Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.1 s · 1.3 MBAbout 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 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.
Main-thread work: 12.6 s
A phone's processor spends 12.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 7.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.1 s
1.1 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 986 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Signyfyd adds 1.1 s
1.1 sSignyfyd costs a phone 1.1 s of main-thread work and 260 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 36
36/100Your mobile performance score is 36. 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 (Signyfyd, Google Tag Manager and FullStory and others), adding 2.4 MB and 3.5 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
450 ms · 897 KiB46 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (897 KiB).
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 391 KiB18 images could be 391 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 427 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
FullStory adds 394 ms
394 msFullStory costs a phone 394 ms of main-thread work and 284 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.
Facebook adds 301 ms
301 msFacebook costs a phone 301 ms of main-thread work and 284 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.
Klaviyo adds 212 ms
212 msKlaviyo costs a phone 212 ms of main-thread work and 326 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.
1,638 HTML elements
The page has 1,638 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
260 ms · 71 KiBAbout 71 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 260 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 121 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 121 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
24 KiB24 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
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: 6.1 MB in 381 requests
6.1 MBYour homepage downloads 6.1 MB in 381 requests on a phone: scripts 3.6 MB (132), other files 992 KiB (185) and images 967 KiB (39). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
KUIU-Splash-Veros-Whitetail-Waterfowl-750x1000_500x.jpg 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).
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (21 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.7 g of CO₂ per visit
1.74 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.74 g of CO₂e: 208.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
70 images without alt text
70 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (3 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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 (3 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h5, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
44 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 44 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

AI search readiness

3 checks passed

Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
Requests the notification permission on page load
Requests the notification permission on page load.
2 checks passed
No console errors

Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set

http:// redirects to https

All 47 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 7 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
kuiu.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
3 checks passed
Domain is 20 years old
20 yearskuiu.com was registered in Aug 2006 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only digicert.com, globalsign.com, pki.goog and letsencrypt.org to issue certificates for kuiu.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Aug 2027
kuiu.com is registered until Aug 2027.
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.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 698 words of copy
The homepage carries about 698 words of visible text.
5 checks passed

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
SPF with a strict ending (-all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spf.emailsignatures365.com include:spf.tipalti.com include:email.cam…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1”, “k2” and “s1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
