springstep.com website review

About 1.5 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.8 s faster on a phone.

52 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.9 s.

vtexassets.com costs a phone 1.6 s of main-thread work and 1.6 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

Google CDN costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 2.7 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

Your mobile performance score is 4. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

A phone's processor spends 9.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 6.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (vtexassets.com, Google CDN and Google Tag Manager and others), adding 5.3 MB and 4.3 s of main-thread time.

35 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (360 KiB).

5 images could be 181 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 596 ms of main-thread work and 355 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.

20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 464 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

Polyfills for old browsers add 57 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

The page has 1,512 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

About 27 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 40 ms faster on a phone.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

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 JavaScript.

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.

For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.80 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

The first text or image appears after 7.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Your largest element takes 16.1 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 24.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

The layout shifts by 0.81 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 2.3 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Visually, the page fills in at 10.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Real visitors wait 3.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

Real visitors wait 340 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

Real visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

Real visitors wait 854 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

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

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 346 ms to 387 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.1 s to 4.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 216 requests on a phone: scripts 2.8 MB (58), other files 755 KiB (51) and images 286 KiB (41). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.26 g of CO₂e: 151.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

8 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

12 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

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

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

All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

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.

5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

2 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: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (6 elements).

Structured data found (ItemList and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “WebSite: missing name”.

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

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 26 pages on springstep.com and 2 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.

There is no https://www.springstep.com/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.

https://www.springstep.com/hombre has no <title>, so Google invents the link text in results.

https://www.springstep.com/413, https://www.springstep.com/marcas, https://www.springstep.com/510, https://www.springstep.com/nino and https://www.springstep.com/nina are marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If they are meant to be found, remove the noindex.

/ and https://www.springstep.com/about-us all use the title “Spring Step | Tienda de Zapatos y Accesorios para Hombre y Mujer”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

https://www.springstep.com/hombre has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

https://www.springstep.com/about-us, https://www.springstep.com/413, https://www.springstep.com/marcas, https://www.springstep.com/510, https://www.springstep.com/nino and https://www.springstep.com/nina and 1 other use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

https://www.springstep.com/hombre has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

https://www.springstep.com/about-us has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

https://www.springstep.com/hombre, https://www.springstep.com/413, https://www.springstep.com/primavera, https://www.springstep.com/510, https://www.springstep.com/nina and https://www.springstep.com/sale took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 23 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

21 of 71 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'register')”.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 355 words of visible text.

The page uses urgency cues (a countdown or limited-time wording).

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel and Microsoft Clarity and 1 more (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.

Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 27 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
