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
1.2 s · 166 KiBAbout 166 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
6,431 HTML elements
The page has 6,431 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 60
60/100Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 154 KiB20 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (154 KiB).
Main-thread work: 2.2 s
A phone's processor spends 2.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 907 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Attentive, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and others), adding 870 KiB and 390 ms of main-thread time.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 95 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
84 KiB6 images could be 84 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 246 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 246 requests on a phone: scripts 732 KiB (85), other files 729 KiB (92) and images 641 KiB (35). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.1 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
24 text elements with low contrast
24 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 39 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 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: 49 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 short (27 characters)
Your title is only 27 characters: “New Kids on the Block Store”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Meta description is short (47 characters)
Your meta description is only 47 characters: “Official online store of New Kids on the Block.”. 70 to 160 characters is enough to sell the click.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No XML sitemap
No XML sitemap at https://nkotb.store/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.
One H1 headline
Your <h1> is empty.
82 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 82 pages on nkotbstore.com and 5 external pages.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://nkotb.store/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://nkotb.store/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.
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: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,666 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
Your server turned our page checks away
15 pages we tried to fetch timed out or refused automated requests, so these checks couldn't run. Some firewalls do this to every bot, including search engine crawlers they don't recognise.
Best practices
10 small tap targets
10 of 23 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
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
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 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 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 386 words of copy
The homepage carries about 386 words of visible text.
3 checks passed
1 call to action
The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Contact Support”.
6 short forms
6 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Privacy and tracking
5 trackers load before any consent
5Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel (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.
20 cookies set on arrival
20Opening the homepage sets 20 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.
20 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 20 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 nkotbstore.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 6 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
Apps your storefront loads
Geo Pro Geolocation · Minmaxify Order Limits · Klaviyo Email Marketing Sms · Attentive · Easylocation · attn.tv
Apps found in the homepage's code. Apps that only run in checkout or the admin aren't seen, and a headless storefront shows none. App data from programmable.info
