Speed

9 to fix41
  • Improve image delivery

    16.9 s · 3.5 MB

    3 images could be 3.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 16.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 41

    41/100

    Your mobile performance score is 41. 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, Clarity and Shopify and others), adding 1.4 MB and 626 ms of main-thread time.

  • Render-blocking requests

    700 ms

    6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    300 ms · 325 KiB

    About 325 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 391 ms

    391 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 391 ms of main-thread work and 652 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.

  • Main-thread work: 2.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 2,228 HTML elements

    The page has 2,228 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • gubagoo.io adds 10 ms

    10 ms

    gubagoo.io costs a phone 10 ms of main-thread work and 518 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.

  • 7 long tasks on the main thread

    7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 138 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    44 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (44 KiB).

  • Reduce unused CSS

    39 KiB

    About 39 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    7 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 7 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 23 ms

    23 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 23 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 21.3 s

    21.3 s

    Your largest element takes 21.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Koch Lincoln dealership”.

  • Time to Interactive: 29.3 s

    29.3 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 29.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.597

    0.597

    The layout shifts by 0.597 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Speed Index: 8.6 s

    8.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 83% slower for real visitors

    +83%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 102 ms to 179 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +9%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.0 s to 1.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

  • Real-user FCP: 0.8 s

  • Real-user TTFB: 339 ms

    339 ms

    Real visitors wait 339 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 199 ms

    199 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 199 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

2 to fix55
  • Page weight: 6.2 MB in 205 requests

    6.2 MB

    Your homepage downloads 6.2 MB in 205 requests on a phone: images 3.6 MB (11), other files 1.2 MB (105) and scripts 1.0 MB (62). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 1 image over 500 KB

    Nov_Lincoln_campaign_mobile_ed1edc55-313b-4f65-b802-723efa1a weighs 879 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.76 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.76 g of CO₂e: 211.4 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

5 to fixGoogle 9092
  • 6 tap targets too small

    6 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Links must have discernible text (3 elements)

    Links must have discernible text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 17 form fields without a label

    17 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • 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
  • 47 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 51 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9286
  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • 3 links with vague text

    3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 134 characters

    Your meta description is 134 characters: “Edmonton and area premier Lincoln dealership. Home of the Lincoln MKC, MKX, MKZ, Continental and Navigator. Browse our …”.

  • Title: 40 characters

    Your title is a healthy 40 characters: “Koch Lincoln - Lincoln Motors Dealership”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.kochlincoln.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: AutoDealer, WebPage and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • 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://www.kochlincoln.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix75
  • Most text only appears after JavaScript runs

    0%

    A phone browser shows 526 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. 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.

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.

  • Organization data: 6 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.kochlincoln.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9291
  • 23 small tap targets

    23 of 51 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix69
  • No calls to action

    We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

  • 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 form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

  • About 526 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 526 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Book Now” and “2026 Lincoln Aviator Reserve”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.

  • Opening hours shown

    Your opening hours are on the homepage.

  • Phone number on the homepage

    Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.

  • LocalBusiness structured data

    Your homepage describes the business with LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants can read its address, hours and phone reliably.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.

  • 30 cookies set on arrival

    30

    Opening the homepage sets 30 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • No consent tool detected

    No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.

  • 25 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 25 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

Security, domain, email and software versions

The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at kochlincoln.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
