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
8.5 s · 1.8 MBAbout 1.8 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 8.5 s faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 2.2 s
2.2 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 2.2 s of main-thread work and 921 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 11.9 s
A phone's processor spends 11.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 28
28/100Your mobile performance score is 28. 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 (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and Twitter and others), adding 2.2 MB and 2.7 s of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
650 ms · 1.5 MB25 images could be 1.5 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
800 ms · 812 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (812 KiB).
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 673 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Document request latency
600 msThe HTML itself could arrive about 600 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Reduce initial server response time
596 msReduce initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 596 ms on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
1,614 HTML elements
The page has 1,614 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
YouTube adds 11 ms
11 msYouTube costs a phone 11 ms of main-thread work and 944 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.
Server response: 696 ms
696 msYour server takes 696 ms to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
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.
Real-user LCP: 7.9 s
7.9 sReal visitors wait 7.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 7.7 s
7.7 sReal visitors see the first content after 7.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 32.0 s
32.0 sYour largest element takes 32.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “About SailGP”.
Speed Index: 17.4 s
17.4 sVisually, the page fills in at 17.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 33.4 s
33.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 33.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 5.5 s
5.5 sThe first text or image appears after 5.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 2.1 s
2.1 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 2.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user INP: 279 ms
279 msReal visitors wait 279 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.
Real-user TTFB: 961 ms
961 msReal visitors wait 961 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
33 images without width and height
33 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) got 17% slower for real visitors
+17%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 227 ms to 246 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
+7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 5.7 s to 6.0 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
2 checks passed
Real-user CLS: 0.00
0.00For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001
0.001The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.5 MB in 203 requests
6.5 MBYour homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 203 requests on a phone: scripts 2.8 MB (47), images 2.6 MB (82) and HTML 653 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit
1.84 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.84 g of CO₂e: 220.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
15 text elements with low contrast
15 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 checks passed
19 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 20 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 19 passed and 1 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
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.
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.
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.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 107 characters
Your meta description is 107 characters: “The Official Website of SailGP - get the latest sail racing news, calendar, results, rankings and schedule.”.
Title: 62 characters
Your title is a healthy 62 characters: “SailGP - The home of the world’s most exciting racing on water”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://sailgp.com/.
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://sailgp.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
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://sailgp.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
Missing source maps
Large scripts ship without source maps.
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 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 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 0 words
The homepage has only about 0 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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.
1 checks passed
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity (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.
1 cookie set on arrival
1Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie, 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.
15 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 15 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 sailgp.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
