Speed

10 to fix48
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    5.1 s · 816 KiB

    About 816 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.1 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 48

    48/100

    Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 6.2 s

    A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 3,081 HTML elements

    The page has 3,081 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (hcaptcha.com, Shopify and Clarity and others), adding 3.2 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.

  • Improve image delivery

    400 ms · 656 KiB

    27 images could be 656 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.

  • hcaptcha.com adds 887 ms

    887 ms

    hcaptcha.com costs a phone 887 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 MB 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.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    450 ms · 154 KiB

    11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (154 KiB).

  • Shopify adds 274 ms

    274 ms

    Shopify costs a phone 274 ms of main-thread work and 1.6 MB 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.

  • 10 long tasks on the main thread

    10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 273 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 28 KiB

    About 28 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    150 ms · 11 KiB

    11 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Render-blocking requests

    150 ms

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

  • Legacy JavaScript

    14 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 14 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • 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.

  • Forced reflow

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

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 9 ms

    9 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 9 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix67
  • 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: 23.7 s

    23.7 s

    Your largest element takes 23.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.

  • Time to Interactive: 30.8 s

    30.8 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 30.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • First Contentful Paint: 7.4 s

    7.4 s

    The first text or image appears after 7.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 11.6 s

    11.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 11.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.11

    0.11

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.11 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Tap response (INP) got 26% slower for real visitors

    +26%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 88 ms to 111 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Total Blocking Time: 319 ms

    319 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 319 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.0 s

    1.0 s

    Real visitors wait 1.0 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 169 ms

    169 ms

  • Real-user FCP: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 0.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 432 ms

    432 ms

    Real visitors wait 432 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 18% faster for real visitors

    -18%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

Images and page weight

4 to fix50
  • Page weight: 5.5 MB in 500 requests

    5.5 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.5 MB in 500 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (213), images 1.2 MB (47) and other files 995 KiB (186). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    Croatia_Banner_1.jpg 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).

  • 3 images far larger than shown

    300 KiB

    3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example RM.webp at 400 px wide, shown at 70 px. Resized copies would save about 300 KiB.

  • 5 images in older formats

    5 images (490 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

  • 1 image below the first screen load straight away

    1 image further down the page (21 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.6 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.56 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.56 g of CO₂e: 187.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

5 to fixGoogle 9093
  • 14 text elements with low contrast

    14 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

  • ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)

    ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Links must have discernible text (1 element)

    Links must have discernible text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.

  • Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)

    Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (4 elements)

    Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 71 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 52 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 57 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10095
  • One H1 headline

    Your <h1> is empty.

  • 507 internal links, 10 external

    The homepage links to 507 pages on soccerworldcentral.com and 10 external pages.

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 (1,495 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

  • llms.txt published

    The site publishes https://soccerworldcentral.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.

Other pages

2 to fix90
  • 3 pages without a meta description

    https://soccerworldcentral.com/policies/shipping-policy, https://soccerworldcentral.com/collections/copa-football and https://soccerworldcentral.com/collections/skechers have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 2 pages without an H1

    https://soccerworldcentral.com/collections/new-arrivals-jerseys-copy and https://soccerworldcentral.com/collections/new-arrivals-puma-copy have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion

2 to fix75
  • 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.

  • 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 363 words of copy

  • 6 short forms

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

  • Analytics in place

Privacy and tracking

1 to fix
  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, Microsoft Clarity and TikTok Pixel (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.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 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.

  • 35 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 35 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 soccerworldcentral.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
