Speed

13 to fix51
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.5 s · 900 KiB

    About 900 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Main-thread work: 5.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.3 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 (Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and others), adding 2.1 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 51

    51/100

    Your mobile performance score is 51. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 495 ms

    495 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 495 ms of main-thread work and 501 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

    450 ms · 58 KiB

    About 58 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    350 ms · 123 KiB

    8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (123 KiB).

  • Hotjar adds 331 ms

    331 ms

    Hotjar costs a phone 331 ms of main-thread work and 279 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.

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.

  • 17 long tasks on the main thread

    17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 252 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Shopify adds 204 ms

    204 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 204 ms of main-thread work and 380 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.

  • ZenDesk adds 178 ms

    178 ms

    ZenDesk costs a phone 178 ms of main-thread work and 395 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.

  • 1,705 HTML elements

    The page has 1,705 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 13 KiB

    13 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Font display

    150 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).

  • 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 CSS

    3 KiB

    3 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Server response: 8 ms

    8 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 8 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 10.6 MB in 275 requests

    10.6 MB

    Your homepage downloads 10.6 MB in 275 requests on a phone: media 7.1 MB (1), scripts 2.1 MB (92) and other files 906 KiB (144). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 3.0 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.00 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.00 g of CO₂e: 359.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • Images load when needed

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

  • 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 8790
  • 4 buttons without a name

    4 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • ARIA input fields must have an accessible name (2 elements)

    ARIA input fields must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 2 text elements with low contrast

    2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)

    Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark (1 element)

    Banner landmark should not be contained in another landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)

    Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 19 links without text

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 33 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 51 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: 51 passed and 8 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 10084
  • Title is long (72 characters)

    Your title is 72 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Gaitline | Premium walking footwear | Offisiell nettbutikk – Gaitline NO”.

  • No structured data

    No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 122 internal links, 8 external

    The homepage links to 122 pages on gaitline.no and 8 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 150 characters

    Your meta description is 150 characters: “For dagene du er mye på bena. Premium gåsko med patentert SGL-teknologi, utviklet med erfaring fra Olympiatoppen. Desig…”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://gaitline.no/.

  • 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://gaitline.no/sitemap.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.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (531 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://gaitline.no/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

4 to fix68
  • 1 page without a title

    https://gaitline.no/customer_authentication/redirect has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

  • 1 linked page hidden from search

    https://gaitline.no/customer_authentication/redirect is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

  • 8 pages without a meta description

    https://gaitline.no/customer_authentication/redirect, https://gaitline.no/collections/herre-nyheter, https://gaitline.no/collections/vintersko-herre, https://gaitline.no/collections/herre-tursko, https://gaitline.no/collections/herre-sommersko and https://gaitline.no/collections/dame-nyheter and 2 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://gaitline.no/customer_authentication/redirect has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 4 pages slow to respond

    https://gaitline.no/customer_authentication/redirect, https://gaitline.no/collections/nyheter, https://gaitline.no/collections/herre and https://gaitline.no/collections/herre-nyheter took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 51 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

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

    Every page we checked has its own title.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 10 small tap targets

    10 of 49 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. 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

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

  • About 613 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 613 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 7 short forms

    7 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Hotjar.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 8 trackers load before any consent

    8

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and Klaviyo and 3 mores (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.

  • 22 cookies set on arrival

    22

    Opening the homepage sets 22 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.

  • 36 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 36 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 gaitline.no, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

Your storefront loads 8 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
