srigokulkrishnan.com website review

17 images could be 5.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.5 s faster on a phone.

About 190 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.

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

Your mobile performance score is 64. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

About 99 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 460 ms faster on a phone.

Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 200 ms).

31 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google Fonts and plyr.io and others), adding 215 KiB and 157 ms of main-thread time.

5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 112 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

18 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

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.

Your largest element takes 21.4 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 22.8 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

The first text or image appears after 2.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

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

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.

Your homepage downloads 6.3 MB in 41 requests on a phone: images 5.7 MB (25), scripts 372 KiB (3) and fonts 145 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

2 images weigh 3.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

8 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example homedeco.png at 1,920 px wide, shown at 348 px. Resized copies would save about 3.7 MB.

11 images (5.6 MB) 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.

9 images further down the page (5.4 MB) 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 1.80 g of CO₂e: 215.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

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

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

Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

Your title is only 18 characters: “Sri Gokul Krishnan”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

Your meta description is 170 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

No XML sitemap at https://www.srigokulkrishnan.com/sitemap.xml, so Google discovers your pages only by following links.

There is no robots.txt at srigokulkrishnan.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.

Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.

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

The homepage links to 10 pages on srigokulkrishnan.com and 5 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.srigokulkrishnan.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.srigokulkrishnan.com/homedeco and https://www.srigokulkrishnan.com/closet use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

We fetched 5 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

3 of 9 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

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.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

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 426 words of visible text.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, 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.

Opening the homepage sets 2 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 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
