Render-blocking requests
4.2 s16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 4.2 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.5 s · 424 KiBAbout 424 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 58
58/100Your mobile performance score is 58. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 117 KiB7 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (117 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
600 ms · 67 KiBAbout 67 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
1,516 HTML elements
The page has 1,516 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 (Accessibe Accessibility Overlay, productcustomizer.com and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 823 KiB and 370 ms of main-thread time.
Minify JavaScript
150 ms · 14 KiB14 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 76 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Improve image delivery
22 KiB2 images could be 22 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
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.

Speed Index: 7.6 s
7.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
6 images without width and height

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.3 MB in 154 requests
2.3 MBYour homepage downloads 2.3 MB in 154 requests on a phone: scripts 1.0 MB (50), other files 722 KiB (80) and images 271 KiB (9). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.6 g of CO₂ per visit
0.65 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.65 g of CO₂e: 77.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

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
Invalid ARIA attributes
5 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
24 text elements with low contrast
24 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (48 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 48 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (2 elements)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Document should not have more than one banner landmark (1 element)
Document should not have more than one banner landmark: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)
Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
35 links without text
35 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h4 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 11 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is short (15 characters)
Your title is only 15 characters: “Soccer Zone USA”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
248 internal links, 7 external
The homepage links to 248 pages on soccerzoneusa.com and 7 external pages.
4 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://soccerzoneusa.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://soccerzoneusa.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
Most text only appears after JavaScript runs
25%A phone browser shows 3,676 words, but the HTML your server sends has only 903. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot read that HTML without running JavaScript, so they see an almost empty page. Server-side rendering or pre-rendering fixes it.
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.
2 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.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://soccerzoneusa.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages

8 pages without an H1

Best practices
9 small tap targets
9 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
4 JavaScript errors while loading
4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Uncaught (in promise) Price Rules is not enabled for this store.”.
3 distorted images
3 images are displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so they look stretched or squashed.
1 low-resolution image
1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.
1 checks passed
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 social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 3,676 words of copy
The homepage carries about 3,676 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “SHOP BY CLUB”, “SIGN UP” and “SHOP NOW”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Opening hours shown

Privacy and tracking
3 trackers load before any consent
3Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Tag Manager 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.
15 cookies set on arrival
15Opening the homepage sets 15 cookies, 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.
28 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 28 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 soccerzoneusa.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
