Speed

10 to fix47
  • Mobile performance score: 47

    47/100

    Your mobile performance score is 47. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 4.9 s

    A phone's processor spends 4.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.1 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 (Facebook, Google Tag Manager and TikTok and others), adding 1.0 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    750 ms · 424 KiB

    About 424 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    450 ms · 365 KiB

    17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (365 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    450 ms

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.

  • Facebook adds 404 ms

    404 ms

    Facebook costs a phone 404 ms of main-thread work and 270 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 CSS

    300 ms · 71 KiB

    About 71 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.

  • 16 long tasks on the main thread

    16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 309 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 286 ms

    286 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 286 ms of main-thread work and 173 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.

  • Improve image delivery

    90 KiB

    4 images could be 90 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    30 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 30 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.

  • Forced reflow

    Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 334 ms

    334 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 334 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix67
  • Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    Your largest element takes 6.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “We use cookies to improve your browsing experience, persona…”.

  • Time to Interactive: 11.2 s

    11.2 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 11.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 995 ms

    995 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 995 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 6.6 s

    6.6 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 6.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user LCP: 3.1 s

    3.1 s

    Real visitors wait 3.1 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    +8%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 99 ms to 107 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +1%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.9 s to 1.9 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

6 checks passed
  • Real-user INP: 107 ms

    107 ms

    Real visitors wait 107 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.05

    0.05

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.05 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.7 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 800 ms

    800 ms

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

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.08

    0.08

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.08, good is under 0.1).

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.2 s

    1.2 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.2 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 11.7 MB in 95 requests

    11.7 MB

    Your homepage downloads 11.7 MB in 95 requests on a phone: media 10.0 MB (2), scripts 1.2 MB (48) and fonts 174 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 3.3 g of CO₂ per visit

    3.33 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 3.33 g of CO₂e: 399.3 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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 fix96
  • 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.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

1 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 5 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 9286
  • No structured data

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

  • 3 H1 headlines

    There are 3 <h1> headlines (“Suunto Race 3S”, “Suunto Run 2” and “Suunto Core 2”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.

  • No social preview image

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

  • 1 link with vague text

    1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 42 internal links, 5 external

    The homepage links to 42 pages on suunto.com and 5 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • Meta description: 144 characters

    Your meta description is 144 characters: “Adventure starts here - Suunto manufactures world renowned sports watches, dive computers and precision instruments for…”.

  • Title: 63 characters

    Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “Suunto sports watches, dive products, compasses and accessories”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.suunto.com/.

  • 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.suunto.com/globalassets/Sitemaps/sitemap_index.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix88
  • 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 https://www.suunto.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.

2 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.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (599 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix85
  • 4 pages without a meta description

    https://www.suunto.com/Product-search/headphones, https://www.suunto.com/Terms-of-use, https://www.suunto.com/Privacy-Policy and https://www.suunto.com/Support/Suunto-Webshop/faqsforsuuntowebshop/returns-and-refunds have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 1 link to non-canonical URLs

    Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.suunto.com/Redirects/For-navigation/Contact-information, whose canonical is https://www.suunto.com/Support. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

  • 1 page without an H1

    https://www.suunto.com/Redirects/For-navigation/Contact-information has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 40 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

4 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7791
  • Deprecated browser APIs

    The page uses 1 deprecated browser API that will stop working in future browsers (“Unload event listeners are deprecated and will be removed.”).

  • 3 JavaScript errors while loading

    3 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    19 of 23 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix70
  • No social proof

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

  • 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 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 733 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 733 words of visible text.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Shop now” and “Buy now”.

  • 5 calls to action

    The homepage has 5 calls to action, for example “Shop now”, “Buy now” and “Subscribe”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 tracker load before any consent

    1

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (OneTrust) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 10 cookies set on arrival

    10

    Opening the homepage sets 10 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 8 other companies contacted

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

    A consent management tool (OneTrust) loads with the page.

Security, domain, email and software versions
