greatwolf.com website review

About 281 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.

Your mobile performance score is 52 (desktop: 73). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Quantum Metric and Cloudflare and others), adding 426 KiB and 690 ms of main-thread time.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 531 ms of main-thread work and 322 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.

Polyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 338 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (86 KiB).

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.

5 images could be 108 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

Your largest element takes 9.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The first text or image appears after 3.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

The page becomes fully interactive after 9.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

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

Real visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 466 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 1.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 47 requests on a phone: media 2.0 MB (1), scripts 815 KiB (21) and images 162 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 103.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 60 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

The skip-link target should exist and be focusable: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

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

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

Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500%: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

The homepage links to 54 pages on greatwolf.com and 6 external pages.

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

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

No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

greatwolf.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.

greatwolf.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.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

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

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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

There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

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

The homepage carries about 476 words of visible text.

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.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Taboola, The Trade Desk and Xandr (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.

Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 27 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
