Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.5 s · 613 KiBAbout 613 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Clarity and others), adding 2.0 MB and 883 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54 (desktop: 60). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
770 ms · 188 KiBAbout 188 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 770 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
600 ms · 114 KiB114 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 103 KiB4 images could be 103 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 463 ms
463 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 463 ms of main-thread work and 681 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.
2,608 HTML elements
The page has 2,608 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 2.6 s
A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Klaviyo adds 150 ms
150 msKlaviyo costs a phone 150 ms of main-thread work and 565 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.
Shopify adds 62 ms
62 msShopify costs a phone 62 ms of main-thread work and 568 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
200 ms · 69 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (69 KiB).
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 188 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 31 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.4 MB in 291 requests
4.4 MBYour homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 291 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (114), images 1.4 MB (46) and other files 843 KiB (112). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
3 images far larger than shown
32 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example banner_footer_ski_1200X1200_2.jpg at 1,200 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 32 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (148 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.23 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.23 g of CO₂e: 148.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (1 element)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
3 images without alt text
3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 6 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

49 of 61 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
2 redirects before the homepage
Opening https://briko.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (briko.com).
Valid certificate (75 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for briko.com and is valid for another 75 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https
http://briko.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
All 47 links work
All 47 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 7 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 76 days
briko.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
DNSSEC is off
briko.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.
2 checks passed
Domain is 28 years old
28 yearsbriko.com was registered in Jan 1998 through Register SPA. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only globalsign.com, letsencrypt.org, ssl.com and pki.goog to issue certificates for briko.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
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.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
About 624 words of copy
The homepage carries about 624 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “15% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER SIGN UP NOW” and “SHOP HELMETS”.
23 calls to action
The homepage has 23 calls to action, for example “Contact us”, “Send request” and “Track your order”.
3 short forms
3 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.
Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be briko.com is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 mx include:spf.protection.outlook.com ip4:194.153.131.147 ip4:194.153.131.153 ip4:194.153.131.154 ip4:194.153.13…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “s1” and “s2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Microsoft Ads and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (iubenda) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
