Speed

8 to fix73
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    800 ms · 356 KiB

    About 356 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    700 ms · 131 KiB

    18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (131 KiB).

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, Klaviyo and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 1.1 MB and 543 ms of main-thread time.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    300 ms · 71 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 71 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.

  • Main-thread work: 2.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Klaviyo adds 97 ms

    97 ms

    Klaviyo costs a phone 97 ms of main-thread work and 314 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.

  • 4 long tasks on the main thread

    4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 93 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    32 KiB

    About 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Improve image delivery

    12 KiB

    2 images could be 12 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Minify JavaScript

    8 KiB

    8 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 38 ms

    38 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 38 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.7 s

    7.7 s

    Your largest element takes 7.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 11.1 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 4.1 s

    4.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 2 images without width and height

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

10 checks passed

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 490 ms

    490 ms

    Real visitors wait 490 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 18% faster for real visitors

    -18%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.4 s to 1.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.053

    0.053

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.053, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 41 ms

    41 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 41 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.6 MB in 271 requests

    2.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 271 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (74), other files 877 KiB (137) and images 512 KiB (46). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.74 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.74 g of CO₂e: 88.8 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

4 to fixGoogle 9795
  • 3 text elements with low contrast

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

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail 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.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 44 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 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: 50 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

3 to fixGoogle 9290
  • Meta description is long (197 characters)

    Your meta description is 197 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 4 links with vague text

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

  • 89 internal links, 11 external

    The homepage links to 89 pages on wildsmithskin.com and 11 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “INTRODUCING THE CORDOVAN COLLECTION”.

  • Title: 42 characters

    Your title is a healthy 42 characters: “Wildsmith Skin | High-Performance Skincare”.

  • Canonical URL set

  • 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://wildsmithskin.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://wildsmithskin.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

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.

  • 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 (915 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 67 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

    2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'sequence')”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    103 of 103 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: 6 testimonial or review blocks. 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 1,036 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,036 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” and “Shop All”.

  • 16 calls to action

    The homepage has 16 calls to action, for example “Shop”, “Shop All” and “Shop now”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

Privacy and tracking

  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 20 cookies set on arrival

    20

    Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 44 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 44 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.

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