10thplanetsm.com website review

14 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and website-files.com and others), adding 3.1 MB and 749 ms of main-thread time.

2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 850 ms.

13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (368 KiB).

About 364 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

website-files.com costs a phone 116 ms of main-thread work and 2.1 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 283 ms of main-thread work and 352 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 218 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

86 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

About 37 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

Polyfills for old browsers add 13 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

The page becomes fully interactive after 11.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

8 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 82 requests on a phone: images 2.0 MB (18), scripts 1.1 MB (25) and fonts 162 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 6a8744fae2a240c0554317e2_hero-team-split_1.jpg at 1,500 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 96 KiB.

2 images (301 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.95 g of CO₂e: 113.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

<html> element must have a lang attribute: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 10 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.

There are 6 <h1> headlines (“Start With 3 Free Classes (No Experience Needed)”, “San Mateo's Premier Jiu Jitsu Academy” and “Brazilian Jiu Jitsu”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

The homepage links to 21 pages on 10thplanetsm.com and 2 external pages.

There is no https://www.10thplanetsm.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.

https://www.10thplanetsm.com/faq, https://www.10thplanetsm.com/privacy-policy and https://www.10thplanetsm.com/terms-of-service are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

https://www.10thplanetsm.com/privacy-policy and https://www.10thplanetsm.com/terms-of-service have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://www.10thplanetsm.com/bjj and https://www.10thplanetsm.com/blog use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

We fetched 11 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

Social proof on the homepage: a star rating. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 473 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies, 2 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

Loading the homepage contacts 26 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
