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
4.7 s40 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.7 s.
Reduce unused CSS
1.4 s · 369 KiBAbout 369 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 6.4 s
A phone's processor spends 6.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
2.6 MB4 images could be 2.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Facebook and Google Maps and others), adding 2.0 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 1.3 MBAbout 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
YouTube adds 635 ms
635 msYouTube costs a phone 635 ms of main-thread work and 1,000 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
686 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (686 KiB).
Google Maps adds 263 ms
263 msGoogle Maps costs a phone 263 ms of main-thread work and 500 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.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 307 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Facebook adds 281 ms
281 msFacebook costs a phone 281 ms of main-thread work and 225 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 42 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 42 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Largest Contentful Paint: 4.5 s
4.5 sYour largest element takes 4.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “WHERE MOVEMENT POWERS LIFE”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.2 s).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 8.1 MB in 144 requests
8.1 MBYour homepage downloads 8.1 MB in 144 requests on a phone: images 4.2 MB (16), scripts 2.8 MB (61) and fonts 625 KiB (15). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (39 KiB) is 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 below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (39 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit
2.31 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.31 g of CO₂e: 277.1 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
6 text elements with low contrast
6 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
6 tap targets too small
6 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Links must have discernible text (1 element)
Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (13 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 13 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.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4, h2 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 27 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
71 internal links, 29 external
The homepage links to 71 pages on fitstop.com and 29 external pages.
8 checks passed
Meta description: 102 characters
Your meta description is 102 characters: “Join Fitstop's functional training revolution. Expert coaching, real results. Start with a FREE class!”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “WHERE MOVEMENT POWERS LIFE”.
Title: 40 characters
Your title is a healthy 40 characters: “Fitstop | The home of functional fitness”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://fitstop.com/us/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Article, ExerciseGym, ImageObject, Organization and Person.
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.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://fitstop.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)
Your Organization JSON-LD is missing sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.
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 (697 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 linked page hidden from search
/author/yews-admin is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.
2 pages share a title
/free-trial and /us/free-trial all use the title “Free Trial - Fitstop”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page without a meta description
/author/yews-admin has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
/free-trial and /us/free-trial use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
5 pages without an H1
/us/locations, /author/yews-admin, /free-trial, /locations and /us/free-trial have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
1 page slow to respond
/us/own-a-fitstop took over 3 s to send its HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 40 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
3 checks passed

Best practices
9 small tap targets
9 of 27 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
5 third-party cookies
5 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.
2 JavaScript errors while loading
2 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.
Browser-reported issues
Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
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.
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 454 words of copy
The homepage carries about 454 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
10 calls to action
The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Get Started”, “Learn More” and “LEARN MORE”.
1 short form
A short form (6 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Social proof on the page
Social proof on the homepage: 2 testimonial or review blocks, 1 customer or partner logo and 1 trust badge.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: HubSpot.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, HubSpot, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity and 1 more (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.
24 cookies set on arrival
24Opening the homepage sets 24 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.
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.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at fitstop.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
