Speed

7 to fix73
  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, squarecdn.com and ZenDesk and others), adding 1.1 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Mobile performance score: 73

    73/100

    Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 685 ms

    685 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 685 ms of main-thread work and 603 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 JavaScript

    130 ms · 580 KiB

    About 580 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 130 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 277 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Main-thread work: 2.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    232 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (232 KiB).

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    32 KiB

    About 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    28 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 28 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    10 KiB

    10 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • 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.

  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

4 to fix77
  • Time to Interactive: 12.2 s

    12.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 12.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 803 ms

    803 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 803 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.8 s

    5.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 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
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.1 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “Welcome to K-DEER.com, if you haven't heard, I had to make …”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 2.1 MB in 142 requests

    2.1 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.1 MB in 142 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (49), other files 725 KiB (82) and HTML 78 KiB (3). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.59 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.59 g of CO₂e: 71.2 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

5 to fixGoogle 9588
  • 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.

  • No main landmark

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

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 17 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 15 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 20 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 15 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 10074
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is short (25 characters)

    Your title is only 25 characters: “K-DEER | A Closed Chapter”. 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.

  • Meta description is long (320 characters)

    Your meta description is 320 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 141 internal links, 3 external

    The homepage links to 141 pages on k-deer.com and 3 external pages.

4 checks passed
  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.k-deer.com/.

  • 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://www.k-deer.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.

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.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.k-deer.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix70
  • 14 linked pages are broken

    Your homepage links to https://www.k-deer.com/pages/wishlist, https://www.k-deer.com/collections/restocking, https://www.k-deer.com/collections/the-loved-collection, https://www.k-deer.com/collections/signature-stripes, https://www.k-deer.com/collections/prints and https://www.k-deer.com/collections/solids and 8 others, which answer with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop them.

  • 1 page without a meta description

    https://www.k-deer.com/collections/all has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 60 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

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

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 1 page that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7389
  • 1 third-party cookie

    1 third-party cookie is set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

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 social proof

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

  • 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 111 words

    The homepage has only about 111 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.

  • Urgency cues

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

2 checks passed
  • 2 calls to action

    The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Shop All”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Analytics.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Criteo, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel 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.

  • 13 cookies set on arrival

    13

    Opening the homepage sets 13 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.

  • 24 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 24 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 k-deer.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.

Apps on your store

No apps were seen in the code your storefront loads.
