Speed

12 to fix55
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.0 s · 1.2 MB

    About 1.2 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.6 s · 567 KiB

    30 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (567 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Main-thread work: 5.3 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 505 KiB

    15 images could be 505 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Other Google APIs/SDKs and Clarity and others), adding 2.0 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 55

    55/100

    Your mobile performance score is 55. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 81 KiB

    About 81 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 285 ms

    285 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 285 ms of main-thread work and 772 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.

  • 2,502 HTML elements

    The page has 2,502 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Klaviyo adds 141 ms

    141 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 141 ms of main-thread work and 331 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.

  • azurefd.net adds 53 ms

    53 ms

    azurefd.net costs a phone 53 ms of main-thread work and 321 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.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 39 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 39 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 171 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    51 KiB

    51 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.

  • Minify CSS

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 24 ms

    24 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 24 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 25.0 s

    25.0 s

  • Speed Index: 18.3 s

    18.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 18.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 26.3 s

    26.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 26.3 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.

  • Tap response (INP) got 24% slower for real visitors

    +24%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 1 image without width and height

    1 image have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

9 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 143 ms

  • Real-user TTFB: 713 ms

    713 ms

  • Largest content (LCP) got 19% faster for real visitors

    -19%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 194 ms

    194 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 194 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix64
  • Page weight: 6.4 MB in 508 requests

    6.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.4 MB in 508 requests on a phone: scripts 2.8 MB (156), other files 1.6 MB (281) and images 1.4 MB (37). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    TCF07410.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (96 KiB) is 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 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.82 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.82 g of CO₂e: 217.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • 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 9390
  • Links must have discernible text (5 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 4 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 1 image without alt text

    1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (9 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 9 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 11 form fields without a label

    11 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

1 checks passed
  • 45 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9291
  • Structured data has 3 problems

    Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 3 problems, for example “Organization: logo is not an absolute URL ("//cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0246/4595/9742/files/W.png?…”.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

  • 191 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 191 pages on westcoastsaw.com and 8 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 160 characters

    Your meta description is 160 characters: “Discover high-quality chainsaw parts, accessories, and more at Westcoast Saw. Designed for professionals and enthusiast…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Westcoast Saw”.

  • Title: 53 characters

    Your title is a healthy 53 characters: “Top Rated Chainsaw Mods & Accessories | Westcoast Saw”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.westcoastsaw.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://www.westcoastsaw.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Organization data: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,736 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.westcoastsaw.com/apps/giftregistry/wishlist has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://www.westcoastsaw.com/apps/giftregistry/wishlist, https://www.westcoastsaw.com/products/661-bark-box and https://www.westcoastsaw.com/products/3-point-shorty-felling-dogs have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 70 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 6 JavaScript errors while loading

    6 errors were 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

    17 of 18 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix75
  • 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 phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • 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 294 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 294 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP ALL PRODUCTS”.

  • 7 calls to action

    The homepage has 7 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Shop All Products” and “SHOP ALL”.

  • 6 short forms

    6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and Hotjar.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 3 mores (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.

  • 27 cookies set on arrival

    27

    Opening the homepage sets 27 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 43 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 43 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 westcoastsaw.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
