Speed

7 to fix75
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.9 s · 1.6 MB

    26 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.6 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.0 s · 368 KiB

    About 368 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    150 ms · 966 KiB

    20 images could be 966 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 75

    75/100

    Your mobile performance score is 75 (desktop: 44). 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 (Google Tag Manager, cdn-cookieyes.com and Sentry and others), adding 1.6 MB and 141 ms of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 133 ms

    133 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 133 ms of main-thread work and 318 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.

  • jackboxgames.com adds 0 ms

    0 ms

    jackboxgames.com costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 MB 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

    150 ms · 16 KiB

    About 16 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

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

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 103 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    9 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 426 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

Core Web Vitals

3 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.6 s

    7.6 s

    Your largest element takes 7.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Advert”.

  • Time to Interactive: 9.7 s

    9.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 9.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • 21 images without width and height

    21 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 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 106 ms to 112 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +2%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-03, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.3 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

10 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: 1.3 s

    1.3 s

    Real visitors wait 1.3 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 112 ms

    112 ms

    Real visitors wait 112 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.08

    0.08

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.08 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 0.7 s

    0.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 0.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 419 ms

    419 ms

    Real visitors wait 419 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Speed Index: 3.3 s

    3.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.016

    0.016

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.016, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.8 s

    0.8 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.8 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 53 ms

    53 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 53 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix65
  • Page weight: 2.0 MB in 43 requests

    2.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.0 MB in 43 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (23), scripts 710 KiB (6) and other files 33 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 15 images in older formats

    15 images (1.1 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

    88 KiB

    1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example pp11.png at 1,066 px wide, shown at 248 px. Resized copies would save about 88 KiB.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.57 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.57 g of CO₂e: 68.5 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

5 to fixGoogle 8592
  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • Links look like plain text

    1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

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

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • 38 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 43 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 38 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

8 to fixGoogle 9262
  • 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: “Jackbox.TV”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No XML sitemap

    No XML sitemap at https://jackbox.tv/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

  • No robots.txt

    There is no robots.txt at jackbox.tv/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

    No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

1 checks passed
  • Meta description: 112 characters

    Your meta description is 112 characters: “Jackbox.tv is your controller for all of the Jackbox Party Packs and standalone games. Make some weird memories.”.

AI search readiness

1 to fix69
  • 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 https://jackbox.tv/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.

Best practices

Google 100100
  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    27 of 30 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix42
  • 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.

  • No social proof

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

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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.

  • Only about 108 words

    The homepage has only about 108 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP NOW!” and “BUY NOW ON AMAZON”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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). A consent tool (CookieYes) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 7 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 7 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: CookieYes

    A consent management tool (CookieYes) loads with the page.

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 jackbox.tv, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
