Speed

3 to fix70
  • Mobile performance score: 70

    70/100

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

  • Improve image delivery

    300 ms · 86 KiB

    4 images could be 86 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • Shopify adds 70 ms

    70 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 70 ms of main-thread work and 408 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.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    280 ms · 39 KiB

    About 39 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 280 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

    4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.

  • 3 third-party services on the page

    3 third-party services load with your homepage (Shopify, shop.app and myshopify.com), adding 426 KiB and 70 ms of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    6 KiB

    4 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (6 KiB).

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 302 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 fix70
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.3 s

    6.3 s

    Your largest element takes 6.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Snow & Sport Base - Base of Real racing Brands”.

  • Speed Index: 5.3 s

    5.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 6.4 s

    6.4 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 6.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

2 checks passed
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 0 ms

    0 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.48 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.48 g of CO₂e: 57.4 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: 1.7 MB in 208 requests

    1.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 1.7 MB in 208 requests on a phone: other files 801 KiB (101), scripts 421 KiB (72) and fonts 217 KiB (5). 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

2 to fixGoogle 10098
  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings should not be empty (2 elements)

    Headings should not be empty: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 6 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 51 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 52 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 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

5 to fixGoogle 8579
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 H1 headlines

    There are 2 <h1> headlines (“” and “”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image, so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • No favicon declared

    No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

  • 1 link crawlers can't follow

    1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.

  • 241 internal links, 2 external

    The homepage links to 241 pages on snowsportbase.com and 2 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Title: 37 characters

    Your title is a healthy 37 characters: “Snow & Sport Base – Snow & Sport Base”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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.snowsportbase.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
4 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.

  • Organization data: 4 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (857 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

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

Other pages

100
  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 117 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    8 pages of 15 loaded without an error (the rest turned automated requests away).

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    9 of 9 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

4 to fix50
  • 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 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 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 352 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 352 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 3 calls to action

    The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact”.

  • 9 short forms

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

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 cookies set on arrival

    6

    Opening the homepage sets 6 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.

  • 5 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 snowsportbase.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
