One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
3.4 s18 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.4 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.4 s · 540 KiBAbout 540 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.4 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.2 s · 413 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (413 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 45
45/100Your mobile performance score is 45. 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 (Shopify, Optanon and Yotpo and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
600 ms · 129 KiB7 images could be 129 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Shopify adds 568 ms
568 msShopify costs a phone 568 ms of main-thread work and 650 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.
Optanon adds 413 ms
413 msOptanon costs a phone 413 ms of main-thread work and 416 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.
Yotpo adds 343 ms
343 msYotpo costs a phone 343 ms of main-thread work and 428 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
300 ms · 78 KiBAbout 78 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.5 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
12 long tasks on the main thread
12 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 240 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 17 KiB17 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Font display
150 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 150 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 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.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.8 s
13.8 sYour largest element takes 13.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to improve your experience on our website, t…”.
Time to Interactive: 14.2 s
14.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 7.8 s
7.8 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.5 s
3.5 sThe first text or image appears after 3.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 505 ms
505 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 505 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.101
0.101The layout shifts by 0.101 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
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 4.8 s to 4.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.2 MB in 128 requests
2.2 MBYour homepage downloads 2.2 MB in 128 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (47), images 350 KiB (29) and fonts 227 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.63 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.63 g of CO₂e: 76.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
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.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
39 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 41 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 39 passed and 2 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is long (69 characters)
Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Kao Beauty Brands - Beauty & Personal Care Products Crafted with Care”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
Only 2 internal links
The homepage links to only 2 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
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.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
6 checks passed

Your meta description is 151 characters: “Kao strives to deliver beauty and value to the life of people everywhere. Our brands and products make everyday moments…”.

AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
22%A phone browser shows 158 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 35. 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

Best practices
Deprecated browser APIs
The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).
3 JavaScript errors while loading
3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Connecting to 'https://use.typekit.net/psd1ant.css' violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "connect-…”.
2 checks passed
Tap targets are thumb-sized
12 of 12 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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.
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.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
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.
Only about 158 words
The homepage has only about 158 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
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.

Analytics in place

Privacy and tracking
1 tracker load before any consent
1Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
4 cookies set on arrival
4Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
13 other companies contacted
