Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 503 KiBAbout 503 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
800 ms · 543 KiB31 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (543 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 74
74/100Your mobile performance score is 74 (desktop: 63). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Cookiebot and Clarity and others), adding 806 KiB and 618 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 359 ms
359 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 359 ms of main-thread work and 510 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 CSS
150 ms · 46 KiBAbout 46 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 · 10 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 10 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 149 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
50 ms · 74 KiB2 images could be 74 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 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.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 1.4 s
A phone's processor spends 1.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 753 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 24 ms
24 msYour server sent the HTML in 24 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.
Time to Interactive: 11.1 s
11.1 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 11.1 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.5 s
4.5 sYour largest element takes 4.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Unleash the power of brand and design.”.
Real-user LCP: 2.8 s
2.8 sReal visitors wait 2.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.3 s
2.3 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.4 s
1.4 sReal visitors wait 1.4 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Speed Index: 5.5 s
5.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.6 s
2.6 sThe first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
6 images without width and height
6 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+2%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 121 ms to 126 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit
0.48 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.48 g of CO₂e: 57.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 1.7 MB in 73 requests
1.7 MBYour homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 73 requests on a phone: scripts 911 KiB (24), images 458 KiB (13) and fonts 264 KiB (8). That is a lean page.
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
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.
7 links without text
7 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 30 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 2 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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.
46 internal links, 19 external
The homepage links to 46 pages on kiska.com and 19 external pages.
8 checks passed
Meta description: 70 characters
Your meta description is 70 characters: “KISKA drives business growth and transformation with brand and design.”.
One H1 headline

Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://kiska.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: NewsArticle and VideoObject.
Open Graph tags complete

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://kiska.com/sitemap/.
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 https://kiska.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.
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 (640 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page points its canonical at the homepage
https://kiska.com/cn declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.
5 pages without an H1
https://kiska.com/work, https://kiska.com/services, https://kiska.com/terms-and-conditions, https://kiska.com/imprint and https://kiska.com/privacy have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages slow to respond
https://kiska.com/imprint and https://kiska.com/work/performance-boats took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 33 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 2 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
