Speed

6 to fix70
  • Improve image delivery

    10.7 s · 2.1 MB

    1 image could be 2.1 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 10.7 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

    Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    450 ms · 174 KiB

    About 174 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    400 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 400 ms.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 77 KiB

    3 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (77 KiB).

  • 1,832 HTML elements

    The page has 1,832 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, automizely.com and shop.app), adding 324 KiB and 231 ms of main-thread time.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 86 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Minify JavaScript

    21 KiB

    21 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    12 KiB

    About 12 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 631 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 7 ms

    7 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 7 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 15.8 s

    15.8 s

    Your largest element takes 15.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 15.8 s

    15.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Tap response (INP) got 23% slower for real visitors

    +23%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 138 ms to 167 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 31% slower for real visitors

    +31%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 2.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user TTFB: 873 ms

    873 ms

    Real visitors wait 873 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Speed Index: 5.7 s

    5.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 15 images without width and height

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

7 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.1 s

    2.1 s

    Real visitors wait 2.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 181 ms

    181 ms

  • Real-user CLS: 0.05

    0.05

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.05 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.6 s

    1.6 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.1 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

  • Total Blocking Time: 55 ms

    55 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 55 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

3 to fix60
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    Owlkay-ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter_540x.gif weighs 7.6 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 1 image in older formats

    1 image (7.6 MB) is 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.

  • Page weight: 3.0 MB in 62 requests

    3.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 62 requests on a phone: images 2.2 MB (6), scripts 359 KiB (34) and fonts 195 KiB (7). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.84 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.84 g of CO₂e: 100.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • 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

7 to fixGoogle 8591
  • 41 text elements with low contrast

    41 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • Hidden but focusable

    34 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

  • 28 tap targets too small

    28 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

  • Links must have discernible text (1 element)

    Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (4 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 3 form fields without a label

    3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h5 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 19 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 50 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 7 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10095
  • Meta description is long (165 characters)

    Your meta description is 165 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 185 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 185 pages on owlkay.com and 9 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Owlkay”.

  • Title: 61 characters

    Your title is a healthy 61 characters: “Owlkay Online - Where Your Dreams Liftstyle Became Affordable”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.owlkay.com/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • Open Graph tags complete

    Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.owlkay.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (3 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, description and contact details. These are the facts AI assistants use to describe a business and to tell it apart from others with a similar name.

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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,682 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://www.owlkay.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 15 pages without a meta description

    https://www.owlkay.com/collections/best-seller, https://www.owlkay.com/collections/easy-care, https://www.owlkay.com/collections/winter-luxe-shoes, https://www.owlkay.com/collections/shoes-1, https://www.owlkay.com/collections/owlkay-wide-shoes and https://www.owlkay.com/collections/stride-harmony and 9 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 3 pages without an H1

    https://www.owlkay.com/collections/easy-care, https://www.owlkay.com/collections/owlkay-wide-shoes and https://www.owlkay.com/collections/sneakers have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 2 pages slow to respond

    https://www.owlkay.com/collections/boots and https://www.owlkay.com/collections/acc took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9687

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion

2 to fix83
  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 123 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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.

  • About 1,349 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,349 words of visible text.

4 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “FREE SHINPING on order over $59!”.

  • 6 calls to action

  • Risk reducer mentioned

    A guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card or similar) is mentioned on the page.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Snap 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.

  • 15 cookies set on arrival

    15

    Opening the homepage sets 15 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.

  • 16 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 16 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 owlkay.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
