Speed

1 to fix97
  • Improve image delivery

    350 ms · 306 KiB

    4 images could be 306 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 29 KiB

    About 29 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    100 ms

    1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 100 ms.

  • 1 long task on the main thread

    1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 87 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 97

    97/100

    Your mobile performance score is 97. That is in Google's “good” band (90 and up).

  • Main-thread work: 0.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 180 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 18 ms

    18 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 18 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

97
  • 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.

6 checks passed
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.5 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the image “Step2Play coach encouraging young players during a real soc…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 2.5 s

    2.5 s

    The page is fully interactive after 2.5 s.

  • Speed Index: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 2.3 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • First Contentful Paint: 0.9 s

    0.9 s

    The first text or image appears after 0.9 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Total Blocking Time: 37 ms

    37 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 37 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

100
  • About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.21 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.21 g of CO₂e: 25.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

4 checks passed
  • Page weight: 762 KiB in 26 requests

    762 KiB

    Your homepage downloads 762 KiB in 26 requests on a phone: images 557 KiB (5), scripts 157 KiB (9) and other files 24 KiB (10). That is a lean page.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 9698
  • 9 text elements with low contrast

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

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 12 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 42 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 43 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 1 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 10096
  • No canonical URL

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

  • 51 internal links, 4 external

    The homepage links to 51 pages on step2play.co and 4 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 136 characters

    Your meta description is 136 characters: “Player-first kids soccer coaching near Modbury and across north-east Adelaide, with private, duo, small-group, school a…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Help them take the next step in their game.”.

  • Title: 55 characters

    Your title is a healthy 55 characters: “Kids Soccer Coaching Near Modbury, Adelaide | Step2Play”.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • 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://www.step2play.co/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no https://www.step2play.co/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.

3 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, description and contact details; logo and sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,249 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix93
  • 2 pages share a title

    / and https://www.step2play.co/locations/modbury all use the title “Kids Soccer Coaching Near Modbury, Adelaide | Step2Play”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 25 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed

Best practices

Google 100100
3 checks passed
  • No console errors

    No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.

  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    7 of 7 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

Content and conversion

5 to fix57
  • 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.

  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a map but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • No analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • 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 opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • 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.

  • About 1,087 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,087 words of visible text.

2 checks passed
  • 4 calls to action

    The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Contact”, “Contact↗” and “Start the finder →”.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 5 testimonial or review blocks and a star rating.

Privacy and tracking

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • No known trackers before consent

    No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).

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 step2play.co, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
