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/mugs, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/blogs/blog and https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/pages/contact have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/products/black-bear-kenyan-arabica-whole-bean, whose canonical is https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/products/black-bear-kenyan-arabica-whole-bean-coffee. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/products/black-bear-kenyan-arabica-whole-bean has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 5 pages with very little text

    https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/whole-bean-coffee, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/collections/pancakes, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/pages/join-the-adventure, https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/pages/quality and https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/pages/contact have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 1 page slow to respond

    https://wakeandbrewcoffee.com/products/black-bear-kenyan-arabica-whole-bean took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 17 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 14 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    12 of 14 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix71
  • 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.

  • Only about 230 words

    The homepage has only about 230 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

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

  • 13 calls to action

    The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Join The Adventure” and “Contact Us”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (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.

  • 7 cookies set on arrival

    7

    Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (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.

  • 14 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 14 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 wakeandbrewcoffee.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
