Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 1.0 MBAbout 1.0 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
audioeye-services.com adds 1.5 s
1.5 saudioeye-services.com costs a phone 1.5 s of main-thread work and 302 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.3 s
1.3 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.3 s of main-thread work and 828 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.
Mobile performance score: 27
27/100Your mobile performance score is 27. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.8 s
A phone's processor spends 9.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 4.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
700 ms · 4.4 MB52 images could be 4.4 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 700 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (audioeye-services.com, Google Tag Manager and automizely.com and others), adding 6.1 MB and 3.8 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
800 ms · 308 KiB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (308 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
750 ms12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Shopify adds 92 ms
92 msShopify costs a phone 92 ms of main-thread work and 4.5 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.
automizely.com adds 346 ms
346 msautomizely.com costs a phone 346 ms of main-thread work and 200 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.
nofraud.com adds 317 ms
317 msnofraud.com costs a phone 317 ms of main-thread work and 8 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 302 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
2,791 HTML elements
The page has 2,791 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
34 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 34 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
26 KiBAbout 26 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Duplicated JavaScript
11 KiB11 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: 8.0 MB in 269 requests
8.0 MBYour homepage downloads 8.0 MB in 269 requests on a phone: images 5.3 MB (61), scripts 1.9 MB (81) and other files 637 KiB (77). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
WF_HMPG_Sweat_Fall.png 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).
4 images below the first screen load straight away
4 images further down the page (110 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit
2.27 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.27 g of CO₂e: 272.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed

Accessibility
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.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (2 elements)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
18 links without text
18 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 23 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
55 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 55 passed and 3 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO

One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
109 internal links, 8 external
The homepage links to 109 pages on wildfox.com and 8 external pages.
6 checks passed

4 checks passed

Other pages

1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.wildfox.com/collections/fall-25-collection, whose canonical is https://www.wildfox.com/collections/fall-clothing.

Content and conversion

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 wildfox.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
