I was emailed yesterday by a local web design company saying that the site I built from scratch with Blocs for my yoga studio works well on desktop, but could be improved on mobile (I’m in the process of rebuilding the whole site to address mobile issues). They sent a link to a mock up site they’d made for me which I presume they just used AI to ‘crawl’ my existing site and populate a template with the text and images; regardless of the fact that all my images are locked and there is a clear copyright declaration on the site, but I won’t press that point with them. I ran both mine and their sites through page speed insights and the results were, well, insightful:
Their mobile site had an average score of 63, while mine was 5 behind that.
Their desktop site scored 82, while mine was 10 points higher.
Best practices and accessibility were similar.
Even more interesting, the SEO for both their versions were a whopping 30 points below mine; both mine score 96.
I just found it interesting that although they would be improving my mobile score, their benchmark isn’t particularly high.
