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
1.9 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.9 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 23
23/100Your mobile performance score is 23 (desktop: 65). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.9 s
A phone's processor spends 7.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,739 HTML elements
The page has 3,739 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Infolinks and Google/Doubleclick Ads and others), adding 2.2 MB and 1.8 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 1.5 MB148 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 931 KiB24 images could be 931 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 384 ms
384 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 384 ms of main-thread work and 471 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.
Google/Doubleclick Ads adds 302 ms
302 msGoogle/Doubleclick Ads costs a phone 302 ms of main-thread work and 523 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.
Infolinks adds 302 ms
302 msInfolinks costs a phone 302 ms of main-thread work and 169 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.
Pubmatic adds 255 ms
255 msPubmatic costs a phone 255 ms of main-thread work and 46 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.
videobot.com adds 157 ms
157 msvideobot.com costs a phone 157 ms of main-thread work and 676 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.
Minify JavaScript
240 ms · 52 KiB52 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 197 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
59 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 59 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Reduce unused CSS
17 KiBAbout 17 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 65 but mobile only 23. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 12.8 MB in 1,025 requests
12.8 MBYour homepage downloads 12.8 MB in 1,025 requests on a phone: media 7.6 MB (3), scripts 2.5 MB (79) and images 1.9 MB (317). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
5 images far larger than shown
477 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example 107.png at 500 px wide, shown at 32 px. Resized copies would save about 477 KiB.
7 images in older formats
7 images (572 KiB) 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.
12 images below the first screen load straight away
12 images further down the page (576 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 3.6 g of CO₂ per visit
3.64 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.64 g of CO₂e: 436.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Unlabelled dropdowns
1 dropdown has no label.
62 text elements with low contrast
62 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
<dl>'s do not contain only properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements.
<dl>'s do not contain only properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements. (1 element).
Frames without titles
1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.
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 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 156 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Search” and “2026-27 Regular Season”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (176 characters)
Your meta description is 176 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at komets.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
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.
127 internal links, 117 external
The homepage links to 127 pages on komets.com and 117 external pages.
5 checks passed
Title: 65 characters
Your title is a healthy 65 characters: “Fort Wayne Komets | Fort Wayne, IN Professional Hockey | Schedule”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://komets.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: SportsTeam.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://komets.com/sitemap.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 https://komets.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
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,261 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
15 pages without a meta description
https://komets.com/news, https://komets.com/team/statistics, https://komets.com/team/standings, https://komets.com/team/roster, https://komets.com/team/staff and https://komets.com/jobs and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

Content and conversion
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 trust badge. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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 1,630 words of copy
The homepage carries about 1,630 words of visible text.
Urgency cues

Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 1 email link.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage as a tap-to-call link.
Privacy and tracking
7 trackers load before any consent
7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Criteo, Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (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.
14 cookies set on arrival
14Opening the homepage sets 14 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.
61 other companies contacted

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 komets.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
