bisoninc.com website review

Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and Adobe Tag Manager and others), adding 1.4 MB and 645 ms of main-thread time.

9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 410 ms of main-thread work and 780 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.

About 470 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

6 images could be 415 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

Shopify costs a phone 109 ms of main-thread work and 486 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.

The page has 1,567 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 163 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

12 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (48 KiB).

About 22 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

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.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

The page becomes fully interactive after 39.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 10.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 4.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Your largest element takes 4.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Since 1985, athletic directors, coaches, facility administr…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.6 s).

Real visitors wait 918 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 323 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 82 ms to 93 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 12.8 MB in 682 requests on a phone: images 9.8 MB (293), scripts 1.4 MB (124) and other files 1.2 MB (222). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

2 images (152 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 3.64 g of CO₂e: 436.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

15 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

Your <h1> is empty.

The homepage links to 196 pages on bisoninc.com and 26 external pages.

/collections/badminton, /collections/baseball-and-softball, /collections/field-hockey, /collections/football, /collections/futsal and /collections/basketball and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 80 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bisoninc.com/.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

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

Large scripts ship without source maps.

HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.

1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bison-Inc/185599798119510.

No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

bisoninc.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

bisoninc.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

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 958 words of visible text.

Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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 (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 28 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
