Every report published here is in this comparison, so it is a reference population of pages tested from one server - not a benchmark of the whole web.

What these numbers mean

The first byte arrived in 409 ms. That is workable, and the cheapest win left is caching or a warmer connection.
The page transfers 312.9 KB over 26 request(s). Images files are 69% of it, so resize and recompress the largest images before anything else.
The HTML itself arrives gzip-compressed.
It runs over HTTP/3, so the assets share a connection instead of opening one each.
69% of the weight comes from other hosts (analytics, fonts, embeds), which also means their slow day becomes your slow day.

Fix first: Server response time (TTFB) - Cut server think time: page cache, query indexes, fewer synchronous calls to third parties inside the request. Connection setup is distance, so a nearer region or a CDN edge helps instead.

Read on one shared server, not a visitor's phone: use it to compare pages against each other, not as a promise about every connection. We fix what these tests find.

No screenshot for this report.

The headless browser did not capture this page when the test ran, so only the server measurements are shown.

Top issues

Server response time (TTFB)

high impact

The first byte arrived after 409 ms. Of that, 302 ms was the server thinking and 107 ms was connection setup. A first byte under 400 ms is what a visitor feels as instant.

Fix: Cut server think time: page cache, query indexes, fewer synchronous calls to third parties inside the request. Connection setup is distance, so a nearer region or a CDN edge helps instead.

Avoid extra redirects

medium impact

1 redirect hop(s) before the page load started, each one a full round trip before the first byte.

Fix: Link to the canonical URL (and make sure http, the apex domain and www all point at it) so no visitor pays a redirect first.

Strict-Transport-Security

low impact

HSTS is not set, so the first visit on a hostile network can still be downgraded to HTTP.

Fix: Send Strict-Transport-Security with a max-age of at least six months. Add includeSubDomains once every subdomain is HTTPS.
