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
Mobile performance score: 47
47/100Your 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 KiBAbout 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 KiB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (365 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
450 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Facebook adds 404 ms
404 msFacebook 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 KiBAbout 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 msGoogle 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 KiB4 images could be 90 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
30 KiBPolyfills 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.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 11.7 MB in 95 requests
11.7 MBYour 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 gBy 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
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
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
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
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.

Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
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.
