Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
3.0 s · 1.1 MBAbout 1.1 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 3.0 s faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.1 s · 216 KiB18 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (216 KiB).
Main-thread work: 4.7 s
A phone's processor spends 4.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.8 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (rebuyengine.com, Google Tag Manager and Clarity and others), adding 9.4 MB and 924 ms of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 53
53/100Your mobile performance score is 53. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Shopify adds 89 ms
89 msShopify costs a phone 89 ms of main-thread work and 8.5 MB 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.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 496 KiB15 images could be 496 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
730 ms · 95 KiBAbout 95 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 730 ms faster on a phone.
Legacy JavaScript
400 ms · 65 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 65 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 400 ms faster on a phone.
rebuyengine.com adds 288 ms
288 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 288 ms of main-thread work and 332 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.
1,748 HTML elements
The page has 1,748 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
10 long tasks on the main thread
10 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 224 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
150 ms8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 150 ms.
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.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 14.2 MB in 228 requests
14.2 MBYour homepage downloads 14.2 MB in 228 requests on a phone: media 11.1 MB (3), scripts 1.5 MB (83) and images 654 KiB (31). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
213 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example XRaySliderMockupV2-ezgif.com-video-to-gif-converter.gif at 400 px wide, shown at 72 px. Resized copies would save about 213 KiB.
1 image in older formats
1 image (301 KiB) is 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.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (112 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 4.0 g of CO₂ per visit
4.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.03 g of CO₂e: 483.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Invalid ARIA attributes
3 elements use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text (8 elements)
[role="img"] and [role="image"] elements must have alternative text: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (5 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
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 checks passed
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 6 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
173 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 173 pages on stoko.com and 4 external pages.
7 checks passed

Your meta description is 157 characters: “The world's only clothing with invisible support. Stoko Supportive Apparel builds knee, hip and lower back support into…”.
Title: 52 characters
Your title is a healthy 52 characters: “Stoko | Knee, Hip & Back Support, Built Into Apparel”.
Canonical URL set

Structured data in place
Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete

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://stoko.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (833 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://stoko.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
4 pages share 2 titles
https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-short and https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-short-ab all use the title “Stoko | Men's Supportive Short | The Best Hip & Back Support”, and 1 other title repeat too. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
4 pages share a meta description
https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-short and https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-short-ab use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-tight-ab, whose canonical is https://stoko.com/products/mens-supportive-tight. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
10 pages without an H1
https://stoko.com/collections/mens, https://stoko.com/collections/accessories, https://stoko.com/pages/support, https://stoko.com/pages/activities-ski, https://stoko.com/pages/activities-golf and https://stoko.com/pages/activities-hike and 4 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

Content and conversion
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 49 testimonial or review blocks. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
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 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 386 words of copy
The homepage carries about 386 words of visible text.
3 checks passed

On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “SHOP MEN'S” and “SHOP WOMEN'S”.
34 calls to action

7Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Meta Pixel and 2 mores (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.
32 cookies set on arrival
32Opening the homepage sets 32 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected

46 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 46 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 stoko.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
Apps on your store
Your storefront loads 12 apps. Each one is code from another company running for your shoppers.
