Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
2.0 s · 4.7 MB47 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (4.7 MB).
Render-blocking requests
3.4 s22 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.4 s.
Reduce unused CSS
1.5 s · 326 KiBAbout 326 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied 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.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.1 MB and 799 ms of main-thread time.
Google CDN adds 529 ms
529 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 529 ms of main-thread work and 734 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
478 KiBAbout 478 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Font display
450 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 450 ms).
Main-thread work: 3.3 s
A phone's processor spends 3.3 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Improve image delivery
250 ms · 67 KiB3 images could be 67 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 250 ms faster on a phone.
11 long tasks on the main thread
11 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 167 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
12 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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.
Minify JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Time to Interactive: 17.6 s
17.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 9.0 s
9.0 sVisually, the page fills in at 9.0 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.9 s
3.9 sThe first text or image appears after 3.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.5 s
4.5 sYour largest element takes 4.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Spin18”.
Total Blocking Time: 403 ms
403 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 403 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
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.
1 checks passed
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.02
0.02The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.02, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.2 MB in 68 requests
6.2 MBYour homepage downloads 6.2 MB in 68 requests on a phone: images 4.1 MB (8), scripts 1.1 MB (23) and stylesheets 374 KiB (24). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images in older formats
2 images (75 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.
About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit
1.76 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.76 g of CO₂e: 211.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
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
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail 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.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
31 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 35 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 31 passed and 4 failed. 2 mores 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.
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “Home - Spin18”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
19 internal links, 2 external
The homepage links to 19 pages on spin18.com and 2 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Home”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.spin18.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, WebPage 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.spin18.com/sitemap_index.xml.
AI search readiness
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 /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.
Other pages
7 pages without a meta description
/products, /discgolfpark, /dealers, /resources, /disc-golf and /about-us and 1 other have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages without an H1
/products and /about-us have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
7 internal pages checked
We fetched 7 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

Best practices
10 small tap targets
10 of 14 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
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.
Security and trust
No HSTS header
No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.
No Content-Security-Policy
No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HTTP/1.1 only
The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
5 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (spin18.com).
Valid certificate (89 days left)
The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE2 verifies for spin18.com and is valid for another 89 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
http:// redirects to https
http://spin18.com redirects to the secure version.
All 10 links work
All 10 links checked from your homepage (8 internal, 2 external) answered without errors.
Domain and trust
Domain expires in 62 days
spin18.com is registered until Jan 2027. Make sure auto-renew is on and the card on file is current.
No CAA record
spin18.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.
DNSSEC is off
spin18.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.
1 checks passed
Domain is 11 years old
11 yearsspin18.com was registered in Jan 2015 through Amazon Registrar, Inc.. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
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.
Only about 133 words
The homepage has only about 133 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
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 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.
2 checks passed
2 calls to action
The homepage has 2 calls to action, for example “Contact”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Email authentication
Email authentication score: 85/100

3 checks passed
DMARC policy: quarantine
DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication.
SPF in place (~all)
An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com include:spf1.spin18.com include:shops.shopify.com include:servers.mcsv.net in…”.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (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.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
