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
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.4 s · 216 KiB15 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (216 KiB).
5,437 HTML elements
The page has 5,437 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 106 KiBAbout 106 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 68
68/100Your mobile performance score is 68. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (PayPal, Shopify and staq-cdn.com and others), adding 782 KiB and 521 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
450 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 450 ms.
Legacy JavaScript
350 ms · 36 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 36 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 350 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 3.5 s
A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 958 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Shopify adds 231 ms
231 msShopify costs a phone 231 ms of main-thread work and 466 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.
PayPal adds 252 ms
252 msPayPal costs a phone 252 ms of main-thread work and 232 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
150 ms · 204 KiB8 images could be 204 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 33 KiBAbout 33 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 64 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.2 MB in 318 requests
3.2 MBYour homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 318 requests on a phone: other files 1.0 MB (151), scripts 994 KiB (106) and images 938 KiB (47). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (44 KiB) is 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (20 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.91 g of CO₂e: 109.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Your title is only 11 characters: “CarbonPhone”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (BreadcrumbList, FAQPage, Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: sameAs is an empty list”.
255 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 255 pages on carbonphone.de and 4 external pages.
6 checks passed

Open Graph tags complete

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://carbonphone.de/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 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: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,568 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://carbonphone.de/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
3 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 3 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://carbonphone.de/collections/xiaomi/Smartphones, whose canonical is https://carbonphone.de/collections/xiaomi/smartphones. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
4 pages without an H1
https://carbonphone.de/collections/top-deals, https://carbonphone.de/collections/handys-smartphones, https://carbonphone.de/collections/xiaomi/Smartphones and https://carbonphone.de/collections/huawei/Smartphones have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
2 pages with very little text
https://carbonphone.de/collections/top-deals and https://carbonphone.de/collections/handys-smartphones 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.
