Speed
Improve image delivery
1.9 s · 654 KiB10 images could be 654 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 330 KiBAbout 330 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (rebuyengine.com, Klaviyo and Yotpo and others), adding 1.2 MB and 321 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
300 ms · 48 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 48 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 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
Main-thread work: 2.5 s
A phone's processor spends 2.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
rebuyengine.com adds 158 ms
158 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 158 ms of main-thread work and 716 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.
1,777 HTML elements
The page has 1,777 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Klaviyo adds 106 ms
106 msKlaviyo costs a phone 106 ms of main-thread work and 311 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 22 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (22 KiB).
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 145 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
60 ms · 31 KiBAbout 31 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 60 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 14.9 s
14.9 sYour largest element takes 14.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 15.5 s
15.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 15.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 10.4 s
10.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 10.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s
2.4 sThe first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
6 images without width and height
6 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.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 141 ms
141 msScripts block the page for only 141 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 278 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 278 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (82), images 914 KiB (41) and other files 874 KiB (127). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.94 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.94 g of CO₂e: 112.4 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
Input buttons must have discernible text (1 element)
Input buttons must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
5 tap targets too small
5 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (10 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
15 links without text
15 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h6, h3 → h6 and h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 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
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
51 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 51 pages on wunderbrow.ca and 9 external pages.
6 checks passed

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.
Some text only appears after JavaScript runs
59%The HTML your server sends has 228 of the 389 words a browser shows. AI crawlers don't run JavaScript, so they miss the rest.
2 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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.wunderbrow.ca/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
1 linked page is broken
Your homepage links to https://www.wunderbrow.ca/products/wunderlift, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.
1 page without a title
https://www.wunderbrow.ca/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.
1 linked page hidden from search
https://www.wunderbrow.ca/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
1 page without a meta description
https://www.wunderbrow.ca/customer_authentication/redirect has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://www.wunderbrow.ca/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page with very little text
https://www.wunderbrow.ca/pages/special-offers has 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://www.wunderbrow.ca/products/frame-set-brow-gel took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked

Content and conversion
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 analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 389 words of copy
The homepage carries about 389 words of visible text.
