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

Live view · interaction off

Speed

5 to fix75
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    1.1 s · 535 KiB

    54 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (535 KiB).

  • Render-blocking requests

    1.6 s

    13 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.

  • Improve image delivery

    900 ms · 1.8 MB

    10 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 75

    75/100

    Your mobile performance score is 75. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 180 ms

    180 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 180 ms of main-thread work and 371 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.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and lfeeder.com and others), adding 747 KiB and 373 ms of main-thread time.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    150 ms · 218 KiB

    About 218 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.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 32 KiB

    About 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • 3 long tasks on the main thread

    3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 97 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    13 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 13 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 0.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 442 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 113 ms

    113 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 113 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

7 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: 5.9 s

    5.9 s

    Your largest element takes 5.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • Time to Interactive: 8.7 s

    8.7 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 8.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.24

    0.24

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.24 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Tap response (INP) got 29% slower for real visitors

    +29%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 128 ms to 170 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Speed Index: 4.8 s

    4.8 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 4.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 5 images without width and height

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

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    +6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.0 s to 2.2 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

7 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors wait 2.2 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 170 ms

    170 ms

    Real visitors wait 170 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • 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: 460 ms

    460 ms

    Real visitors wait 460 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s

    1.7 s

    The first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

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

  • Total Blocking Time: 48 ms

    48 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 48 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

5 to fix33
  • 1 image over 500 KB

    Dogsuppy-nieuw.png weighs 1,001 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.

  • 5 images far larger than shown

    541 KiB

    5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Dogsuppy-nieuw.png at 1,200 px wide, shown at 360 px. Resized copies would save about 541 KiB.

  • Page weight: 3.3 MB in 76 requests

    3.3 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 76 requests on a phone: images 2.2 MB (29), scripts 802 KiB (21) and fonts 207 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 7 images in older formats

    7 images (1.8 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.

  • 6 images below the first screen load straight away

    6 images further down the page (1.8 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.92 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.92 g of CO₂e: 110.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Accessibility

6 to fixGoogle 8591
  • Orphan list items

    Some list items are not inside a list.

  • 3 text elements with low contrast

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

  • Links look like plain text

    2 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • 2 links without text

    2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • Headings should not be empty (1 element)

    Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 22 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 41 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 47 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 41 passed and 6 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

3 to fixGoogle 9288
  • Title is long (69 characters)

    Your title is 69 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “E-fulfilment services & centre | Active Ants Fulfilment | Active Ants”.

  • 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.

  • 65 internal links, 6 external

    The homepage links to 65 pages on activeants.com and 6 external pages.

6 checks passed
  • Meta description: 158 characters

    Your meta description is 158 characters: “E-Fulfilment services with a unique approach. Close to every major eCommerce market with fulfilment centres located in …”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “We take care of your webshop’s fulfilment”.

  • Canonical URL set

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

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization.

  • robots.txt in place

    robots.txt is in place.

  • XML sitemap found

    Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.activeants.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • No llms.txt

    There is no /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, 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 (710 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

100
  • 5 pages slow to respond

    /fulfilment-solutions/process/returns, /fulfilment-solutions/software, /fulfilment-solutions/integrations, /fulfilment-solutions/industry-expertise and /fulfilment-solutions/industry-expertise/health-beauty took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 38 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

7 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Every page has a meta description

    All 15 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 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 9287
  • 4 small tap targets

    4 of 20 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.

  • 2 JavaScript errors while loading

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

  • 1 low-resolution image

    1 image is served at too low a resolution for sharp phone screens.

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

2 to fix86
  • No HSTS header

    No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

  • No Content-Security-Policy

    No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

  • No clickjacking protection

    Neither X-Frame-Options nor a CSP frame-ancestors policy is set, so any site can embed yours in a frame.

  • No X-Content-Type-Options

    X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.

  • 1 link through redirect chains

    1 link go through two or more redirects, for example https://baselogistics.com/.

  • No Referrer-Policy

    No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.

  • No Permissions-Policy

    No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

  • No security.txt

    There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

5 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (activeants.com).

  • Valid certificate (71 days left)

    The certificate from Let's Encrypt · YE1 verifies for activeants.com and is valid for another 71 days.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://activeants.com redirects to the secure version.

  • HTTP/2 and HTTP/3

    The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.

  • All 45 links work

    All 45 links checked from your homepage (39 internal, 6 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    activeants.com has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

  • DNSSEC is off

    activeants.com's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

2 checks passed
  • Domain is 19 years old

    19 years

    activeants.com was registered in Apr 2007 through NameWeb BVBA. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.

  • Registered until Apr 2027

    activeants.com is registered until Apr 2027.

Content and conversion

1 to fix92
  • 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 704 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 704 words of visible text.

5 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Request a quote” and “Request a warehouse tour”.

  • 11 calls to action

    The homepage has 11 calls to action, for example “Order picking”, “Contact” and “Request a quote”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 3 customer or partner logos and 1 trust badge.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel.

Email authentication

90
  • Email authentication score: 90/100

    Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

3 checks passed
  • DMARC policy: quarantine

    DMARC tells receivers to quarantine mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.

  • SPF with a strict ending (-all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and tells receivers to reject anything else: “v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com a:hmkweb05.hamakaserver.nl -all”.

  • DKIM signing found

    A DKIM key is published (selector “selector1” and “k2”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.

Privacy and tracking

  • 5 trackers load before any consent

    5

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

  • 4 cookies set on arrival

    4

    Opening the homepage sets 4 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 13 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: CookieYes

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