dkactive.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 89
89/100Your mobile performance score is 89. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
2,857 HTML elements
The page has 2,857 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 58 ms
58 msShopify costs a phone 58 ms of main-thread work and 418 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 JavaScript
150 ms · 93 KiBAbout 93 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
140 ms · 42 KiBAbout 42 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 140 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and jQuery CDN and others), adding 588 KiB and 111 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 12 KiB6 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (12 KiB).
Improve image delivery
144 KiB6 images could be 144 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.4 s
A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 644 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 11 ms

Largest Contentful Paint: 3.6 s
3.6 sYour largest element takes 3.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
15 images without width and height

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.5 MB in 212 requests
2.5 MBYour homepage downloads 2.5 MB in 212 requests on a phone: other files 970 KiB (112), images 928 KiB (31) and scripts 467 KiB (57). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
13 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 260602_086A5299.jpg at 400 px wide, shown at 116 px. Resized copies would save about 13 KiB.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.71 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.71 g of CO₂e: 85.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
5 images without alt text
5 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
10 form fields without a label
10 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
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.
1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 5 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 123 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 risk reducer

SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:servers.mcsv.net include:_spf.google.com ~all”.
