Speed

14 to fix30
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.9 s · 5.9 MB

    60 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5.9 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    7.6 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 7.6 s.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.0 s · 772 KiB

    About 772 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Signyfyd adds 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Signyfyd costs a phone 1.2 s of main-thread work and 259 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

  • 11,049 HTML elements

    The page has 11,049 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Mobile performance score: 30

    30/100

    Your mobile performance score is 30 (desktop: 35). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Signyfyd, Google Tag Manager and Facebook and others), adding 2.1 MB and 2.5 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    1.3 MB

    15 images could be 1.3 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 792 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 701 ms

    701 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 701 ms of main-thread work and 847 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    600 ms · 87 KiB

    About 87 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    500 ms · 107 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 107 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 500 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    450 ms · 92 KiB

    92 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Minify CSS

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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.

  • Forced reflow

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

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • First Contentful Paint: 10.3 s

    10.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 10.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 70.6 s

    70.6 s

    Your largest element takes 70.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Speed Index: 39.8 s

    39.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 39.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 81.5 s

    81.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 81.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.4 s

    1.4 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.4 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 51% slower for real visitors

    +51%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 119 ms to 180 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 187 ms

    187 ms

    Real visitors wait 187 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.01

    0.01

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.01 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.0 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 705 ms

    705 ms

    Real visitors wait 705 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 22.4 MB in 205 requests

    22.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 22.4 MB in 205 requests on a phone: images 18.5 MB (82), scripts 2.4 MB (68) and fonts 1.2 MB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 9 images over 500 KB

    9 images weigh 17.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 14 images in older formats

    14 images (18.0 MB) 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.

  • 4 images below the first screen load straight away

    4 images further down the page (8.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 6.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    6.34 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 6.34 g of CO₂e: 761.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

8 to fixGoogle 8891
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    3 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (2 elements)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings should not be empty (2 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored (2 elements)

    Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 111 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 8 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9288
  • 6 H1 headlines

    There are 6 <h1> headlines (“”, “” and “Level up your shot Level up your shot”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • Meta description is long (232 characters)

    Your meta description is 232 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 1 link with vague text

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.

  • 250 internal links, 13 external

    The homepage links to 250 pages on ccmhockey.com and 13 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Title: 37 characters

    Your title is a healthy 37 characters: “CCM Hockey - Official Site - Shop Now”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://us.ccmhockey.com/homepage.html.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Corporation.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://us.ccmhockey.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no /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.

3 checks passed
  • AI answer engines may read the site

    Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles) and contact details; description would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,700 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

5 to fix57
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to /goalie.html, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 2 pages share a title

    /Skates-2 and /Skates/Category/Player all use the title “Player & Goalie Ice Hockey Skates - CCM Hockey”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 8 pages share a meta description

    /Skates-2 and /Skates/Category/Player use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example /Skates/Category/Player, whose canonical is /Skates-2. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    /Skates-2 and /Skates/Category/Player have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 158 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Every page has a meta description

    All 13 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 13 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9274
  • 10 broken images

    10 images failed to load on a phone, for example https://us.ccmhockey.com/homepage.html.

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Unexpected end of JSON input JSON.parse (<anonymous>)”.

  • No HTML doctype

    The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    43 of 45 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

3 to fix78
  • 1 broken link to your own pages

    1 link from your homepage to your own site is broken, for example https://us.ccmhockey.com/goalie.html (404).

  • 4 broken external links

    4 links to other sites are dead, for example https://sondage-survey.ccmhockey.com/m3s/AppForm.aspx?lang=12 (404).

  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • 3 redirects before the homepage

    Opening https://ccmhockey.com goes through 3 redirects before the homepage loads.

  • 2 links through redirect chains

    2 links go through two or more redirects, for example https://pay.google.com/.

  • 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.

  • No security.txt

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

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (us.ccmhockey.com).

  • Valid certificate (48 days left)

    The certificate from Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA OV R36 verifies for ccmhockey.com and is valid for another 48 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://ccmhockey.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

    The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.

Domain and trust

  • DNSSEC is off

    ccmhockey.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.

3 checks passed
  • Domain is 28 years old

    28 years

    ccmhockey.com was registered in May 1998 through easyDNS Technologies Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Certificate issuers are restricted

    CAA records allow only globalsign.com and sectigo.com to issue certificates for ccmhockey.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.

  • Registered until May 2027

    ccmhockey.com is registered until May 2027.

Content and conversion

4 to fix69
  • 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.

  • No risk reducer

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

  • About 335 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 335 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW”.

  • 36 calls to action

    The homepage has 36 calls to action, for example “Shop all”, “Learn More” and “shop now”.

  • 3 short forms

    3 short forms (2 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel and Cloudflare Web Analytics.

Email authentication

100
  • Email authentication score: 100/100

    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.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: reject

    DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 ip4:209.5.106.132 ip4:209.5.106.133 ip4:198.135.116.5 ip4:198.135.117.5 ip4:198.135.116.20 ip4:198.135.116.21 ip…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector2” and “k1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Cookiebot) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 20 cookies set on arrival

    20

    Opening the homepage sets 20 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 34 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 34 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.
