Speed

10 to fix54
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.1 s · 673 KiB

    About 673 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    4.6 s · 997 KiB

    37 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (997 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.1 s

    9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    4.0 MB

    26 images could be 4.0 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Mobile performance score: 54

    54/100

    Your mobile performance score is 54. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.1 MB and 523 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    450 ms · 66 KiB

    About 66 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Font display

    500 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 500 ms).

  • Google CDN adds 314 ms

    314 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 314 ms of main-thread work and 742 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 long tasks on the main thread

    8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 134 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • First Contentful Paint: 8.1 s

    8.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 8.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 21.0 s

    21.0 s

    Your largest element takes 21.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 21.9 s

    21.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 21.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.9 s

    8.9 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 17 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 97 ms to 104 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

9 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: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 96 ms

    96 ms

    Real visitors wait 96 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.06

    0.06

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.06 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 593 ms

    593 ms

    Real visitors wait 593 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 14% faster for real visitors

    -14%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.7 s to 2.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 182 ms

    182 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 182 ms while loading. Good is under 200 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 fix35
  • Page weight: 7.0 MB in 85 requests

    7.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 7.0 MB in 85 requests on a phone: images 4.7 MB (35), scripts 1.6 MB (28) and other files 376 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 2 images over 500 KB

    2 images weigh 1.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 26 images in older formats

    26 images (4.6 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.

  • 1 image far larger than shown

    143 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example QT-Queenstown_Lake-King-1600x1300.jpg at 1,600 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 143 KiB.

  • About 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.00 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.00 g of CO₂e: 239.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images load when needed

    Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.

Accessibility

9 to fixGoogle 7488
  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (7 elements)

    Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Malformed lists

    Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.

  • 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.

  • 12 images without alt text

    12 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 9 links without text

    9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 59 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 9 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 8573
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is short (10 characters)

    Your title is only 10 characters: “Home - EVT”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • 110 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 110 pages on evt.com and 6 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.evt.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, ImageObject, WebPage and WebSite.

  • 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://www.evt.com/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • No Organization structured data

    There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.

  • 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.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (745 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    /entertainment, /entertainment/bars-restaurants, /entertainment/cinemas, /entertainment/outdoor-cinemas, /entertainment/theatre and /entertainment/wellness and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 39 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 31 small tap targets

    31 of 36 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

100
  • 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.

8 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (evt.com).

  • Valid certificate (89 days left)

    The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for evt.com and is valid for another 89 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.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://evt.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2

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

  • All 44 links work

    All 44 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 4 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    evt.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.

  • DNSSEC is off

    evt.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 32 years old

    32 years

    evt.com was registered in Apr 1994 through CSC Corporate Domains, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Apr 2027

    evt.com is registered until Apr 2027.

Content and conversion

1 to fix90
  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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 707 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 707 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: “Our People – Join The Team” and “Contact”.

  • 13 calls to action

    The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Our People – Join The Team”, “Contact” and “EVT Shop”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks and 1 customer or partner logo.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Email authentication

85
  • Email authentication score: 85/100

    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: quarantine

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

  • 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:sendgrid.net include:ivvy.net include:spf.braintreegateway.com includ…”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “k2” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads 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.

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    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.

  • 10 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
