Speed

13 to fix23
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    1.9 s · 1.1 MB

    About 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

    23/100

    Your 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 MB

    148 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.5 MB).

  • Improve image delivery

    450 ms · 931 KiB

    24 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 ms

    2 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 ms

    Google 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 ms

    Google/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 ms

    Infolinks 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 ms

    Pubmatic 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 ms

    videobot.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 KiB

    52 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 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 59 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    17 KiB

    About 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 14 ms

    14 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 14 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 10.6 s

    10.6 s

    Your largest element takes 10.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Komets Shop”.

  • Time to Interactive: 43.9 s

    43.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 43.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.1 s

    9.1 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.489

    0.489

    The layout shifts by 0.489 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • Total Blocking Time: 687 ms

    687 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 687 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 3.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • 59 images without width and height

    59 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 118 ms to 126 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 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.1 s to 1.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user TTFB: 531 ms

    531 ms

Images and page weight

4 to fix43
  • Page weight: 12.8 MB in 1,025 requests

    12.8 MB

    Your 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 KiB

    5 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 g

    By 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

7 to fix81
  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8584
  • 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

1 to fix88
  • 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

1 to fix95
  • 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.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 72 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 6988
  • 38 third-party cookies

    38 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 5 JavaScript errors while loading

    5 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

  • 1 distorted image

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

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    72 of 72 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • 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

    The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Schedule” and “Printable Schedule (PDF)”.

  • 17 calls to action

    The homepage has 17 calls to action, for example “Schedule”, “Printable Schedule (PDF)” and “Official Record Book”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (7 fields at most) are right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

  • 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

1 to fix
  • 7 trackers load before any consent

    7

    Before 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

    14

    Opening 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

    Loading the homepage contacts 61 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 komets.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
