Speed

10 to fix48
  • Render-blocking requests

    2.4 s

    2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.4 s.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    1.6 s · 679 KiB

    About 679 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.

  • Mobile performance score: 48

    48/100

    Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    930 ms · 292 KiB

    About 292 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 930 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    650 ms · 486 KiB

    7 images could be 486 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 650 ms faster on a phone.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    650 ms · 162 KiB

    14 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (162 KiB).

  • Font display

    500 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 500 ms).

  • Legacy JavaScript

    350 ms · 32 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 32 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.

  • Document request latency

    371 KiB

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

  • 5 long tasks on the main thread

    5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 286 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • 1 third-party service on the page

    1 third-party service load with your homepage (Usercentrics CMP), adding 191 KiB and 189 ms of main-thread time.

  • 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.

2 checks passed
  • Main-thread work: 1.8 s

    A phone's processor spends 1.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.1 s of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.

  • Server response: 477 ms

    477 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 477 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 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: 13.1 s

    13.1 s

    Your largest element takes 13.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • First Contentful Paint: 6.5 s

    6.5 s

    The first text or image appears after 6.5 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 18.5 s

    18.5 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 18.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 9.4 s

    9.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 9.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.19

    0.19

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.19 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.156

    0.156

    The layout shifts by 0.156 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.

  • 3 images without width and height

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

  • Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors

    -6%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 163 ms to 152 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

    -8%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.7 s to 1.6 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

5 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 1.8 s

    1.8 s

    Real visitors wait 1.8 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 127 ms

    127 ms

    Real visitors wait 127 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user FCP: 1.5 s

    1.5 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 1.5 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Real-user TTFB: 621 ms

    621 ms

    Real visitors wait 621 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Total Blocking Time: 156 ms

    156 ms

    Scripts block the page for only 156 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight

1 to fix85
  • Page weight: 3.0 MB in 100 requests

    3.0 MB

    Your homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 100 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (69), images 941 KiB (14) and HTML 555 KiB (1). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • 3 images in older formats

    3 images (133 KiB) 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.

  • About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.85 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.85 g of CO₂e: 102.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • 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

3 to fixGoogle 9295
  • 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.

  • 1 button without a name

    1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (47 elements)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 47 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 45 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: 45 passed and 2 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

4 to fixGoogle 8586
  • No structured data

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

  • Meta description is long (163 characters)

    Your meta description is 163 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

  • No social preview image

    No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

  • 4 links crawlers can't follow

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

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

  • 260 internal links, 9 external

    The homepage links to 260 pages on bcf.ch and 9 external pages.

5 checks passed
  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “BCF”.

  • Title: 63 characters

    Your title is a healthy 63 characters: “BCF – La banque de proximité des fribourgeoises et fribourgeois”.

  • Canonical URL set

    The canonical URL is https://www.bcf.ch/fr.

  • 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.bcf.ch/fr-sitemap.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 /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 (950 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix93
  • 2 pages share a title

    /fr and /fr/prives all use the title “BCF – La banque de proximité des fribourgeoises et fribourgeois”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 126 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 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.

  • 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

1 to fixGoogle 9693
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

    1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 (Unauthorized)”.

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    22 of 22 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Security and trust

1 to fix93
  • No Content-Security-Policy

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

  • HTTP/1.1 only

    The server only offers HTTP/1.1, so browsers open several connections and load files more slowly. Most hosts and CDNs turn on HTTP/2 with a setting.

  • 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.

6 checks passed
  • Served over HTTPS

    The homepage is served over HTTPS (bcf.ch).

  • Valid certificate (123 days left)

    The certificate from DigiCert Inc · DigiCert EV RSA CA G2 verifies for bcf.ch and is valid for another 123 days.

  • Protected from clickjacking

    X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.

  • HSTS enabled

    Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.

  • http:// redirects to https

    http://bcf.ch redirects to the secure version.

  • All 44 links work

    All 44 links checked from your homepage (40 internal, 4 external) answered without errors.

Domain and trust

  • No CAA record

    bcf.ch 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.

Content and conversion

3 to fix67
  • 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 analytics detected

    No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.

  • Only about 236 words

    The homepage has only about 236 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • 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.

3 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Aide | Contact”.

  • 1 call to action

    The homepage has 1 call to action, for example “Aide | Contact”.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 1 phone link and 0 email links.

Email authentication

2 to fix60
  • DMARC is monitor-only (p=none)

    DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be bcf.ch is still delivered. Reports are on, so moving to quarantine is the next step.

  • No DKIM key on the usual selectors

    We found no DKIM key on the selectors the big email providers use. If you send through one of them, turning on DKIM signing improves delivery.

  • Email authentication score: 60/100

    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.

1 checks passed
  • SPF in place (~all)

    An SPF record lists your sending servers and marks other mail as suspicious (~all): “v=spf1 include:spf.swisscom.com include:_spf-dc2.successfactors.com include:_spf-dc12.successfactors.com ~all”.

Privacy and tracking

  • 3 cookies set on arrival

    3

    Opening the homepage sets 3 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 6 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 6 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

2 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Usercentrics

    A consent management tool (Usercentrics) 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).
