Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 188 KiBAbout 188 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68 (desktop: 99). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Avoid multiple page redirects
757 msThe page goes through 1 redirect before it starts loading, costing about 757 ms. Link and advertise the final URL directly.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 75 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
14 KiBAbout 14 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 99 but mobile only 68. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.6 s
A phone's processor spends 0.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 302 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 19 ms
19 msYour server sent the HTML in 19 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
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: 7.4 s
7.4 sYour largest element takes 7.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s.
Time to Interactive: 7.4 s
7.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 7.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.7 s
2.7 sReal visitors wait 2.7 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.1 s
1.1 sReal visitors wait 1.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.9 s
2.9 sThe first text or image appears after 2.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Speed Index: 4.6 s
4.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
7 images without width and height
7 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 172 ms to 178 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Total Blocking Time: 31 ms
31 msScripts block the page for only 31 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
1 image far larger than shown
63 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example hordes-keyart-1080.webp at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 63 KiB.
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.33 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.33 g of CO₂e: 39.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 1.2 MB in 62 requests
1.2 MBYour homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 62 requests on a phone: scripts 575 KiB (46), images 391 KiB (6) and fonts 121 KiB (4). 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.
Accessibility
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text (5 elements)
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious 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.
No page language
The <html> element has no lang attribute, so screen readers may read the page in the wrong voice and accent.
1 checks passed
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 46 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 1 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No page title
Your page has no <title>, so Google has to invent the blue link in search results.
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
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 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
2 checks passed
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.probablymonsters.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
0%A phone browser shows 660 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 0. 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.
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.probablymonsters.com/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.
1 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.
Best practices
No mobile viewport
No viewport meta tag, so phones render the desktop layout zoomed out.
No HTML doctype
The page has no <!DOCTYPE html>, so browsers render it in quirks mode.
No character set
No character set is declared, so some characters can render as gibberish.
2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
30 of 33 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Content and conversion
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.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
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 form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
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 660 words of copy
The homepage carries about 660 words of visible text.
1 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen
On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “PLAY DEMO NOW ON STEAM”.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads 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.
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.
2 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 2 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 probablymonsters.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
