Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s15 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Main-thread work: 10.4 s
A phone's processor spends 10.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 22
22/100Your mobile performance score is 22. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
7,378 HTML elements
The page has 7,378 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Stamped.io and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 7.7 MB and 1.3 s of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 387 ms
387 msShopify costs a phone 387 ms of main-thread work and 6.8 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.
Improve image delivery
100 ms · 858 KiB23 images could be 858 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
563 KiBAbout 563 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 409 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Stamped.io adds 341 ms
341 msStamped.io costs a phone 341 ms of main-thread work and 152 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 321 ms
321 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 321 ms of main-thread work and 321 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
150 ms · 36 KiBAbout 36 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
95 KiB23 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (95 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
52 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 52 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 39.5 s
39.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 39.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 8.8 s
8.8 sYour largest element takes 8.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Total Blocking Time: 1.6 s
1.6 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.6 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.323
0.323The layout shifts by 0.323 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Speed Index: 6.1 s
6.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.1 s
3.1 sThe first text or image appears after 3.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
129 images without width and height
129 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 19% slower for real visitors
+19%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 114 ms to 137 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 10.2 MB in 340 requests
10.2 MBYour homepage downloads 10.2 MB in 340 requests on a phone: images 7.4 MB (127), scripts 1.5 MB (103) and other files 689 KiB (64). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
32 images far larger than shown
5.8 MB32 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example closeup-knights.jpg at 1,080 px wide, shown at 78 px. Resized copies would save about 5.8 MB.
36 images below the first screen load straight away
36 images further down the page (6.3 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
31 images in older formats
31 images (6.0 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.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
image_1_0cdcf870-eacf-46dc-ba12-3385b07bf645.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 2.9 g of CO₂ per visit
2.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.91 g of CO₂e: 348.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
963 images without alt text
963 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
11 tap targets too small
11 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).
SEO
Title is long (68 characters)
Your title is 68 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “CoolHockey | Officially Licensed NHL Hockey Jerseys – CoolHockey.com”.
Meta description is long (200 characters)
Your meta description is 200 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
290 internal links, 8 external
The homepage links to 290 pages on coolhockey.com and 8 external pages.

AI search readiness
4 checks passed

Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,784 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://coolhockey.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
5 pages without a meta description
https://coolhockey.com/collections/all, https://coolhockey.com/policies/shipping-policy, https://coolhockey.com/pages/frequently-asked-question, https://coolhockey.com/policies/refund-policy and https://coolhockey.com/collections/team-usa-2025-jerseys have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
11 pages without an H1
https://coolhockey.com/collections/all, https://coolhockey.com/collections/jersey-patches, https://coolhockey.com/collections/team-usa-2025-jerseys, https://coolhockey.com/collections/anaheim-ducks, https://coolhockey.com/collections/boston-bruins and https://coolhockey.com/collections/buffalo-sabres and 5 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

Thin social proof

No direct contact details

5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Ads (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.
13 cookies set on arrival
13Opening the homepage sets 13 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
