Speed

10 to fix47
  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    4.5 s · 634 KiB

    About 634 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 4.5 s faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.3 s · 3.6 MB

    36 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (3.6 MB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.2 s

    12 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 47

    47/100

    Your mobile performance score is 47 (desktop: 81). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Improve image delivery

    50 ms · 2.9 MB

    13 images could be 2.9 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 50 ms faster on a phone.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, cookiepro.com and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.5 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    640 ms · 105 KiB

    About 105 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 640 ms faster on a phone.

  • Google CDN adds 555 ms

    555 ms

    Google CDN costs a phone 555 ms of main-thread work and 741 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.

  • Minify CSS

    450 ms · 7 KiB

    7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • Main-thread work: 2.6 s

    A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 9 long tasks on the main thread

    9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 249 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Document request latency

    30 KiB

    The HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 81 but mobile only 47. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    9 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 9 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.

  • Minify JavaScript

    2 KiB

    2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 6 ms

    6 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 6 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

6 to fix100
  • First Contentful Paint: 8.5 s

    8.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 8.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 12.4 s

    12.4 s

    Your largest element takes 12.4 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “By clicking “Accept All Cookies”, you agree to the storing …”.

  • Time to Interactive: 14.5 s

    14.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 14.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 8.5 s

    8.5 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 8.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 399 ms

    399 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 399 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • 4 images without width and height

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

9 checks passed
  • Passes Core Web Vitals for real visitors

    Real Chrome users on phones pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)).

  • Real-user LCP: 1.9 s

    1.9 s

    Real visitors wait 1.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 61 ms

    61 ms

    Real visitors wait 61 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.00

    0.00

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.1 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 517 ms

    517 ms

    Real visitors wait 517 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 26% faster for real visitors

    -26%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 82 ms to 62 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) got 21% faster for real visitors

    -21%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.052

    0.052

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.052, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

4 to fix38
  • Page weight: 5.4 MB in 70 requests

    5.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 5.4 MB in 70 requests on a phone: images 3.5 MB (26), scripts 1.2 MB (16) and other files 409 KiB (10). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images over 500 KB

    3 images weigh 2.0 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 12 images in older formats

    12 images (3.2 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.

  • 10 images below the first screen load straight away

    10 images further down the page (2.4 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit

    1.54 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.54 g of CO₂e: 184.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

1 checks passed
  • Images are sized for phones

    No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.

Accessibility

4 to fixGoogle 8993
  • Invalid ARIA attributes

    1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.

  • 2 images without alt text

    2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 1 form field without a label

    1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

    Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

1 checks passed
  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 44 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

6 to fixGoogle 7578
  • Title is short (15 characters)

    Your title is only 15 characters: “XpresSpa | Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • No XML sitemap

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

  • No robots.txt

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

  • 2 links crawlers can't follow

    2 links have no real href, so search engines can't follow them.

  • 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.

  • Open Graph partly set

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

  • 38 internal links, 33 external

    The homepage links to 38 pages on xpresspa.com and 33 external pages.

3 checks passed
  • Meta description: 147 characters

    Your meta description is 147 characters: “XpresSpa.com - Airport Spa Treatments, Relaxing Massagers, Soothing Soaps, Comfortable Neck Pillows, Travel Accessories…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “This is your time.”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

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://xpresspa.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

    There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (348 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

3 to fix64
  • 1 linked page is broken

    Your homepage links to https://xpresspa.com/book-an-appointment, which answers with an error. Visitors hit a dead end and search engines drop it.

  • 6 pages point its canonical at the homepage

    https://xpresspa.com/locations, https://xpresspa.com/services, https://xpresspa.com/xwell-rewards, https://xpresspa.com/gift-cards, https://xpresspa.com/terms-and-conditions and https://xpresspa.com/privacy-policy declare the homepage as their canonical URL, which tells Google they are copies of the homepage and keeps them out of search results. A site-wide template setting usually causes this.

  • 6 pages share a meta description

    https://xpresspa.com/locations, https://xpresspa.com/services, https://xpresspa.com/xwell-rewards, https://xpresspa.com/gift-cards, https://xpresspa.com/terms-and-conditions and https://xpresspa.com/privacy-policy use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

  • 2 pages with very little text

    https://xpresspa.com/locations and https://xpresspa.com/services have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

  • 7 internal pages checked

    We fetched 7 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

5 checks passed
  • Every page has a meta description

    All 6 pages that loaded have a meta description.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 6 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

3 to fixGoogle 9285
  • 5 small tap targets

    5 of 12 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

  • 1 distorted image

    1 image is displayed at the wrong aspect ratio, so it looks stretched or squashed.

1 checks passed
  • 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 297 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 297 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: “Take 20% off your first order”.

  • 10 calls to action

    The homepage has 10 calls to action, for example “Take 20% off your first order”, “SHOP” and “SHOP ALL”.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.

Privacy and tracking

  • 1 cookie set on arrival

    1

    Opening the homepage sets 1 cookie (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 11 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 11 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

2 checks passed
  • Consent tool: OneTrust

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

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