    Breadcrumbslow

    Home page – breadcrumbs not needed.

Performance 42%

Speed signals from the HTML and server. Real-user Core Web Vitals load below.

  • !

    Server response (TTFB)high

    1120 ms until the first response from our checker, including connection setup (Google rates TTFB good under 0.8 s, poor over 1.8 s).

    Fix: Use page caching or a CDN (e.g. Cloudflare) so HTML is served from the edge.

  • !

    HTML sizemedium

    356 kB of HTML.

    Fix: Remove inline bloat, base64 images and unused markup.

  • i

    Compressionmedium

    Couldn't be measured from our server (our fetch decodes compressed pages before we see them). Check in your browser's developer tools that HTML is sent with br or gzip.

  • !

    Render-blocking resourceshigh

    0 blocking script(s) and 3 stylesheet(s) in <head>.

    Fix: Add defer to scripts, inline critical CSS and load the rest asynchronously.

  • !

    Scripts & third partiesmedium

    16 script tag(s); files loaded from 3 other domain(s): edge-platform.sitecorecloud.io, cdn-ukwest.onetrust.com, edge.sitecorecloud.io.

    Fix: Remove unused tracking and widget scripts; every third party adds connection time.

  • ✗

    Imagesmedium

    57 image(s).

    20 without width/height – can cause layout shift (CLS).

    54 image(s) after the first three aren't lazy-loaded.

    14 use WebP/AVIF or responsive srcset.

    Fix: Give every image width and height, lazy-load images below the fold (but not the main image) and serve WebP/AVIF.

  • !

    Cachinglow

    Cache-Control: public, max-age=0, must-revalidate

    Fix: Set Cache-Control so browsers and CDNs can reuse the page.

  • i

    HTTP/3low

    Couldn't be confirmed from our server – the alt-svc header that advertises HTTP/3 isn't always visible to it. Your site is on Cloudflare, which offers HTTP/3 under Network settings.
