killcrew.co does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Main-thread work: 10.0 s
A phone's processor spends 10.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8,553 HTML elements
The page has 8,553 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 53
53/100Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, Klaviyo and applovin.com and others), adding 1.4 MB and 741 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 238 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (238 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 103 KiBAbout 103 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 534 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 307 KiBAbout 307 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Shopify adds 338 ms
338 msShopify costs a phone 338 ms of main-thread work and 892 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.
Klaviyo adds 233 ms
233 msKlaviyo costs a phone 233 ms of main-thread work and 325 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.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 79 KiB5 images could be 79 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.
Legacy JavaScript
70 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 70 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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 16 ms
16 msYour server sent the HTML in 16 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals

Largest Contentful Paint: 4.4 s
4.4 sYour largest element takes 4.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “BANNER-RESIZEM.png”.
Tap response (INP) got 32% slower for real visitors
+32%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 82 ms to 111 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

1.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.7 MB in 593 requests
3.7 MBYour homepage downloads 3.7 MB in 593 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (200), other files 1.4 MB (339) and images 521 KiB (29). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.1 g of CO₂ per visit
1.06 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.06 g of CO₂e: 127.5 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
3 images without alt text
3 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 checks passed
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (26 characters)
Your title is only 26 characters: “Kill Crew - Fighter's Club”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “EVERYONE'S GOT SOMETHING TO KILL”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (188 characters)
Your meta description is 188 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
440 internal links, 0 external
The homepage links to 440 pages on killcrew.co and 0 external pages.
5 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://killcrew.co/.
Structured data in place

AI search readiness
4 checks passed

Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (3,590 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
15 pages share a meta description

Mobile viewport set

Security and trust
Short HSTS lifetime
HSTS is set, but max-age is 91 days; one year is the recommended minimum.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
Deprecated X-XSS-Protection
X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (killcrew.co).
Valid certificate (45 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for killcrew.co and is valid for another 45 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
http:// redirects to https

HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

All 40 links work
All 40 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 0 external) answered without errors; 7 did not answer within 5 s.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
killcrew.co 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.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
About 889 words of copy

Risk reducer mentioned
A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.
Email authentication
DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)
DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be killcrew.co is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.
Email authentication score: 70/100
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.
2 checks passed
SPF in place (~all)
