soccerpost.com website review

7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.

43 images could be 1.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.

14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (464 KiB).

Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (accessibilityassistant.com, Shopify and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.7 MB and 688 ms of main-thread time.

About 272 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.

A phone's processor spends 3.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 253 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

The page has 2,395 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

Shopify costs a phone 157 ms of main-thread work and 820 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.

accessibilityassistant.com costs a phone 200 ms of main-thread work and 381 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.

About 54 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.

Polyfills for old browsers add 28 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

4 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Your largest element takes 10.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

The page becomes fully interactive after 17.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

3 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 146 ms to 153 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 6.5 MB in 308 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (67), scripts 1.4 MB (116) and other files 1.2 MB (100). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

Nike_Sam_Kerr_Pack_092126SPMobile_750x1100_a9bf5b26-3e87-481 is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).

8 images further down the page (705 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.84 g of CO₂e: 220.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

48 elements hidden from screen readers can still receive keyboard focus.

ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.

1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

1 frame has no title, so screen-reader users cannot tell what it contains.

Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

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

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

2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

The homepage links to 494 pages on soccerpost.com and 12 external pages.

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.

3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Access to fetch at 'https://operations-test.soccerpost.com/livescore-today.json' from origin 'https://soccerpost.com' h…”.

Social proof on the homepage: 4 trust badges. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
