Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
3.4 s · 3.3 MB39 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.3 MB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.7 s · 710 KiBAbout 710 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.7 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
2.2 s6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 10
10/100Your mobile performance score is 10. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.3 s
A phone's processor spends 9.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
5,598 HTML elements
The page has 5,598 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Improve image delivery
800 ms · 1.5 MB13 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 800 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.5 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and cloudfront.net and others), adding 546 KiB and 343 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 58 KiBAbout 58 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 29 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 29 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
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
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.4 MB in 133 requests
5.4 MBYour homepage downloads 5.4 MB in 133 requests on a phone: images 3.1 MB (36), scripts 1.7 MB (48) and fonts 337 KiB (8). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
32x32_f3156af4b1.gif weighs 1.1 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
5 images in older formats
5 images (2.0 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.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
New_arrivals_Top_Banner_on_Web_1280x720_EN_831e69f6e6.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
5 images far larger than shown
199 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example New_arrivals_Top_Banner_on_Web_1280x720_EN_831e69f6e6.png at 1,280 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 199 KiB.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (55 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.53 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.53 g of CO₂e: 184.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values (1 element)
ARIA attributes must conform to valid values: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (268 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 268 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (6 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5), 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
39 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 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
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
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.
7 links crawlers can't follow
7 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
50 internal links, 49 external
The homepage links to 50 pages on kingpower.com and 49 external pages.

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
16%A phone browser shows 1,263 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 204. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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://www.kingpower.com/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.
1 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.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.kingpower.com/en and / all use the title “KING POWER ONLINE | Duty Free & Home Delivery Shopping”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
3 pages without a meta description
https://www.kingpower.com/brand/chloe, https://www.kingpower.com/brand/shiseido and https://www.kingpower.com/brand/on have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
10 pages without an H1
