Performance advice (76)

TitleAdviceScore
Inline CSS for faster first render (inlineCss)The page has both inline CSS and CSS requests even though it uses a HTTP/2-ish connection. If you have many users on slow connections, it can be better to only inline the CSS. Run your own tests and check the waterfall graph to see what happens.95
Description: In the early days of the Internet, inlining CSS was one of the ugliest things you can do. That has changed if you want your page to start rendering fast for your user. Always inline the critical CSS when you use HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 (avoid doing CSS requests that block rendering) and lazy load and cache the rest of the CSS. It is a little more complicated when using HTTP/2. Does your server support HTTP push? Then maybe that can help. Do you have a lot of users on a slow connection and are serving large chunks of HTML? Then it could be better to use the inline technique, becasue some servers always prioritize HTML content over CSS so the user needs to download the HTML first, before the CSS is downloaded.
Avoid CPU Long Tasks (longTasks)The page has 3 CPU long tasks with the total of 317 ms. However the CPU Long Task is depending on the computer/phones actual CPU speed, so you should measure this on the same type of the device that your user is using. Use Geckoprofiler for Firefox or Chromes tracelog to debug your Long Task.40
Description: Long CPU tasks locks the thread. To the user this is commonly visible as a "locked up" page where the browser is unable to respond to user input; this is a major source of bad user experience on the web today. However the CPU Long Task is depending on the computer/phones actual CPU speed, so you should measure this on the same type of the device that your user is using.
Offenders:

Avoid extra requests by setting cache headers (cacheHeaders)The page has 21 requests that are missing a cache time. Configure a cache time so the browser doesn't need to download them every time. It will save 88.2 kB the next access.0
Description: The easiest way to make your page fast is to avoid doing requests to the server. Setting a cache header on your server response will tell the browser that it doesn't need to download the asset again during the configured cache time! Always try to set a cache time if the content doesn't change for every request.
Offenders:
Long cache headers is good (cacheHeadersLong)The page has 3 requests that have a shorter cache time than 30 days (but still a cache time).97
Description: Setting a cache header is good. Setting a long cache header (at least 30 days) is even better beacause then it will stay long in the browser cache. But what do you do if that asset change? Rename it and the browser will pick up the new version.
Offenders:
Total JavaScript size shouldn't be too big (javascriptSize)The total JavaScript transfer size is 208 kB and the uncompressed size is 746.7 kB. This is quite large. 0
Description: A lot of JavaScript often means you are downloading more than you need. How complex is the page and what can the user do on the page? Do you use multiple JavaScript frameworks?
Don't use private headers on static content (privateAssets)The page has 2 requests with private headers. The main page has a private header. It could be right in some cases where the user can be logged in and served specific content. But if your asset is static it should never be private. Make sure that the assets really should be private and only used by one user. Otherwise, make it cacheable for everyone.90
Description: If you set private headers on content, that means that the content are specific for that user. Static content should be able to be cached and used by everyone. Avoid setting the cache header to private.

TitleAdviceScore
Cumulative Layout Shift (layoutShift)You have elements that shift. You should manually check the filmstrip or video and check if it will affect the user.96
Description: Cumulative Layout Shift measures the sum total of all individual layout shift scores for every unexpected layout shift that occurs during the entire lifespan of the page. A layout shift occurs any time a visible element changes its position from one rendered frame to the next.
Offenders:
  • DIV mw-body-content mw-content-ltr
  • #text undefined
Meta description (metaDescription)The page is missing a meta description.0
Description: Use a page description to make the page more relevant to search engines.
Avoid Unnecessary Headers (unnecessaryHeaders)There are 3 responses that sets a p3p header. There are 9 responses that sets both a max-age and expires header. There are 35 responses that sets a server header. 53
Description: Do not send headers that you don't need. We look for p3p, cache-control and max-age, pragma, server and x-frame-options headers. Have a look at Andrew Betts - Headers for Hackers talk as a guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k92ZbrY815c or read https://www.fastly.com/blog/headers-we-dont-want.

Privacy advice (90)

TitleAdviceScore
Use a good Content-Security-Policy header to make sure you you avoid Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. (contentSecurityPolicyHeader)Set a Content-Security-Policy header to make sure you are not open for Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. You can start with setting a Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only header, that will only report the violation, not stop the download.0
Description: Content Security Policy is delivered via a HTTP response header, and defines approved sources of content that the browser may load. It can be an effective countermeasure to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attacks and is also widely supported and usually easily deployed. https://scotthelme.co.uk/content-security-policy-an-introduction/.
Offenders:
Set a referrer-policy header to make sure you do not leak user information. (referrerPolicyHeader)Set a referrer-policy header to make sure you do not leak user information.0
Description: Referrer Policy is a new header that allows a site to control how much information the browser includes with navigations away from a document and should be set by all sites. https://scotthelme.co.uk/a-new-security-header-referrer-policy/.

LCP

The largest contentful paint is highlighted in the image. If no element is highlighted the element was removed before the screenshot or the LCP API couldn't find the element.

Detected Cumulative Layout Shift

0.04495 cumulative layout shift collected from the Cumulative Layout Shift API.

These HTML elements contribute most to the Cumulative Layout Shifts of the page. The higher score, the more layout shift.

Layout shift

The elements that have shifted place is highlighted in the image (that have a higher value than 0.01). If the element shifted outside of the viewport, you will not see it there. It can be hard to understand what content that has shifted, if that's the case, checkout the video or the filmstrip of the run.
