ice20.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.6 s · 518 KiBAbout 518 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.6 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 57
57/100Your mobile performance score is 57. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (YouTube, Shopify and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.1 MB and 586 ms of main-thread time.
YouTube adds 548 ms
548 msYouTube costs a phone 548 ms of main-thread work and 1,016 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
440 ms · 124 KiBAbout 124 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 440 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
300 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 300 ms.
Improve image delivery
150 KiB4 images could be 150 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 124 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
5 KiB4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (5 KiB).
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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 2.0 s
A phone's processor spends 2.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.0 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.1 s
12.1 sYour largest element takes 12.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
First Contentful Paint: 6.2 s
6.2 sThe first text or image appears after 6.2 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Time to Interactive: 13.5 s
13.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 13.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.1 s
7.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 116 ms
116 msScripts block the page for only 116 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.6 MB in 155 requests
2.6 MBYour homepage downloads 2.6 MB in 155 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (41), other files 677 KiB (77) and images 528 KiB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
BXchongxICE20-Cover.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.73 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.73 g of CO₂e: 88.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
19 tap targets too small
19 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
12 text elements with low contrast
12 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate 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.
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.
12 links without text
12 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 37 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
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

No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

Your <h1> is empty.
75 internal links, 2 external
The homepage links to 75 pages on ice20.com and 2 external pages.

AI search readiness
No llms.txt

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.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (544 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
/collections/knee and /collections/shoulder have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
3 pages share a meta description
/products/double-ankle, /products/elbow-small-knee and /products/back-hip use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

Thin social proof

No analytics detected
