kinco.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
4.3 s · 853 KiBAbout 853 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.3 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
2.9 s · 1.6 MB13 images could be 1.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.4 s3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 670 KiB53 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (670 KiB).
Duplicated JavaScript
1.2 s · 179 KiB179 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
1.1 s · 138 KiBAbout 138 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 43
43/100Your mobile performance score is 43 (desktop: 50). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Stripe and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.3 MB and 986 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 75 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 75 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.5 s
A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 308 ms
308 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 308 ms of main-thread work and 362 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.
13 long tasks on the main thread
13 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 188 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 28.4 s
28.4 sYour largest element takes 28.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “A person in winter gear holds a trekking pole, wearing a ye…”.
Time to Interactive: 28.9 s
28.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 28.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 7.1 s
7.1 sThe first text or image appears after 7.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.9 s
9.9 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.9 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user TTFB: 837 ms
837 msReal visitors wait 837 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Total Blocking Time: 482 ms
482 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 482 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
22 images without width and height
22 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 79 ms to 86 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+6%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.1 s to 1.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 7.2 MB in 155 requests
7.2 MBYour homepage downloads 7.2 MB in 155 requests on a phone: images 5.0 MB (46), scripts 1.6 MB (48) and fonts 268 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
31 images in older formats
31 images (3.0 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.
17 images below the first screen load straight away
17 images further down the page (1.5 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
1 image far larger than shown
37 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example Footer_Mt-Hood-Forest.webp at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 37 KiB.
About 2.0 g of CO₂ per visit
2.04 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.04 g of CO₂e: 245.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
22 tap targets too small
22 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
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.
Links look like plain text
1 link inside paragraphs relies on colour alone to stand out.
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text (1 element)
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
1 checks passed
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
7 H1 headlines
There are 7 <h1> headlines (“WINTER'S NO MATCH”, “Built to handle the cold, one job at a time” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (CreativeWork) but with 1 problem, for example “CreativeWork: mainEntityOfPage is not an absolute URL ("True")”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
66 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 66 pages on kinco.com and 5 external pages.
5 checks passed

XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.kinco.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
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 /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.
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.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (476 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Security and trust
1 broken external link
1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://bfxk-001.dx.commercecloud.salesforce.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-kinco-Site/default/Cart-Show (521).
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
2 redirects before the homepage
Opening https://kinco.com goes through 2 redirects before the homepage loads.
1 link through redirect chains
1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://instagram.com/kincogloves.

6 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (kinco.com).
Valid certificate (117 days left)
The certificate from DigiCert Inc · DigiCert Global G2 TLS RSA SHA256 2020 CA1 verifies for kinco.com and is valid for another 117 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://kinco.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2
The server speaks HTTP/2, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
No CAA record
kinco.com 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.
DNSSEC is off
kinco.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
2 checks passed
Domain is 27 years old
27 yearskinco.com was registered in Apr 1999 through CSC Corporate Domains, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Registered until Apr 2027
kinco.com is registered until Apr 2027.
Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
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.

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spfrerouting.xink.io a:production.na01.mechanixwear.demandware.net in…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “selector2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
