Speed

8 to fix54
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    3.1 s · 606 KiB

    About 606 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 54

    54/100

    Your mobile performance score is 54. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and ahrefs.com and others), adding 854 KiB and 638 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    400 ms · 127 KiB

    About 127 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 58 KiB

    2 images could be 58 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 447 ms

    447 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 447 ms of main-thread work and 538 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 39 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (39 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    300 ms

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

  • 6 long tasks on the main thread

    6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 212 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

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

  • Minify CSS

    18 KiB

    18 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    8 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Minify JavaScript

    8 KiB

    8 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.

  • 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: 1.7 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 718 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 5 ms

    5 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.0 s

    13.0 s

    Your largest element takes 13.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 13.0 s

    13.0 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 13.0 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 6.2 s

    6.2 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.23

    0.23

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.23 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 537 ms

    537 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 537 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    0%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 103 ms to 97 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 0.7 s

    0.7 s

    Real visitors wait 0.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 87 ms

    87 ms

    Real visitors wait 87 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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: 502 ms

    502 ms

    Real visitors wait 502 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 20% faster for real visitors

    -20%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

100
  • 2 images in older formats

    2 images (84 KiB) 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.

  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.47 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.47 g of CO₂e: 57.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.7 MB in 66 requests

    1.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 66 requests on a phone: scripts 1.2 MB (27), fonts 231 KiB (8) and stylesheets 137 KiB (13). That is a lean page.

  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8895
  • 1 text element with low contrast

    1 text element doesn'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.

  • 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.

  • No main landmark

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

  • 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 13 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 43 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 43 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

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • Title is short (29 characters)

    Your title is only 29 characters: “Indoor Kart Racing | K1 Speed”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

    The homepage links to 95 pages on k1speed.com and 14 external pages.

7 checks passed

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 (400 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.k1speed.com/llms.txt (16 KiB, 165 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.k1speed.com/faqs.html has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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.

  • 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 328 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 328 words of visible text.

  • Urgency cues

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

4 checks passed

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Ads and The Trade Desk and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Ketch) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 18 cookies set on arrival

    18

    Opening the homepage sets 18 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Ketch

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

Security, domain, email and software versions
