Speed

14 to fix28
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    8.5 s · 1.8 MB

    About 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 s

    Google 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

    28/100

    Your 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 MB

    25 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 KiB

    15 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 ms

    The 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 ms

    Reduce initial server response time. Google estimates savings of 596 ms on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    350 ms

    6 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 ms

    YouTube 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 ms

    Your server takes 696 ms to send the HTML. Google recommends under 600 ms; everything else waits for it.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    150 ms · 19 KiB

    Polyfills 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

11 to fix33
  • 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 s

    Real 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 s

    Real 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 s

    Your 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 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 17.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 33.4 s

    33.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 33.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 5.5 s

    5.5 s

    The 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 s

    Scripts 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 ms

    Real 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 ms

    Real 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

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.001

    0.001

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.001, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix33
  • Page weight: 6.5 MB in 203 requests

    6.5 MB

    Your 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 g

    By 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

2 to fixGoogle 8895
  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8582
  • 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

1 to fix83
  • 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

Google 100100
  • 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

5 to fix33
  • 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

1 to fix
  • 4 trackers load before any consent

    4

    Before 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

    1

    Opening 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.
