The median mobile Lighthouse performance score was 61\/100, and only 2 stores (4%) reached 90. The median Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) was 8.5 seconds against Google&#8217;s 2.5-second &#8220;good&#8221; threshold, which only 3 stores met. 40% of home pages had no schema.org markup at all, and 8 stores (17%) had an llms.txt file. Estonian stores have the most to gain in mobile speed, structured data and content that AI search can read.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>This is our own <strong>Estonian online stores speed and SEO study<\/strong>. We checked the home pages of 47 Estonian online stores from two angles: how fast the page loads on a phone, and how well Google and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can read it. We report aggregate results only; we do not rate individual stores but show where the whole market has the biggest opportunities.<\/p>\n<h2>How was the study done?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sample.<\/strong> 47 well-known Estonian online stores in electronics, groceries, pharmacy, DIY, sports, books, toys, furniture and fashion (full list at the end).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Speed.<\/strong> Google Lighthouse 12.2 in mobile mode (simulated slower network and CPU), one run per home page, 14.11.2026, from Tallinn.<\/li>\n<li><strong>SEO and GEO.<\/strong> The home page HTML without running JavaScript \u2013 which is how many AI crawlers see a page. We checked the title, meta description, H1, hreflang, schema.org JSON-LD, Open Graph, robots.txt, sitemap and llms.txt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A single Lighthouse run varies by a few points, and lab results are not the same as real-user data (CrUX). That is why we look at medians and distributions rather than individual numbers.<\/p>\n<h2>How fast are Estonian online stores on mobile?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Metric (mobile, Lighthouse)<\/th>\n<th>Result across 47 stores<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Median performance score<\/td>\n<td>61 \/ 100 (mean 59)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Score 90\u2013100 (&#8220;good&#8221;)<\/td>\n<td>2 stores (4%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Score 50\u201389 (&#8220;needs improvement&#8221;)<\/td>\n<td>30 stores (64%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Score below 50 (&#8220;poor&#8221;)<\/td>\n<td>15 stores (32%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Median LCP<\/td>\n<td>8.5 s<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>LCP up to 2.5 s<\/td>\n<td>3 stores (6%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>LCP over 4 s<\/td>\n<td>40 stores (85%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Median First Contentful Paint (FCP)<\/td>\n<td>3.0 s<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Visual stability CLS up to 0.1<\/td>\n<td>34 stores (72%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Median home page weight<\/td>\n<td>2.9 MB<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Median server response (TTFB)<\/td>\n<td>0.24 s<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The key finding: servers respond fast (median TTFB under a quarter of a second), but the page itself is heavy on mobile. The slowness comes mainly from large images, banner sliders at the top of the home page, several tracking and marketing scripts and large JavaScript bundles. The best results in the sample were Prisma (99), Bauhof (90) and Euronics (86) \u2013 proof that a fast store is entirely possible in Estonia, even with a large catalogue.<\/p>\n<h2>Can Google and AI assistants understand Estonian online stores?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Check (home page HTML without JavaScript)<\/th>\n<th>Stores<\/th>\n<th>Share<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>No schema.org JSON-LD at all<\/td>\n<td>19<\/td>\n<td>40%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Organization markup present<\/td>\n<td>21<\/td>\n<td>45%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BreadcrumbList on the home page<\/td>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>No H1 heading in the HTML<\/td>\n<td>22<\/td>\n<td>47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>No meta description<\/td>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>21%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Meta description over 160 characters<\/td>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>21%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Canonical tag present<\/td>\n<td>32<\/td>\n<td>68%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Open Graph (share preview) present<\/td>\n<td>36<\/td>\n<td>77%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>hreflang tags present<\/td>\n<td>21<\/td>\n<td>45%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Russian version linked<\/td>\n<td>15<\/td>\n<td>32%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>English version linked<\/td>\n<td>14<\/td>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sitemap listed in robots.txt<\/td>\n<td>44<\/td>\n<td>94%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>llms.txt file present<\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>17%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>robots.txt blocks at least one AI crawler<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>6%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Three things stand out. First, almost half of the home pages have no H1 in the HTML before JavaScript runs. People will not notice, but many AI crawlers (for example GPTBot and ClaudeBot) do not run JavaScript and see an incomplete page. Second, 40% of stores do not say in machine-readable form who they are \u2013 there is no Organization, WebSite or other schema.org markup. Third, almost nobody blocks AI crawlers (only 3 stores), so the door to AI search is mostly open, but the pages are not prepared for it.<\/p>\n<h2>How multilingual are Estonian online stores?<\/h2>\n<p>People in Estonia search in Estonian, Russian and English, yet only a third of the stores linked a Russian version and fewer than half used hreflang tags. Without hreflang, Google may not show Russian-speaking searchers the right language version. We cover this Estonian specific in more detail in <a href=\"https:\/\/itsolutions.ee\/en\/blog\/seo-in-estonia\/\">SEO in Estonia in 2026<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What does this mean for an online store owner?<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Mobile speed is the biggest opportunity.<\/strong> When 85% of stores have an LCP over 4 seconds, a fast home page is a clear advantage. Start with images (WebP\/AVIF, correct sizes), the hero slider and third-party scripts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add schema.org markup.<\/strong> Organization and WebSite on the home page, Product and Offer on product pages, BreadcrumbList in categories. This tells Google and AI assistants what you sell and to whom.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check what a crawler sees without JavaScript.<\/strong> The title, H1, main text and product descriptions must be in the HTML even if scripts do not run.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do language versions properly.<\/strong> hreflang tags, separate URLs and translated metadata in Estonian, Russian and English.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add llms.txt.<\/strong> It is not an official standard, but it is a simple way to give AI assistants an overview of your categories, delivery and payment. Only 17% of Estonian stores have one today.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>How can IT Solutions Group help?<\/h2>\n<p>Since 2016 we have built WordPress and WooCommerce online stores and worked on speed optimisation, technical SEO and AI search visibility.
