Speed

4 to fix70
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 109 KiB

    9 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (109 KiB).

  • 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

    750 ms · 61 KiB

    About 61 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    400 ms · 271 KiB

    7 images could be 271 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

  • 7 third-party services on the page

    7 third-party services load with your homepage (omnisnippet1.com, Shopify and casaapps.com and others), adding 321 KiB and 206 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 23 KiB

    About 23 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 72 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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: 1.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 501 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

4 to fix100
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 7.3 s

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 22 ms

    22 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 22 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.51 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.51 g of CO₂e: 61.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 1.8 MB in 201 requests

    1.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.8 MB in 201 requests on a phone: other files 874 KiB (130), scripts 439 KiB (50) and images 437 KiB (15). That is a lean page.

  • 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

7 to fixGoogle 8692
  • 10 tap targets too small

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

  • 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.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Zoom is disabled

    The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.

  • 1 link without text

    1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.

  • ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (1 element)

    ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 23 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 48 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 55 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 7 failed. 2 mores 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 (268 characters)

    Your meta description is 268 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • 71 internal links, 14 external

    The homepage links to 71 pages on petkit.co.uk and 14 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “PETKIT UK”.

  • Title: 46 characters

    Your title is a healthy 46 characters: “Petkit | Self Cleaning, Extra Large, Odor free”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://petkit.co.uk/.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, 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://petkit.co.uk/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • Organization data is thin (2 of 6 facts)

    Your Organization JSON-LD is missing logo, sameAs (social profiles), 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 (699 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://petkit.co.uk/llms.txt (5 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

5 to fix71
  • 1 page points its canonical at the homepage

    https://petkit.co.uk/products/petkit-puramax-2 declares the homepage as its canonical URL, which tells Google it is a copy of the homepage and keeps it out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 2 pages share a title

    / and https://petkit.co.uk/products/petkit-puramax-2 all use the title “Petkit | Self Cleaning, Extra Large, Odor free”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 7 pages without a meta description

    https://petkit.co.uk/collections/feed, https://petkit.co.uk/collections/drink, https://petkit.co.uk/collections/cat-litter, https://petkit.co.uk/collections/accessories, https://petkit.co.uk/products/purobot-crystal-duo-automatic-cat-litter-box-with-camera and https://petkit.co.uk/products/petkit-purobot-ultra and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages share a meta description

    https://petkit.co.uk/collections and https://petkit.co.uk/products/petkit-puramax-2 use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://petkit.co.uk/collections has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 32 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

3 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • 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

2 to fixGoogle 9687
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 14 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught Error: Goaffpro is already loaded. This message prevents duplicate loading of the script. Kindly ignore.”.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • 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.

  • Thin social proof

    Social proof on the homepage: 6 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.

  • 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 307 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 307 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Shop All”, “Contact US” and “Shop”.

  • 2 short forms

    2 short forms (1 field at most) are right on the homepage.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 3 email links.

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 2 trackers load before any consent

    2

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.

  • 11 cookies set on arrival

    11

    Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (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.

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 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 petkit.co.uk, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
